The next step in DAW evolution, Audio Design Desk has been built from the ground up to include everything that contemporary producers, video editors, musician or content creators need to supercharge your creative workflow. Using machine-learning, Audio Design Desk analyses your project to provide you with synced timing for every sound when placed in your timeline. This means that sounds will always land in the right place, synced to your video file to eliminate the need for continuous manual adjustments.
Intelligent importing algorithms create metadata for each individual sound that's brought into your project from the 40,000+ royalty-free sounds to choose from. Ideal for creating multiple variations of a passage, with Audio Design Desk, in only a few simply clicks you can load alternative compositions in sync with your files to submit to your clients.

Supporting real-time trigger controls also allows you to perform your foley sounds, loops, cues and much more using a traditional keyboard or MIDI keyboard for live feel and sound that's ideal for contemporary cinematic sound design.
