[edit] Format Description

An standard ACID project file contains all the information about a single project. All the layout of Tracks, Envelope adjustments (in ACID Pro and Music only), effects parameters (in ACID Pro and Music only), etc. are saved in this project file. This type of file does not contain any audio, only references to audio files.^[4] Format is based on RIFF.

It is possible to choose to embed audio into the ACD project file.^[5]

Later Sony versions of Acid Pro used a ZIP format to store project and embedded media, using the extension ACD-ZIP.^[6]
