Cakewalk - Guitar Tracks Pro 4
Guitar Tracks Pro Version 4 is a new version and look-and-feel for the leading software designed for the recording guitarist and singer/songwriter.
With Guitar Tracks Pro, you get easy multi-track recording, precise editing tools to comp-together the perfect solo or vocal track, a virtual mixing Console, effects arsenal, and the ability to burn CDs and upload your music directly to the web. At the core of Guitar Tracks Pro is a powerful engine based on Cakewalk's award-winning SONAR audio and MIDI technology. The SONAR engine ensures industry-leading sound quality, but Guitar Tracks Pro makes music production even more accessible with a sleek new interface that has been optimized to take your music from riff to hit easier than ever.
Guitar Tracks Pro 4 includes much more than just recording software: you get an amazing virtual guitar amp for inspired, arena ready tones—without disturbing the neighbors; an entire backing band of virtual instruments—always ready to accompany you; pre-recorded drum loops by some of the most in-demand drummers on the scene today; and instructional videos from legendary guitarists.
"When we sat down to design the new version of Guitar Tracks Pro, I was surprised at just how many great feature suggestions were coming from all areas of the company," commented Michael Hoover, Cakewalk's executive vice president of products. "The fact is that 3 out of 4 people who work at Cakewalk play guitar, so it was natural that almost everyone in the company had a personal interest in making Guitar Tracks Pro the best software it could be."
