Using Acid V As A Plug-In - Arturia ACID V User Manual

2.2.3. Using Acid V as a plug-in

Acid V's interface looks the same in plug-in mode as in standalone mode.
Acid V comes in VST2, VST3, Audio Unit (AU), and AAX plug-in formats, for use in all major
DAW software such as Ableton Live, Cubase, Logic, Pro Tools, Studio One, and more.
When using Acid V as a plug-in, all audio and MIDI device settings are handled by your host
music software. Please refer to your host music software's documentation if you have any
questions about loading or using plug-ins.
Note that when you load Acid V as a plug-in instrument inside your host software, its
interface and settings work the same way as in standalone mode (see below), with a few
small differences:
• Acid V will synchronize to your DAW's host tempo/BPM when sync is required
• You can automate numerous parameters using your DAW's automation system
• You can use more than one instance of Acid V in a DAW project
• You can run the outputs of Acid V through any additional audio effects available
to your DAW, such as delay, chorus, filters, etc.
• You can route Acid V's audio outputs creatively inside your DAW, using the DAW's
own audio routing system.
