I am running Sequoia 13, and I'm not certain I'll move to 14, because it doesn't have any new features that I didn't already get with Samplitude ProX III.īefore buying a Sequoia license, I did plenty of piano editing in Samplitude, and got pretty darn fast at it.

The Pro X naming has confused things for Samplitude, but both programs are effectively at version 14 now. I didn't move to Sequoia until version 8.
I had past experience with object-oriented work flow in SAW, and didn't want to give it up. I came to Samplitude when it was at version 5 because of its non-destructive object-oriented audio handling. If you didn't have Sequoia, what would you use?To the best of my knowledge, the only other DAWs with 3 and 4-point cuts are Sadie and Pyramix. If you didn't have Sequoia, what would you use?ĭavid, have you used any mainstream daws that were close to the Sequoia 4 pt editing capabilities for classical piano? I assume the issues are (1) speed, time to go through large numbers of small edits and (2) getting totally clean results, no clicks, no evidence whatsoever. My understanding is you can work super fast in Sequoia and achieve #2 with less tedious painstaking work?

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. Maybe I'll choke down $1500 at some point.

Just confirmed no upgrade path from samp x3 to Sequoia, no surprise there. I'm a university prof and can therefore get educational pricing - but that's still $1500 for Sequoia. Seventh String RecordingYes the prices for upgrades to new versions are incredible, never seen anything like it. 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. Then use that for your editing work, and do everything else in Samplitude. My advice is to keep an eye out for someone selling a transferable Sequoia license, even if it's a version or two back.
(Don't get me started on Sequoia service agreements and upgrade pricing!) since two of these three features have been unchanged through seven major releases.
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. The other features like multi-user administration and batch scripts are mostly intended for big media organizations. Of all the Sequoia-only features vs Samplitude, the crossfade editor, 4-point editing and multi-synchronous assembly are the main ones that matter to classical recordists.
