This is the package to upgrade to Tracktion 3 Ultimate from Tracktion 3 Project version or Tracktion 2.

If you like sifting through endless menus and windows to make music Tracktion 3 is not for you. Based on a simple single-screen interface Tracktion is the fast powerful complete solution for turning your ideas into finished songs. And unlike the competition Tracktion 3 comes with all the power and plug-ins you'll ever need. So if you want to keep your music flowing—not locked in menus or limitations—you've come to the right place.

Composition is the first part of the music-making process and it's also the most important. If you're like many musicians you don't want your audio software to simply document your performances; you also want it to inspire them. So Tracktion 3 music software serves up everything you need to get your creative juices flowing right at your fingertips.

When it's time to dig in and actually record something is when you'll realize how different Tracktion 3 is from other audio software. If you've never recorded audio into your computer you'll be amazed at how quickly Tracktion 3 lets you get going—creating real music within minutes. That's because unlike most other music software which is designed around analog mixer concepts and routing Tracktion 3 is truly different. It uses a simple single-screen interface for all basic recording and editing operations—with a property panel that follows your every move providing pertinent information for the task at hand.

Once tracks have been recorded it's time to see if they cut the mustard. Thankfully Tracktion 3 has some of the best mustard-cutting technology out there. That's because Tracktion's editing power is as good as or better than software costing hundreds of dollars more yet it retains Tracktion's hallmark ease of use. As with most non-destructive editing software Tracktion's editing allows you to undo and redo your edits to your heart's content—so there's never any fear of messing up your song.

A new Marker Track allows display of all your markers in the edit. But Tracktion's markers are special in that you can treat them as clips much like audio and MIDI. So you can move them around split stretch and edit them. Name and color them as needed to identify different sections of your song. And store and recall them using lightning-fast key commands.

Mixing of course is the art of leveling panning EQing adding effects and otherwise accentuating individual sounds and instruments to get your song to sound just right. Most audio software accomplishes this through the use of a dedicated "mixer" screen which mirrors the faders and knobs of a traditional analog mixer. Tracktion software however has never had—or needed—a dedicated mixer screen because its users are actually "mixing" their songs throughout the recording process. This is really the genius of Tracktion and one we'll explore a bit here.

Once you've recorded and mixed your music you'll want to master it to give it that polished radio-ready sound. Or you may want to send it to a trusted musician or producer friend for a second or third opinion. Thankfully Tracktion 3 lets you easily do both. Tracktion's built-in archiving capabilities let you save and send your project to other Tracktion users so they can listen collaborate and edit. Of course you can easily export to a variety of formats such as .wav .aif and .mp3 to share with those not yet part of the Tracktion Collective. And because Tracktion 3 comes bundled with Mackie's acclaimed Mixing and Mastering Tools you can rest assured that the final music will rock as hard—or as soft—as you like.
