Motu - Digital Performer 12 (licence)

A comprehensive workstation for audio, MIDI and music creation

MOTU Digital Performer 12 is a comprehensive digital audio workstation designed to simultaneously record, edit, arrange, mix, process and master audio and MIDI tracks. Available on Mac and Windows, it is aimed at musicians and producers as well as film composers, post-production studios and live performers.

DP12 introduces several major features, starting with Dolby Atmos immersive mixing. The application allows you to work with multi-channel set-ups up to 9.1.6, with support for beds, audio objects and panning metadata. Dolby Atmos rendering is built-in to prepare productions specifically for compatible platforms.

AI-assisted Stem Separation allows you to extract different elements from a complete mix, such as drums, bass, guitars, vocals, string sections or brass sections. The resulting stems can then be remixed, processed or used to create new productions.

The Arrangement Strip makes it easier to build and reorganise tracks by allowing you to manipulate the different sections of a project directly. The improved Track Freeze feature, meanwhile, frees up resources whilst allowing you to continue working on frozen tracks.

Digital Performer 12 also provides a particularly rich environment for music creation, with over 300 instruments, 1,100 presets and 500 loops, as well as 90 audio and MIDI effects plug-ins. The range covers, in particular, drums, pianos, guitars, basses, organs, string instruments, brass, woodwinds, synthesisers, percussion, vocals and sound effects.

With its MIDI and audio tools, customisable interface, music notation features, scoring tools and live production capabilities, DP12 provides a versatile environment for a wide range of professional workflows.
