What's new
in Samplitude Pro X5
Samplitude Pro X5 delivers a huge range of new features and an optimized workflow. Enhanced MIDI operation, new monitoring section, innovative visualization functions. This DAW for all-around and specialist use is packed full of sophisticated new tools for creating perfect sound.
Exclusive in Samplitude Pro X5 Suite: Exciting effects such as coreFX VolumeFormer, Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro and iZotope RX & Ozone Elements.
New! Monitoring Section
Say goodbye to meter-long cable connections and expensive routing hardware – the new Monitoring Section in Samplitude Pro X5 offers unprecedented flexibility.
Set up multiple monitoring paths and load them with effects. Play back your configurations and integrate a talkback mic if you like – this can be done easily using the mouse or shortcuts.
New! ARA2 support
A second-generation ARA interface allows for more comprehensive switching between Samplitude Pro X5 and ARA-compatible plug-ins. Time-consuming transfers are a thing of the past when integrating plug-ins such as Celemony Melodyne, since audio events can be opened directly here. In addition, ARA2 simplifies simultaneous editing of multiple tracks and clean transitions between clips without crossfades.
Another new feature is the simultaneous access to several ARA2 applications in a project. Want to correct pitch with Celemony Melodyne and edit specific frequencies with using Steinberg SpectraLayers at the same time? It's no problem with Samplitude Pro X5.
New! Tempo Track
Tempo now has its own track. Use automations to create elegant transitions between slow and fast passages.
Set additional buttons as helpful markers for beat and tempo change.
New! MIDI Polyphonic Expression
With MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE for short), discover the future of MIDI operation. MPE assigns each note a dedicated MIDI channel, which allows for parallel modulation simultaneously and independently of each other.
This way, compatible controllers such as the ROLI seaboard can output their full potential. Want to apply pitch bend to a solo or bring down harmonies using sustain? It's all possible with MPE.
Inspiration and atmosphere
Samplitude Pro X5 offers new sound generators for new ideas. Professional effects enable you to create one-of-a-kind soundscapes.
New! 11 virtual instruments
Discover 11 exciting new virtual instruments that are a cut above: Cello, Jazz Guitar, Wooden Clarinet, Handchimes, Bells and Glass. Included as a special extra is the Tiny Instruments Collection - Bongos, Congas, Shaker and Taiko - as well as brass instruments from the Vita range: Vintage Lead Trumpets, Vintage Mid and Low Brass, Vintage Cornets.
New! Convology XT Complete
Enjoy an impressive collection of high-quality impulse responses (2965 files, 4.6 GB) from classic reverb units and other vintage devices. The bandwidth of synths included ranges from guitar amps to tape echoes. Amplitude, waveform length, decay - Convology XT lets you build upon basic convolution with a wide number of parameters which can otherwise only be used for digitally created reverb.
Full control, everything in view
New options for automation are front and center in Samplitude Pro X5. Advanced tools for visualization offer users a better insight into their audio material.
New! Automation Shapes
Set predefined curve types to simplify your workflow further. Choose from a range of Automation Shapes and build gradual transitions between two points in an automation. Are there still issues with the audio? Not in Samplitude Pro X5.
New! WaveColor
The WaveColor tool makes frequency curves visible by using contrasting colors to depict its waveform. Pitch and sound characteristics can then be identified according to their color and saturation level. Unwanted noise and other anomalies can even be located even before previewing the track.
Stay in your flow
Selectively select, copy, and paste automation curves conveniently in Samplitude Pro X5.
New! Advanced MIDI controller editing
Transfer your highly dynamic performances and the virtuoso modulation of your best takes to other MIDI objects. Select specific controller data and paste it either partially or entirely onto other lanes. Explore even more creative freedom for making highly expressive compositions.
New! Copy functions for Automation Lanes
Particularly detailed or complex curves can now be copied simultaneously to any number of automation lanes on other tracks. For example, you can assign identical volume curves to any grouped instruments. Simply select the desired section, copy it via the sub-menu and paste it onto the desired tracks using the same menu.
Exclusive in Samplitude Pro X5 Suite
Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 7
Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 7 is one of the most advanced spectral editors worldwide. SpectraLayers Pro transforms sound into a unique visual world of multidimensional audio data. Its concept, based on frequency selection, enables sounds to be extracted, optimized or rearranged in a new, revolutionary way. Thanks to ARA2, SpectraLayers Pro is now more seamlessly integrated into Samplitude Pro X5.
coreFX Suite
Essential tools for mixing and mastering can all be found in coreFX Suite. This collection includes nine powerful components for sound creation: Five plug-ins for precise dynamic control, three delay effects for creating echo and reverb, plus a rhythm effect for modern production. When it comes to the fundamental stages of editing a production, coreFX is with you every step of the way.
Users of the classic Samplitude Pro X5 version get coreFX VolumeFormer, and all other coreFX as a trial version.
iZotope RX 7 Elements
iZotope RX Elements includes a stand-alone editor and VST plug-ins for resolving common issues with recordings such as clipping, humming, clicks and unwanted background noise.
iZotope RX 7 Elements offers everything needed to perfect an audio production.
iZotope Ozone 9 Elements
iZotope Ozone Elements contains a wide range of presets and macro controls for a faster, simpler mastering process. The Mastering Wizard analyzes your mix and suggests EQ, compressor and panorama settings that you can preview before applying.
Customize the sound depending on the kind of master you want – from radio play to streaming, you can get results easily and in next to no time.
