It’s like working with a sampler, but directly on the audio track, without the need for an additional plug-in.

You can time stretch, time compress, transpose, rearrange, and layer audio events, working with samples or slices of samples. At first glance, part of the workflow looks similar to Logic’s flex time, for example, but it appears that MuLab’s audio sequences can do more. Any sample can be opened in the audio sequence editor, which provides 16 “lanes” for arranging audio.

Judging by the video below, these look like a really nifty way to get creative with audio. In what is certainly the biggest improvement over previous versions (and some other, more expensive DAWs, for that matter!), MuLab 8 introduces Audio Sequences. It looks like MuTools has implemented some very good ideas, making MuLab an interesting alternative for budget-minded producers.

The latest version comes with many new features, including audio sequences and creative time stretching. MuTools has released MuLab 8, a major update of its budget-friendly DAW software.
