 Sequoia needs no special DSP or audio hardware and works natively on host CPUs. The program can run on a laptop just as well as it does on a PC plugged into the studio. That means you can transfer your projects to mobile workstations - or anywhere else, for that matter. You remain completely independent until the project is completed while enjoying those possibilities normally only offered by a fully equipped studio: multi-track recording, professional cutting, high-end effects (such as the real-time space simulator or sound restoration tools), a complete digital mixer, real-time CD/DVD burning functionality and much, much more.
Sequoia was designed for the requirements of modern, effective teamworking. Within a network, multiple users can work simultaneously with the software. The integrated administration functions permit the assignment of individual rights of access and program configurations.
For years, Sequoia has been an integral part of leading broadcast and mastering studios worldwide, including the BBC, German public broadcasters WDR and MDR, Radio Bremen, the Viennese Symphonic Library and Sterling Sound in New York. For sound engineers, music producers, radio journalists or cutters, Sequoia is an indispensable tool for any type of professional media production. Registered users enjoy professional service, customer-oriented support, an exclusive forum and free support.
Complete solution
 Sequoia offers everything that a digital audio work station requires: Recording, mixing, editing mastering - in fact everything up to and including the burning of manufactured Red Book-compatible audio CDs/DVDs. You can of course also carry out DVD productions in the standard 24 bit with up to 192 kHz. The feature set allows a complete In-the-Box-Work, from composing with MIDI and VSTi up to the final CD/DVD in one software:
- Low-Latency-Audio-Engine,
- VST*- and DirectX-Plugins
- automatic latency compensation in the complete signal flow,
- external remote control
- realtime room simulator with convolution
Unique Object-oriented Editing
As an enhancement to the traditional concept of mixer-supported editing of complete tracks, all versions offer countless possibilities for direct real-time sample editing. Recorded audio tracks can thus be cut into as many objects as you wish.
Every object can be edited with individual fades and effects, such as Equalizer, Timestretching, Pitchshifting or plugins. Sequoia also offers Aux-Sends on the object level, the well-known linearphase mastering effects, and a widely variable signal flow.
First Class Effect Settups
From mixing to mastering, all production needs are met: Award-winning equalizers, various dynamic processors, Timestretching, Pitchshifting, Reverb and Delay, plus the high-end mastering effects: Multi-tape compressor, Multi-band stereo enhancer, FFT filter with over 30,000 bands, Amp Simulator, Vocoder, room simulator with folding principle, Denoiser (utilizing the noiseprint method) and Dehisser for real-time noise reduction. Besides routing possibilities for all effects that allow a freely configurable signal flow, these possibilities are not only available to the object level, but also in each mixer channel.
Further features: improved solo effects, unlimited routable busses and Aux-send busses, VST and DirectX plugin support, flexible routing of all integrated and plugin object effects and mixer channel effects.
Burning CDs/DVDs
It couldn't be easier: Red Book-compatible audio CDs/DVDs can be burnt on-the-fly from the arrangement, without having to take any destructive intermediary steps. The continuously updated support makes sure that even the latest models burn perfectly with Sequoia.
