Tracktion Unveils Waveform 13.5

Tracktion Unveils Waveform 13.5
Tracktion Corporation introduces Waveform 13.5, a major, free update for all Waveform Pro 13 users, delivering powerful enhancements to Clip Launching, Track Automation and overall performance.

Class-leading Clip Launching Workflows

Waveform 13.5 introduces several enhancements to a now class-leading Clip Launcher. These features streamline recording, optimize playback, refine arrangement capabilities, improve launching precision and inspire creativity. Specify the desired duration of a recorded clip, create fluid, expressive performances with Legato mode or effortlessly adjust a launcher clip's playhead position with precision using ‘Nudge’. The three new launch modes; Gate, Toggle and Repeat offer precise launching and are ideal for creating polyrhythms or intense stutter-like effects.

Enhanced Automation

13.5 introduces Clip-level automation that allows users to apply automation directly to Audio or MIDI clips. Automation can be applied to clips both in the arranger or launcher allowing you to synchronise with launched clips. By layering automation techniques and combining linked and unlinked curves, users can craft unique gates, risers, and rhythmic patterns with ease.

Automation curve handling has been enhanced to provide greater precision in shaping automation movements. Select from a variety of customisable shapes, bypass curves with a single click or easily scale or skew automation selections with the powerful new curve adjuster. Raise or lower points simultaneously with ease or completely warp a curve for creative effects.

Real-time visual feedback has been added along with dynamic, per-track ‘A’ icons that confirm automation is actively in progress. 13.5 offers four distinct automation modes, each colour-coded making it easy to identify which mode a given track is in. Classic Touch and Latch modes have been added to enable seamless live refinements and nuanced control.

Combining these features in a single DAW places Waveform on the cutting edge of automation.

Performance Optimisations

Beyond the major advancements in automation and the Clip Launcher, a series of under-the-hood optimizations have resulted in a smoother, more responsive user interface. The result is a faster, more seamless experience, ensuring uninterrupted creativity in demanding sessions.

Available now!

Waveform 13.5 is available free of charge to all existing Waveform 13 Pro users via the Tracktion Download Manager.

Waveform Free users can access the 13.5 features by purchasing one of the ‘Launcher’, ‘Recording Engineer’ or ‘MIDI Producer’ Feature Expansions.
