Project5 is simply everything you need to create and perform today's music. Straight out of the box, you get a complete set of superb quality instruments and effects; powerful recording, looping, sequencing, and arranging; dynamic creation tools; and the ultimate open synth host.
Project5 Version 2 has been streamlined to put the features you need most—and larger than life sounds—easily in view and right at your fingertips. Project5 delivers the solid real-time performance, stability, and ease of use of traditional hardware music workstations—but, with the additional power, flexibility, and portability of PC software.
And Project5 is expandable—you have the freedom to use hundreds of DirectX and VST plug-ins and instruments, and industry standard sample formats. Now as both a ReWire Host and Client, there are even more possibilities to expand Project5 and extend your music world.
Powerful Sequencing and Recording
Pattern Editor
This dual-mode view doubles as a piano roll and step sequencer to provide a fast and extensive beat-making and pattern editing environment. Provides intuitive tools for creating flam, legato, and gating effects. Superimposes track, effect, and instrument automation with note data. Offers step- and real-time recording.
Audio Looping Tools
Click and drag to roll out tracks using ACID™-format loops that match your project tempo and pitch changes. Features automatic beat matching, flexible time stretching/pitch shifting, and support for multiple loops per track. Use the loop Editor to take your beats and loops to new worlds with the smoothest loop integration to date: offers per-slice control of effect automation, pitch, pan, and gain. Export ACID-format loops.
