A complete DAW for production, composing and mixing, now with Dolby Atmos

One of the most complete DAWs available

Motu Digital Performer 12 is professional recording, editing, mixing and composing software for macOS and Windows, with a long legacy in music production, film scoring, live performance and post-production. It combines award-winning arrangement and editing tools, robust MIDI controller management and extensive compatibility with MusicXML, AAF/OMF and VST2/VST3, Audio Units, MAS and ARA plug-ins, with a strong emphasis on customising your working environment.

Dolby Atmos, AI stem separation and the Arrangement Strip

DP12 delivers a complete Dolby Atmos workflow with a built-in renderer: place sounds across up to 128 channels in a three-dimensional soundfield, monitor on speaker layouts up to 9.1.6 or binaurally on headphones, and export an ADM file for Apple Music, Tidal and other platforms. AI-powered Stem Separation, developed in-house by MOTU, splits a mix into drums, bass, guitar, vocals, strings and brass. The new Arrangement Strip re-orders your song structure in seconds, joined by one-click Track Freeze, tags and search, track presets, key commands from other DAWs, frame rates up to 120 fps and the Performer Producer Pack of loops, MIDI chords and arpeggios.

End-to-end Dolby Atmos

DP12 brings a complete Dolby Atmos workflow: place instruments, vocals, dialogue and effects freely across up to 128 channels in a three-dimensional soundfield, using the Dolby Atmos 3D Panner and familiar automation tools.

Mix and render in real time

The built-in renderer lets you mix and render on a single computer, monitoring on speaker layouts up to 9.1.6 or binaurally on headphones. When you are done, export a Dolby Atmos ADM file for Apple Music, Tidal or any Atmos studio.

AI Stem Separation

Built on technology developed in-house by MOTU, Stem Separation splits any mix into individual tracks: drums, bass, guitar, vocals and even strings and brass, in a single operation.

Remix, mash up or play along

Extract only the stems you need, create a mix with specific instruments removed, or both. Ideal for remixing classic tracks, building mashups or muting your own instrument to play along with the rest of the mix.

Arrangement Strip

Organise and rearrange your song in seconds: drag each section's coloured bar (Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge) and the order changes across all tracks at once.

A faster workflow

Duplicating, moving, snipping and deleting sections is effortless. Together with enhanced drag-and-drop file import, batch renaming, tags and search, DP12 makes production faster than ever.
