Steven,
Does this mean that we are going to have to repurchase
all the music CDs from smartsound in order for it to work?Digital Juice’s Stack Tracks has had a feature like this
for awhile. I’ve never used it, but seen the demos.Mark

Mark,
As I understand it, it requires new music. So yes.
I have not tried Stack Tracks so I can not compare the two.

Dang… There goes my VISA card again… 🙂
Smartsound is so useful that I don’t think I’ll ever
be able to say “NO” to them.Thanks for the update on this. Looking forward to
my copy of SonicFire Pro 4.Mark

Having only ever used the freebie of SmartSound which came with Premiere 6.5, I am wondering if people use this program in lieu of a music library?
Is there enough variety within genres if you do a lot of projects?
This new one sounds interesting.Mike

There is a tremendous amount of variety. And you can quickly download what you need from the web site for a rasonable price. For example, say I decide I need some jungle drums. I use the program to find “Zimba Dance” and I buy it for $20. Done deal. I don’t know if the prices go up for the Mood based music, but even so, it is a great deal.
There were times when a library made more sense for something in particular, but now with the ability to dig into the innards of the music, there is no sense in passing up a great deal like SonicFire Pro 4.

My sense of using SmartSound has been that even if there aren’t a larger number of tracks available than a normal music library, a MUCH higher percentage of the tracks are truly useful.
I remember back in the late 80s when Soper Sound had a variety…one saxophone or two…

it’s true, the Firstcom CDs have about 3-4 good tracks out of 10-12 different tunes. I can’t believe that people really need so much soft-core porn sounding music, cheesy news bumper music or kenny g inspired themes. Maybe that is an indication that the composers only have a few hits in them.
I will check it out.

I knew they were up to something. I was wondering what they would do to keep improving the product. This is just what I would of ask for. When will it be released…any idea?
Thank You,
