Samplitude is a good recording system. But one requires Sequoia to do intricate editing. The editing model in Samplitude is not the same as in Sequoia. Sequoia is the best sounding daw of all time in my opinion. The audio engine is very sophisticated.

I've always thought Samp sounded better than any other DAW I've tried.

Gear Nut Joined: Jan 2014 Posts: 99 🎧 10 years Samp Pro X3 Suite vs. Sequoia I've hoped to someday get Sequoia, mostly to edit piano classical recordings. It's expensive so not a casual decision. I sort of understand four point editing and have seen youtube demos where it produces clean edits in a fraction of the time.I know samp x3 does not do four point, but given the current deal on samp x3 suite, just wanted to make sure I'm not missing a buying opportunity. Is samp x3 at all uniquely useful for complex/delicate audio editing (classical piano) or is it about the same as other daws?I've looked for an upgrade path deal from samp x3 suite to sequoia and haven't seen anything. Anyone know about this?Thanks!

Your 96% estimate is incredible for $149 v. $3k for Sequoia.Anyone use Sequoia for 4 pt editing (especially classical recordings) - how close/different is Samp?

But it's not in the on-screen dialog.I see you're now a member of the Magix-hosted support forum, and that's the best place to ask such detailed questions.

Those of us who do classical production as independent engineers and producers have always felt we were being taken advantage of by the price differential, esp. since two of these three features have been unchanged through seven major releases. (Don't get me started on Sequoia service agreements and upgrade pricing!)My advice is to keep an eye out for someone selling a transferable Sequoia license, even if it's a version or two back. Then use that for your editing work, and do everything else in Samplitude. There are a few extra fade curves in Sequoia, but once you copy those to the correct Samplitude directory, the same audio files will open on either platform.David L. RickSeventh String Recording Yes the prices for upgrades to new versions are incredible, never seen anything like it. I'm a university prof and can therefore get educational pricing - but that's still $1500 for Sequoia.Just confirmed no upgrade path from samp x3 to Sequoia, no surprise there. Maybe I'll choke down $1500 at some point. In the meantime, as cheap as samp is now, I probably won't get it because I already have other daw software I would probably use first for routine stuff. You don't need Sequoia for classical editing.The crossfades available in Samplitude, the workflow etc. is just the top for classical editing (my opinion of course).Save money for a good audio chain!Never heard someone saying "I should have Sequoia to edit my production instead of Samplitude..."If you know how to edit, Samplitude is perfect.

Here... No, not the crossfade editor engine. I'm talking about The Magix Audio dsp code engine that runs the whole SEQUOIA daw. The one in SEQUOIA is very sophisticated and exact. To my ears, noticeably better than all others. On a different topic that you raise, crossfade editors in Samp. and SEQUOIA are much different. Not the same.Don't care what others say. I can show your ears what I mean here in my edit room. I was astounded when I switched to SEQUOIA 3 years ago.

Me. I have not had a crash in maybe 5 or 6 years. Last year I worked 16 hr days, 7 days a week for 9 months. Never a lock up or crash. VSTi, and rewire are flawless for me.

Did get me a new house and studio so it was worth it. Never again though. tutt I am curious what audition had that SAM needed to catch up with as stated earlier?

SRC is indeed very good in Sequoia, especially the highest quality (but slow) offline SRC.

"Why Audition?". And they clearly talked about its superior editing. I have the impression that Sampie and Sequoia are more popular in Europe. Is that true? But yeah, I thought they were the first with GOOD frequency analysis that comes with the DAW. Could be wrong. Again, Im mostly a defender as I see Audition 3.0 as wrongfully disrespected and often very misunderstood. you are basically correct in your assumptions.2 things to know:1) the feature that vid#2 talks the most about is object-based editing. Samplitude/Sequioa has been doing this since about 1992. This is the big deal. That & being a non-destructive editor when Soundesigner was still doing destructive edits. I used to capture audio & do restoration in CoolEdit.2) a more general point. SAMDEV does not talk about their audio engine, ever. However, those in the know have been able to figure out that key parts of the Samplitude sound is 80 bit processing in key parts of the audio engine. As far as I know, nobody else is doing that, and it means that Sequioatude is probably running an an engine far more accurate then almost any DAW (PTHD included). Sampie has also had "Elastic Audio" & the Spectral tool for several versions now (from 7 or 8 I forget which).Last point: Sequoia main market niche is in mastering. It looks to be eating into the SADIE/SonicStudio market share. As such, it is not a direct competitor with PT (although it could be).At this point Audition (which may be a fine application) is an orphan of to many corporate ownership changes.

Last time I checked the reaper forum the guy claiming files from all daws null was not looking close enough. The way a daw is coded DOES make a difference but I am not saying I know which one sounds better. The whole null test between sequencers is a VERY hard test to do correctly so it's always funny when people say "Daw A nulls with Daw B , your ears are wrong". as far as I have seen, Samplitude has never nulled with anyone (double negative, is that good grammer? ).
