![]() ![]() The setup software will ask you to register your trial copy in order to use it. Don't worry and think positive, this way you'll be able to finish reading this review before installing the application! The download is a bit large, almost 100MB in size, so those of you with slower connections will have to wait some time. Sony Acid Pro, our client today, is a loop-based music creation tool with tons of features. If some of the programs that I reviewed so far were large, the one I will introduce to you now is huge. Unfortunately, they are not free, but their quality makes up for the price. Most Sony software products are useful for the owners of Sony Ericsson cell phones, but there are also a few powerful programs available for the rest of us. ![]() This was all about hardware, but Sony is also involved in producing specialized computer software. Acid Pro wants $100 for Tech Support via phone, and after paying $300 for their program there's no way I can justify paying that, especially when I'm sure they're just going to point their finger at N.I.What do you think of when you hear the name "Sony"? For me, Sony means bad optical drives (this is just my experience, I don't know about the overall statistics), excellent CD and DVD discs and the best CRT technology ever, Trinitron. has tech support via phone available, and I'm going to call back tomorrow and see if I can get someone else on the phone who may have some insight into this problem. They pretty much blamed the problem on Acid and weren't really willing to accept the fact that the problem has only occurred since I installed Maschine. on the phone, but they were not very helpful. ![]() I've spoken with one individual of Tech Support with N.I. I'd hate to have wasted my money on a Maschine that I can't use simply because it somehow disrupts Acid. This Maschine conflict has already forced me to postpone several sessions. Please help!

The sound occurs approximately 1/3 of a second after the audio files SHOULD be triggered (when the record function is triggered or I am recording). What I mean by this is: I can see my audio files in Acid while I play the Acid project I'm working on. However, ever since I installed the Maschine & Maschine software, I have been having the following problems with Acid Pro (even if Maschine software is not turned on and the Maschine hardware controller is not plugged in):ġ.) There is a delay of approximately 1/3 of a second that occurs any time I record and/or trigger the record feature. I'd also love to use it for live performances. I'd really like to incorporate it into my creative process. I bought a Maschine last week, and I love it.
