Audio Production Features:  

n-Track Studio is compatible with third-party plug-ins like the popular DirectX and VST as well as ReWire to process in real-time audio signals on each track. Along with these, n-Track also supports VSTi and DXi instruments plug-ins for sample accurate software MIDI playback. n-Track includes a feature called Live Input Processing, allowing you to process plug-ins with live signals.

The program utilizes 16 and 24 bit processing, however a native 64 bit version is available which uses the full power of 64 bit processing on a 64 bit version of Windows. Built in effects include Reverb, Multiband Compression, Chorus, Delay, Pitch Shift, spectrum analyzer and Graphic and Parametric EQ.

n-Track Studio supports surround mixing, for 5.1-7.1 surround sound channel formats, for mixing and creating DVD audio projects. The software supports AVI and MPEG video formats so you can play video in sync with the song.

If you have a 64 bit version of Windows, the n-Track Studio software will perform as well as any professional software. However, it will still work pretty well with a Pentium III processor and needs at least 256 MB of RAM to run effectively.

One feature we liked from the Website was the option to post your own music, created with n-Track, on the site so others can hear what the software is capable of and what types of features they’d like to include.
 

Input/ Output:  

n-Track Studio supports 16 and 24 bit soundcards, single and multichannel. It is also compatible with a number of audio files for inputting like .wav, .wma, .mp3, .mid, .ogg, .flac and more. n-Track also supports EDL multitrack song files so you can exchange files with other recording programs. It also, like we said before, supports surround mixing for use on DVD audio projects. When you’re done mixing a song you can mixdown all the tracks into a single wav file for use on a CD or you can use the built-in MP3 encoder to distribute the song via the internet.

Help/ Support:  

n-Track Studio has several how-to videos posted on their site and on YouTube. It’s helpful, especially using complex recording software because you can see where there may be a problem and what they do to fix it. However, the narrator of the videos is very dry and that makes it difficult to follow. But they have videos for an overall product how to, how to record and the videos on the n-Track Studios. Otherwise, n-Track offers an FAQ section on their site, easy options to upgrade and an online support form you can send into the manufacturers.

With a compatibility of a number of plug-ins and drivers, n-Track is flexible to do the kind of music recording you want to do with almost any soundcard today available. It makes it easy to create your own songs whether it’s for use on a CD, over the internet or for a DVD.However, for more customizable Rack features, performance settings and editing tools, top-rated programs Reason, Ableton Live and Pro Tools LE might be a better fit.
