Project version 3.6.0.5 / Pro version 4.5.0.5 or later Project version 3 / Pro version 4 or later Ĭurrent software products which support ARA include the following.Īudio editors and plug-ins Plug-In To allow software manufacturers to support ARA, a Software Development Kit has been published by Celemony. The first DAWs to support ARA version 2 were Logic Pro X (version 10.4, released in January 2018) and Studio One (version 4, released in May 2018).

DAWs which use ARA version 2 are not automatically backwards compatible with plug-ins using version 1. Version 2 of ARA was announced during NAMM in January 2018, introducing new features such as the simultaneous editing of multiple tracks, transfer of chord track information, and undo synchronization with the DAW. It was first published in October 2011 and released as part of PreSonus' Studio One DAW (version 2) and Melodyne (Editor, Assistant and Essential versions 1.3). History ĪRA was developed as a joint effort between Celemony Software and PreSonus, driven by the desire to increase the level of integration between Celemony's Melodyne plug-in and the DAWs using it. This increased amount of information exchange, and availability of data from other points in time, removes the need for audio material to be transferred to & from the plug-in, allowing that plug-in to be used as a more closely integrated part of the DAW's overall interface.

It was developed in a collaboration between Celemony Software and PreSonus.ĪRA increases the amount of communication possible between DAW software and a plug-in, allowing them to exchange important information, such as audio data, tempo, pitch, and rhythm, for an entire song, rather than just at the moment of playback. Extension for audio plug-in interface Audio Random AccessĪudio Random Access (commonly abbreviated to ARA) is an extension for audio plug-in interfaces, such as AU, VST and RTAS, allowing them to exchange a greater amount of audio information with digital audio workstation (DAW) software.
