Eidos has announced a new piece of software from Definitive Software called Traxxpad, which will allow you to mix and use virtual sequencers, drum machines, and keyboards, and export your creations into WAV and MP3 formats. "It's one thing to make a powerful music device, but it is truly impressive to make an application that allows someone unfamiliar with music to make something that sounds professional," said Eidos' marketing manager Kevin Gill to MCV. "That is where Traxxpad excels. This is a piece of software that appeals equally to both aspiring musicians as well as professional music producers."Certainly, the program will have a fairly limited appeal. However, for musicians that must always be composing on the go, Traxxpad may fit the bill.

I did some more research on Traxxpad last night, and it sealed the deal for me when I found that you're actually able to transfer the files to your computer and turn them into mp3's mp4's or .wav's so that you can distribute your own music!

Two thoughts: 1.) It would be nice if it shipped with a little usb microphone, or integrated with the PSP headset somehow to get actual audio into tracks. 2.) Cool if it did 5.1 mixes that could be swapped for in-game PS3 music. (ie) play your own creations in PS3 games, rather than listen to the publisher's noise pollution.
