What you get

  • The full Array Studio app: Make, Edit and Pack
  • Amp, Tape, Lofi, Array FX, Duck and Sample Manager (early access)
  • Free updates for life · Mac and Windows · works offline

Instruments are $10 each on Light, or get Pro for $99 with all three included.

Array Studio Light is the full sample pack studio, minus the instruments. Record, arrange, edit, slice, tag and deliver finished packs in one app, then add instruments when you need them.

You get the same Array Studio app as Pro: a 64-track multitrack with HQ time-stretch, the Kit Maker and Loop Fix editor, and the ACID + Apple Loops tagging and batch delivery we've refined over 25 years of making sample packs.

Early access includes the five FX add-ons (Amp, Tape, Lofi, Array FX, Duck) and Sample Manager with visualizers. The instruments DrumSmyth, Chord Spire and Double Scoop can be added for $10 each, or step up to Pro to get all three.

One-time purchase. Free updates for life. Mac and Windows, fully offline.

// What's inside

Make. Edit. Pack.

Most sample packs pass through five or six programs before they ship. Array Studio is the whole trip — make the sounds, cut them up, tag them properly, and deliver the pack.

1Make · Multitrack

Record and arrange up to 64 tracks.

A mini DAW built for sample makers. One project tempo and key drive everything — drop a loop and it time-stretches and transposes to fit, pitch intact.

  • Record armed tracks with count-in, punch-in and a crash-safe native recorder
  • HQ time-stretch (Signalsmith) for tonal parts, beat-sliced Classic for drums
  • DrumSmyth, Chord Spire and Double Scoop instrument tracks with a shared Piano Roll
  • Amp, Tape, Lofi, Array FX and Duck on every track and the master, with automation
  • Cut perfect loops straight from the timeline and bounce stems or seamless tempo-tagged loops
Record and arrange up to 64 tracks.
2Edit · Kit Maker

Slice it. Pad it. Build the kit.

One file at a time: trim, fade, fix the loop, process it, slice it onto the pads — then build finished drum kits and playable multi-sample instruments from the same pads.

  • Transient or grid slicing with per-slice fades, ADSR and curve shapes
  • Loop Fix trims or pads a loop onto an exact whole-number tempo, with tail blending
  • Drum kits for Ableton Drum Rack, Akai MPC, Deluge and numbered files
  • Multi-sample instruments for Kontakt / SFZ, Decent Sampler and SoundFont — auto-mapped by pitch
  • Per-slice key detection, MIDI extraction and a sample-chain builder
Slice it. Pad it. Build the kit.
3Pack · Tag & Deliver

Tag it right. Deliver the whole pack.

Every file on one page. Tag on the left, deliver on the right, and Run All does both in one pass — the ACID and Apple Loops metadata that makes loops auto-conform in every DAW.

  • ACIDized WAV and Apple Loops AIFF written byte-exact, verified in Logic
  • Auto tempo, key and pitch detection — flags clicks and mismatched tags before your customers do
  • Batch chain: resample, denoise, declick, tape machine, normalize, crush, fade
  • Export presets and hardware device targets (SP-404 MKII, MPC, Digitakt and more)
  • WAV, AIFF, FLAC and multi-core MP3 — saved next to the source, a custom folder or a mirrored tree
Tag it right. Deliver the whole pack.

// Instrument add-ons

Write the parts right in the studio.

Three instruments that live on their own tracks — each with its own patterns, sound, mix and effects. Add as many as you like; every render comes out identical, sample for sample.
