n-Track Studio 4 is the latest version of the audio & MIDI digital multitrack recording software from Italy’s FASoft. Starting from the initial idea of being a souped-up multitrack recorder, it’s added many features over the years and now supports plugins, ReWire, surround sound mixing and a whole lot of other goodies, as the website says: You can record, playback, overdub just like with a tape multitrack recorder, but you can exploit the flexibility and power of today’s PCs for applying effects, realtime input processing, automated aux channels sends and returns, destructive and non-destructive wave editing. The program supports 24bit-192 khz recording, multiple channels soundcards, live input processing, CD burning, MP3 encoding and much more.

Other highlights of n-Track Studio:

• Built-in effects include Reverb, Compression, Parametric and Graphic EQ, Echo, Auto-volume, Pitch Shift, Chorus, Multiband Compression, Spectrum analyzer; also supports third party DirectX, VST 2.0 and ReWire plug-ins
• Supports ReWire technology by Propellerhead Software AB: signals from other programs (such as Reason, Ableton Live, Fruityloops and many others) can be mixed in realtime with n-Track’s own channels
• Supports surround mixing for creating DVD audio projects using 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 channels surround formats (see the screenshot)
• Multiple input and output soundcards or more than one soundcard are supported: you can record multiple tracks at a time and output to more than one stereo output. Each output channels has its own master channel effects and volume contro
