I'm considering purchasing one of these to do some specific tasks.
Basically I have tracks with no drums
which I want to add to. I need to sync the drum tempo to my existing
track, will Music do this or do I
need to get the Pro version ?

Thanks in advance

There is a comparison chart on this page:

eatureID=8

In my opinion I think you should get the PRO version...
Just 'cause it's such a COOL program.

I use the Acid Style (rock) version that I picked up at
CompUSA for $30.00 to do precisely what you want to do. I
use acid to load the drums, set the tempo and save it out
to a wave file that I load into Cakewalk. Works like a
champ. Acid Style doesn't have any bells and whistles but
it does exactly what I need it to do.

ACID Pro has the capacity to Generate MIDI Time Code, MIDI Clock, and
to chase to MIDI Time Code. The
lighter versions do not. ACID Music still has volume and pan
envelopes, ACID Style(DJ, Rock) is a little more
bare bones and only allows up to 8 tracks, but could still be used to
record your drum track from the
machine for further manipulation within the computer.

Best,
Joel
