RipX DAW

The First of its Kind AI DAW

In RipX DAW, audio is stored in Hit’n’Mix’s revolutionary Rip format, a giant step up from waveforms, enabling full control over all aspects of sound.

For example, you can mix your favorite parts together and have fun experimenting with different tempos, effects, pitches and keys/scales. You can time-stretch, and adjust the stereo panning (including on mono tracks), volume, and EQ.  Even create loops and edit them during playback to create new music in real-time.

Copy and paste parts from one track to another, with tempo automatically matched.

New for RipX DAW and DAW PRO v7.5:

• Over 100 enhancements, including:
  • Significantly improved ripping and music detection for smoother, more detailed separation.
  • Enhanced note splitting, instrument, drum, sibilance, and chord recognition.
  • More accurate audio to MIDI export.
  • Better-sounding instrument replacement.
  • Faster recording latency with visual pitch aids.
  • Automation lanes with draggable handles.
  • Numerous other editing and UI improvements for a more enjoyable and intuitive experience.

Martin Dawe, creator of RipX DAW PRO remarks “For the v7.5 upgrade, we’ve honed in on perfecting RipX DAW, dedicating our efforts to enhancing our core Rip Audio technology and giving it a comprehensive makeover. We’re confident this free update will not only impress our existing users but also demonstrate to new musicians, producers, DJs, and educators just how productive, enjoyable, and distinctive RipX DAW truly is.”

Changing a Song's Musical Scale

To help get the right notes & chords, you can set the musical scale or key of the track – or click Detect and let RipX DAW work it out for you. Notes will snap to the pitches that are part of the scale as you change their pitch by clicking and dragging up/down.

Turn on Auto Pitch To Scale and RipX DAW automatically fits notes to the scale, whilst keeping it sounding natural.

The Randomize effect means you can set up a loop and hear sections of music played back in different scales – find the one that you like best.
