MOTU Digital Performer

Digital Performer is an integrated digital audio and MIDI sequencing production system. It provides a comprehensive environment for editing, arranging, mixing, processing and mastering multitrack audio projects for a wide variety of applications. Digital Performer allows you to simultaneously record and playback multiple tracks of digital audio and MIDI data in a totally integrated, creative environment. Digital Performer's award-winning multitrack sequencer design, combined with nondestructive digital audio editing capabilities, provide you with unprecedented flexibility and control over the audio you create. Check out the 'Ultimate Desktop Recording System" at the Apple web site.

Audio

Unlike other audio applications, Digital Performer does not place artificial restrictions on the number of tracks you can work with. Unlimited audio and MIDI tracks means Digital Performer is ready for as many tracks as your hardware will allow. Digital Performer supports a wide range of audio hardware including TDM (Pro Tools), Direct I/O, ASIO, Sound Manager and MOTU's own range of audio interfaces. Of course, Digital Performer supports high resolution 24-bit/96kHz audio.

Mixing

View your MIDI and audio tracks in a single, unified mixer. Configure up to twenty effects inserts per audio channel, and 32 stereo busses. Everything is automatable, including effects parameters with five advanced automation modes, beat-synchronized effects and sample accurate editing of automation data. The automation system features a rich set of user interface technologies such as event flags for discrete events and spline tools for manipulating control points. Automation parameters are displayed in meaningful real world values such as decibels and milliseconds - not arbitrary values (0-127).

Effects

Digital Performer includes dozens of real-time DSP-effects with easy to use graphical controls and complete automation. Combined, these included effects meet all the demands of today's audio production; you'll find two, four and eight band EQ, tube-simulation and distortion effects with the flexible PreAmp-1 plug-in, three reverbs, two noise gates including the MasterWorks Gate with real time lookahead gating, two compressors, a synthesizer-style multimode filter, echo & delay effects including a surround delay, chorus, phaser, flanger, the incredible Sonic Modulator and more. Digital Performer supports multiple processors so if you have a dual processor CPU, you get nearly twice as much processing power as a single processor. Digital Performer's multiple processor engine is fully compatible with all MOTU Audio System plug-ins - even those from third party vendors.

Sample editing

Digital Performer includes a built in waveform editor that provides all the features you expect from a premium editor such as a pencil tool for removing clicks and a loop tool for defining loops for your sampler. Plus, enjoy advanced features such as auto edit crossfades. Digital Performer's sampler integration allows you to transfer audio from your project to your sampler with a simple drag and drop operation. Because your sampler appears as a device inside Digital Performer, you can seamlessly share data. Digital Performer's PureDSP functions provide independent control over the duration and pitch of audio files with exceptional sound quality. Tempo-conform drum loops, add vocal harmony or even gender-bend vocal tracks. Digital Performer also supports Premiere-format plug-ins. Apply an effect directly to an audio file so you can free processing power or for export the audio to a sampler or other application. Both PureDSP and off-line audio processing occurs in the background so you can continue working.

Editing & MIDI

Digital Performer is simply unrivaled in the area of editing precision. All audio editing is accurate to a single sample. Edit MIDI with a resolution of 1/10,000.000 PPQ (pulses per quarter). When used with a USB MOTU MIDI interface, Digital Performer provides MIDI timing resolution to within a single MIDI byte Ð under 1/3 of a millisecond (six times more accurate than the closest competition). With Multirecord MIDI recording, you can record on an unlimited number of MIDI tracks simultaneously. With three continuous controller editing modes, creating continuous controller streams for the automation of your MIDI instruments is flexible and intuitive. Movie track and Quicktime support integrates Digital Performer with the video world, enabling you to see instantly how your edits relate to picture. Individually zoomable tracks, flexible window arrangement, and navigation tools allow for trouble-free manipulation within even the largest projects.

Editors

Digital Performer provides many flexible editors (Sequence Editor, Graphic Editor, Event List, Drum Editor and QuickScribe (notation). Whether you prefer list-editing, or graphical style display; score lay-out, or extensive drum-programming; fine-tuning of single MIDI events, or massive changes of entire sections, Digital Performer has an editor for your task. QuickScibe notation window lets you print out the whole score or individual parts. To help you follow the flow of your music, continuous scrolling moves the music under the wiper which stays fixed to the center of the window.

Surround Sound

Because a single type of surround panner may not be appropriate for every application, Digital Performer provides a choice of four panner plug-ins including a localizing room simulator. Each audio track can be assigned to any surround sound format - from LCRS up to 10.2. Sophisticated panning movements can be automated using Digital Performer's automation system. Include complete surround submixes or record the output of a surround reverb with surround tracks. Master your multichannel mix with a broad assortment of variable channel effects processors including the MasterWorks Limiter.

Awards and Recognition

Digital Performer has been awarded the Electronic Musician Magazine Editors' Choice Award for Best Audio Sequencer Software for three years in a row. The editors of Electronic Musician wrote: "Value: 5 out of 5. We just had to give this amazing program an award--for the third consecutive year. Digital Performer is a rock-solid winner."

Digital Performer has also been awarded EQ Magazine's 2002 Blue Ribbon Editor's Choice Award for Best Software.

Together, Performer and Digital Performer have been awarded the MIX Magazine 'TEC' Award for Technical Excellence and Creativity an unprecedented four times.
