Tracktion Software Waveform Pro 11
Computer Music|August 2020
Does 2020’s update to this resolutely ‘different’ DAW add enough to keep things moving without compromising its unique proposition?
Tracktion Software Waveform Pro 11

Metronomic in its regularity, this year’s Waveform Pro update introduces another round of new features to Tracktion Software’s innovative DAW, as well as general under-the-hood optimization and stability improvements. We’ve been here many times before, so we’ll not waste valuable space going over the fundamentals of the software again – see the Waveform 9 review in 257 for a synopsis, and/ or head to the Tracktion website and download Waveform Free to get a feel for its gleefully idiosyncratic perspective and workflow. Instead, let’s get straight into the new stuff…

Making arrangements The new Arranger Track enables sections within the arrangement to be defined as ‘blocks’ for moving around. Simply create an Arranger clip, then drag it left or right to move or copy all audio and MIDI clips that fall within its bounds. Dragging one clip on top of another offers the option to replace or swap them; and if you select one or more tracks prior to dragging the Arranger clip, only the contents of those tracks will be moved or copied. It’s a straightforward take on an idea that’s been around for a while in other DAWs, making laying out song structure frameworks quick and easy.
