Cakewalk Dimension Pro
Virtual Synthesizer

Dimension Pro is the critically-acclaimed synthesizer that combines real instruments with advanced synthesis, giving you endless sound possibilities.

The immense two DVD sound library that ships with Dimension Pro makes it the ideal go-to instrument for musicians, while its deep editing and sound generation capabilities have a natural appeal to sound designers.

Endless Possibilities
Dimension Pro offers an abundance of vital, usable sounds that range from pristine realistic acoustic instruments, thumping basses and cutting leads, to complex, evolving atmospheres. This wide tonal range can be attributed to both advanced sample mapping and a powerful sound-sculpting engine with analogue sound generation that lets you mutate and recompose any sound you might imagine.

Features

Preset addicts

7 GB Library
Dimension’s library includes tons of thumping bass, grand piano, searing electric guitar, kickin’ drum kits, a full orchestral suite, instruments from around the world, and more. The library also explores the worlds of techno, trance and electronica, providing a comprehensive collection of synth leads, electronic basses, lush pads and gripping atmospheres.

Garritan Pocket Orchestra
Cakewalk and Garritan have joined together to offer sound programs based on the critically-acclaimed Garritan Personal Orchestra. The Garritan Pocket Orchestra, included in Dimension Pro, contains samples of all the major instruments in a symphony orchestra—strings, brass, woodwinds, and percussion. You can hear an example of Dimension Pro’s Garritan Pocket Orchestra in the Dimension web player’s “Dimension Songs” category.

Electronica Collection
Nico Herz of BigTone helped to create Dimension Pro’s breathtaking electronica palette. His experience and mastery have yielded an exciting array of synth basses, bold leads, thick stacks, pads, simulations and amazing effects. You can listen to some of his examples in the Dimension web player’s “Arps”, “Synth Basses”, “Leads” and “Pads” categories.
