// Array Studio Batch · $10 · Mac + Windows

We cracked ACID and Apple Loops.
Now tag a whole folder in one pass.

Array Studio Batch ACIDizes WAVs and writes real Apple Loops (tempo, beats, key, loop or one-shot) for an entire folder at once. We tested every tool out there, and none got it right on today's computers, so we built our own and made it the best one we could. Drop in your loops, check the detected tempo and key, and deliver. One app, one machine, Mac or Windows.

All of these. One $10 app.

If you've been juggling any of these just to tag loops, Array Studio Batch does that job in one place.

ACID Pro Sound Forge Apple Loops Utility Mixed In Key WaveLab Audacity

We tested all of them. None could ACIDize and write proper Apple Loops in one pass on a modern computer, so we built our own. Our ties to Sonic Foundry, the original creators of ACID and Sound Forge, got us there. Tag a whole pack in minutes, and get it right.

// 25 years in the industry

Formatted for the pros. Now it's yours.

25 years of professional audio formatting for companies such as Roland, Native Instruments, Loopmasters, Antares, Prime Loops, Acoustica Mixcraft, Sony, Magix, 1010music, and Soundtrack Loops. Our roots trace back to Sonic Foundry — the creators of ACID and Sound Forge — so we know these formats inside out.

// Stay on one machine

Tag a whole pack without switching computers.

No more hopping between an old Mac, a Windows PC and three apps just to get loops to play in time.

// What it does

One job. Done right.

25 years of formatting sounds for top producers and sample labels, focused into one tool: tag and deliver loops that every DAW reads correctly.

🍎

ACIDize WAV + Apple Loops

Real ACID metadata (tempo, beats, root key, loop or one-shot) and real Apple Loops AIFF files. These are the same writers as our full Array Studio, verified in Logic Pro, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Cubase, Studio One, Reaper and ACID.

The part everyone gets wrong
🧠

Tempo + Key Auto-Detection

Every file arrives tagged. BPM, beats and root key are read from the file name, the file's existing tags and the audio. Drop in 500 loops and check by ear instead of typing.

Detected, then verified by you
📁

Whole-Folder Batch Tagging

Load entire folders, click a track to see its values, and Apply to Selected to copy changes across the batch. Arrow keys step through the list. Save tag presets for your artist, copyright and comment fields.

Hundreds of files, one pass
〰️

ACID Transients

See the transient markers on every loop and adjust the sensitivity, or zero them for the clean ACID formatting professional packs ship with.

Pro-standard loop formatting
📦

Deliver Two Ways

Same as each file: every file keeps its own sample rate, bit depth and channels, ACIDize comes out as WAV and Apple Loops as AIFF. Or MP3, for demo and preview copies.

Masters + demos
🎛️

Batch Processing

Optional on the way out: normalize to a target level, remove clicks and pops, denoise, bit-crush, fade in and fade out. Tagging is never affected.

Five processors
🗂️

Save Where You Want

Next to the source files, into one folder, into a mirrored folder structure, or over the originals. You see exactly where every file will go before anything is written.

No surprises
💻

One Machine, Mac or Windows

No old Mac for Apple Loops Utility, no Windows PC for ACID Pro. Native on Apple Silicon and on Windows 10 and 11, fully offline, with one code for up to 3 of your computers.

Works offline

// Batch processing

Clean audio, on the way out.

Five optional processors in a fixed, musically correct order. Leave them all off to deliver untouched audio. Your ACID and Apple Loops tags are written either way.

01

Denoise

Spectral noise-floor reduction tames hiss and room tone.

02

Remove Clicks & Pops

Detects impulse spikes and interpolates across them.

03

Normalize

Peak-normalize to your target dBFS for consistent levels across the pack.

04

Bit Crush

Creative lo-fi quantization. An effect, not the export bit depth.

05

Fade In & Out

Short linear fades for click-free starts and ends, with adjustable length.
