Samplitude is obviously not the first sampling program for Amiga, but it differs from the other programs by the possibility of editing different samples with different sampling resolutions. Any number of projects can be administrated simultaneously in windows of optional size. This is an easy way to exchange data between several samples.
	Samplitude offers another option: zooming with any depth desired is not only possible along the time axis (horizontal) but also in the amplitude range (vertical), an urgent need for higher sampling resolutions in particular. Up to three different zoom factors of one sound can be displayed simultaneously.
	There is a comfortable time-line-editor, which allows you to edit your multi-track samples non-destructive like in a DTP program. An unlimited number of ranges can be placed freely along the timeline using drag-and-drop-technology. You can synchronize the playback with external sources like a MIDI sequencer (MTC) or a video recorder (SMPTE).
	Samplitude Opus can playback up to 16 tracks simultaneously. Volume and panning position of each track are adjustable individually. The built in high accuracy mixing routines give you a top quality realtime downmix with as little loss as possible. If your processor isn't fast enogh you can always switch back to faster but more lossy mixing.
	Sounds can easily be manipulated by a whole range of software DSP functions. There's an FFT filter which lets you draw any frequency response you like with your mouse. The same filter can act as a powerful hum or noise remover to digitally subtract unwanted noises from your recordings. Other manipulation functions include fading, echoing, convolving, equalizing and many more.

Being invented and developed by SEK'D Software in Dresden, Germany, A.C.T. has taken over development of Samplitude Amiga in summer 1997 to allow SEK'D to concentrate on their PC ports and the development of high quality DSP functions (which Samplitude Amiga will benefit from as well) and move Samplitude Amiga even closer to the major sound application on Amiga.

Currently involved in programming, editing, testing and marketing of Samplitude Amiga are Marc Albrecht and Thomas Wenzel.

Since the question about support for third party soundcards arises from time to time we should state once and for all: ALL soundcards can be supported from Samplitude at no cost for the manufacturors. Required are well defined functions for STOP, PLAY, RECORD and some control tasks along with clear definitions what the hardware is able to do and what not. A.C.T. will work closely with all manufacturors being interested in serious support of their products.
