MUSE
ABALTAT

Not a search engine with a large database of library music or music loops, Abaltat Muse is a video-driven soundtrack composer. The software actually composes music to already edited pictures, so re-editing video due to copyright/clearance issues or “best fit” will be a thing of the past. It can also give a first draft of a composition so the editor has a guide track, which can be updated and/or recomposed at any stage during or after the edit. NAB booth: SL7424
