As part of this agreement, ESI will immediately begin bundling Mackie-branded software products with their PCI and FireWire audio and MIDI devices. This bundle will include Mackie Tracktion, the easy-to-use digital recording and MIDI production software; as well as Final Mix, the stereo mastering plug-in originally developed for the award-winning Digital 8·Bus console.
"Combining ESI's value-oriented audio hardware with Tracktion's ease-of-use and functionality creates great packages for users wanting to get the most from their digital recording gear," commented Tony Rodrigues, business development manager at Loud. "In addition, ESI's worldwide markets extend the reach of Tracktion, providing a worldwide user base for one of the hottest, and fastest-growing audio software titles on the market today."
Chess Lim, president of Egosys Inc added: "In bundling Tracktion and other Mackie software with our hardware, we are providing the utility and functionality that our customers desire and in that sense, increasing the value of our products overall."
