The tools available in Magix's highly regarded recording package cover every stage of the recording process, from MIDI sequencing to mastering and CD burning. Version 8 adds some neat extras including analogue-style processors, a virtual drum machine and an Acid-style beat-mapping tool. SOS last looked at Magix's Samplitude back in was reviewed by Mark Wherry.
Development has continued steadily in the intervening years, and the application now stands at version 8.0, offering a range of minor refinements and some substantial new features. For the benefit of the uninitiated, Samplitude is a host-based 'native' Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) for Windows, which combines powerful multitrack audio recording and editing with MIDI sequencing and complete CD mastering facilities.
Its closest competitors are probably Steinberg's Nuendo and Digidesign's Pro Tools, although it arguably has a better claim to providing a viable 'all-in-one' package than either of these. Samplitude is aimed squarely at the professional market, and boasts a suitably comprehensive feature set. It offers a total of 999 tracks, supports the Direct X and VST plug-in formats, with full delay compensation, and can work with any hardware that uses the ASIO, WDM or MME driver standards. The ability to act as a Rewire host has been added in version 8, offering new options for integrating soft synths and programs like Ableton Live. Samplitude also includes high quality POWR dithering, a real-time convolution reverb processor, 5.1 surround mixing and support for a range of hardware control surfaces. Samplitude will install and run on fairly modest hardware; a Pentium II with 128MB RAM is all that's required. For basic multitrack audio production, Magix recommend a 400MHz Pentium II or faster, and a 7200rpm hard disk.
In reality, of course, the more processing power, memory and storage you can provide for any DAW, the better it will perform. Magix are at pains to point out that Samplitude supports older Windows versions, such as 98, NT and 2000, as well as XP.
This is commendable, but even so, I'd hesitate to recommend any Windows version earlier than 2000 for serious production work. Samplitude 8 ships on a single CD, and is copy protected with a WIBU Systems 'Code Meter' USB dongle. Dongles tend to be unpopular, and not without good reason. They're an inconvenience, they take up ports that could otherwise have useful devices attached to them, and there's always the fear that a dongle will malfunction, leaving you without access to software you've already paid for while a replacement is sought. On the other hand, many modern PCs have half a dozen USB ports built-in, and USB hubs aren't too expensive if more are required. For what it's worth, Samplitude 's dongle worked faultlessly for me during my few weeks of testing, and I managed not to lose or break it.
