 What a Dream August 25, 2008
I love this product. I am a novice and this product has put a studio at my fingertips. I'm so overwhelmed but everything seems pretty simple with easy to understand help/tutorials. I have already made four quick songs and downloaded them into my mp3 for the gym. Now i need more loops, a keyboard, a microphone, a camera, a video camera and some turntables. So many ideas and so little time.
 Great gift July 28, 2008
I bought this for my husband for our 8th year anniversary.
He had been using a free trial version of it and really enjoyed it. Amazon had the best price. He really likes it...I think the only thing is that you really have to read the manual or know how to use such type of software in order to take advantage of its potential. I am very happy with this purchase
 poor sound quality June 24, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Don't buy this! The quality of sound you will get on your recordings is quite poor. I used to use a free dowloaded program called Audacity that worked so well. I got this ACID program on my knew computer. I am so unhappy with this product. It's okay for listening to myself from a practice standpoint, but the sound is muffled a little. I'm a classical guitarist. This is awful for my purposes of making CD's for people as gifts. And yes, I know all about settings, advanced settings, sound supression, etc. It's the program. Not me.
Crashed Computer, Poor Support. May 10, 2008

This software crashed my computer. The support was rude and they would not accept a return. I am stuck with $70 of useless software and Sony did not care at all. Very poor Customer Support.
A Great Software! March 13, 2008
11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Awesome, amazing, excellent, flawless. These are just some of the words that can be used to describe Acid Music Studio 7 - a software that allows you to produce original, high quality music. What this tool can do for you is simply astonishing, to say the least. You definitely get your money's worth, that's for sure.
Acid Music Studio 7 is ideal for anyone who's ever thought about producing music, regardless of what genre they're into: Techno, Hip Hop, Rock, Country... no problem. In fact, there's no other software I would recommend more than this one. It's flexible, powerful, and quite possibly the most user friendly software of its kind on the market today. As far as I'm concerned, you can't really make this software any more user-friendly than it already is. And although there are other, much more expensive products of this kind on the market, like, Cubase and Pro Tools (which I've taken for a test drive before), why would you want to pay multiple times more for a product that gives you the same results? Unless you're a professional music producer and you fear "looking unprofessional" in front of your peers for working with a software that costs less than a hundred bucks - that's understandable. Otherwise, forget it.
Beginners will be pleased to know that this software comes with a ton of pre-composed music files to get you started and give you some good practice. Most of these music files are "loops" but there are also many samples of snares, kicks, hats, stabs, strings, and other one-shots. This allows you to be as creative as you want. You can also modify each loop through a wide range of options, such as chopping them to bits and pieces, moving them around wherever you want, changing the volumes and pitches, mixing them with other sounds and even adding some effects to them. You can also record your vocals into it for a live session. With this software, the user is always in control. You can produce whatever music you want, at whatever level you want. The quality of the music files, by the way, is top notch CD quality. You can create your own mp3s and export them to your favorite player or burn them onto a CD.
For more advanced users, you can plug in your music keyboard to your computer or use any synthesizer software, such as FL Studio, for example, to compose your own, 100 % original music from scratch. If you have the interest for this kind of stuff, you'll be able to master this software very easily. Don't be fooled by reviewers who give this software anything less than five stars. This product is gold! I've been using Acid 2 for years and recently upgraded to Acid 7 and I'm absolutely thrilled with it. It's fun, it's easy to use, and it's suitable for people of all ages and skill level. Excellent for beginners and excellent for pros.
I highly recommend it!
