Description

Pro Tools Sketch is a non-linear, clip-based creation tool that lets you capture and play with your musical ideas anywhere that inspiration strikes. Trigger samples and loops, record audio, and capture MIDI performances to quickly work up sketches. Drag-and-drop clips and experiment with arrangements to create something you love. Use the editing tools to shape and tweak your audio and MIDI and then dial in the perfect sound with the onboard mixer and real-time effects. Export your arrangement to share and play or open in the Pro Tools Mac/Windows app for further editing and mixing. And because Pro Tools is the common language across the audio industry, you can take your Sketch to any studio around the world and collaborate with artists everywhere.

Every great session starts with an idea
• Experiment with samples and loops, record audio, and capture MIDI in a clip-based, non-linear environment, with 16 tracks and virtually unlimited scenes
• Play, stop, and rearrange clips and ideas on the fly
• Explore massive library of included and MIDI loops that automatically syncs to your time and tempo, making it easy to try ideas and build up beats
• Bring your own audio and MIDI loops into the mix for even more creative flexibility

Record Audio and MIDI
• Record audio clips using your iPad’s built-in microphone, or attach an external mic
• Edit and manipulate your audio with trim, fade, stretch, reverse, and pitch-shifting effects
• Play and record MIDI using onboard PlayCell and SynthCell software instruments
• Use the software keyboard and drum pads or an external hardware MIDI controller to capture performances, or enter and edit MIDI notes on the grid

Enhance with Effects
• Choose from a range of nine effects to enhance your clips, including chorus, compressor, crunch crusher, delay, EQ, LoFi, multimode filter, reverb, and saturation
• Add effects directly to your tracks or use the global reverb and delay controls
• Use the basic XY controls to quickly tweak effects or get access to all parameters for finer adjustments

Create Arrangements
• Create complete songs by organizing scenes into an arrangement
• Drag scenes into the Scene Arranger in the order you want them to play, and set the number of times to repeat each scene before advancing to the next one
• Experiment with the order, length, and combination of your scenes until happy with your arrangement

Export, Share, and Finish in Pro Tools
• Export arrangement as a .WAV mixdown that you can share and play anywhere
• Move your Sketch to the free Pro Tools Intro Mac/Windows app to use Pro Tools’ world-class editing and mixing tools to finish your creation

MuzikalaChristo ,

Incredible truly intuitive and music focused with excellent sound!

I’m smitten with this incredible piece of software from pro tools folks who give us this amazing tool absolutely free . I’m using it to compose a classic movie cue today and it’s just coming together very quickly and although I was wondering about ed, instruments placement location of mixer ,after just a half an hour I’m feeling completely comfortable doing it all within pro tools sketch. I’m sure as the day continues I will complete a full song with midi and audio . That is exactly the result I expected but didn’t get with Logic Pro on iOS ! All other iOS DAW creators take note . Now I have two excellent music focused daws on the iPad with this and Korg Gadget ! We now have amazingly powerful folks working for us on iOS ! I have goose bumps! 😁😁👽👽✌️✌️🤣🤣

Awesome…with need for minor tweaks!

First, wow… such an awesome and easy loop player and music creation tool! Fast and efficient and easy to manage. Second, free…I mean really!?! But here is number three…I would gladly pay additional for the ability to import sounds and loops for use with the installed synth and system. Adding the ability to import loops, short samples, etc., sends this off the charts! An amazing app already could become nectar from the Gods!

but the fire rises,

The fire of the wisdom! Starts, now,
It starts!

On behalf of iOS,
Thank you, for owning a heart so dignified, for your kindness and conveying such level appreciation solely by this unparalleled appreciation for the aesthetics, thank you for being our Messiah!

Enter the dragon, the fire rises!
