DISC Arturia Storm 3 Music Studio

Full Description

Storm 3.0 is music creation software which accurately emulates the universe of a real recording studio...

Synthesizers, drum machines, sample players, effects, mixing desk, sequencer...

...with the same sound quality, but for a lot less money!

Create your own studio: With Storm, you can choose the virtual INSTRUMENTS you wish to use: analogue synthesizers, drum machines, sample sequencers, scratch decks etc... drag & drop and in a few seconds your studio is ready - no more complicated connections and wires everywhere!

Compose in real time: Real time synthesis and EFFECTS, a user-friendly interface and a fully automated studio provide you with an unprecedented environment for music composition.

Share your experience with other users

As an integral part of the studio, the HALL is a set of interactive tools, giving the user the ability to collaborate on-line with others. The Hall offers file sharing and downloading, chat rooms, newswires, tips and tutorials.

Learn new styles of music: The COMPOSITION WIZARD is made to help users to quickly understand the general use of the program and the different sides of creating a song. And, if you think you already have enough experience in making computer music, it can help you to learn how to compose in music styles you are not familiar with.

New Features in Storm 3.0:

Storm 3.0 offers one main view to handle your entire project:

All layers can be reduced or closed so you can work the way you like. Want to play live? Just keep the studio window and jam in real-time. Want to edit, copy, paste, chunk, ... ? Bring the sequencer full-screen. Want to look for another drum machine or a voice loop? just open the Resources browser.

Choose instruments, effects, samples, or other Rewire applications from the Resources Browser

Use the rack to work in real time in your studio

Thanks to the studio overview layer, access all intruments within a mouse drag and check how your sound is routed through the effect

The professional mixing desk offers 3 sections: EQ, FX and Main. It can be reduced in size or even pulled out of the sequencer so you can place it on another window
