Re: Need suggestions!

Dude, really?

You know there are a lot of better ways to take out your aggression instead of pulverizing a defenseless trash can.

Seems to me you need to just make a heavier reprisal to "Gut Check" :D :D

Re: Not all audio Daws sound the same ...

Now to be fair, Samplitude Pro X3 does have 4 band parametric EQ per channel where Mixcraft only has 3 bands at predetermined frequency centers. So you have more control in critically shaping your tone in Samplitude. Gee I wonder if that could make a diff :roll: Ok smart guy... Mixcraft is an aweso...

Re: Not all audio Daws sound the same ...

Drafter, I'm familiar with Samplitude (music studio 2016) especially the object editing. BTW I put in a suggestion similar to OE years ago but it fell by the wayside. I also tried for snapshot mixer settings more recently. I've kept trying with suggestions (tried and tested only and not brain flash...

Re: Not all audio Daws sound the same ...

If I use an eq Mixcraft sounds very good and close to Samplitude but as mentioned, and I can confirm, Samplitude does have a more open sound. The difference is stunningly clear. If you can't tell the difference then your monitoring speakers/headphones are not up to the job. The general idea that on...

Now to be fair, Samplitude Pro X3 does have 4 band parametric EQ per channel where Mixcraft only has 3 bands at predetermined frequency centers.

Re: Not all audio Daws sound the same ...

Hey there, I know this is a Mixcraft forum, and this may piss off some Mixcraft fanboys out there. I personally don't fall into that whole brand-loyalty thing. If I find something to be better or worse, then I'll give you my honest assessment. I own and use Mixcraft Pro Studio 8 and Samplitude Pro X...

Re: Vocaloid 5

Vocaloid? Yeah I made the mistake of trying that stupid thing. Dude, it doesn't sound remotely human, and it was a complete nightmare to try and figure out how to make it do anything. If software is that complicated to figure out, and it sounds like a cartoon robot voice, it needs to go into the tra...

Re: Compatible Surface Controllers for MixCraft 8

Tony, I am running the Behringer X-Touch control surfaces. I have 2 of the X-Touch main units, and 3 of the X-Touch Extenders for physical control over 40 tracks without having to bank shift. In my opinion, they are far nicer than the Mackie MCU / MCU Pro units and are WAY cheaper. And yes, I owned ...

Re: USB Interface Recommendations

To the OP, Yes, there are plenty of Behringer haters out there. Not sure why all the hate flying around, because their products put out in recent years are pretty damn good, I think. I run their flagship UMC1820 rack mountable USB interface, which also has ADAT & SPDF connectivity (I only use th...

Re: Mixcraft Suggestions!

Mixcraft would be perfection IF it had: 1- WAY better Mackie Control Protocol implementation, and the ability to modify the button assignments within the Mackie mapping (to adjust it for variants like the Behringer X-Touch vs Mackie MCU Pro, etc.) 2- The ability to "pin" the submix tracks ...

Re: Modernize the user interface

Mixguy2, I didn't say that Acoustica didn't care about our opinions. I believe that they actually do care about what people are thinking about their product. I simply said that they didn't seem to care too much about the GUI topic. And as I said "in my opinion", so no I didn't say that I w...

Re: Modernize the user interface

Tony, Might as well forget about asking Acoustica for a new skin or updated look because people have been asking for this forever. In addition to these requests going nowhere, there are also plenty of people here on the forums that will give you the "looks aren't important, I'd rather see more ...

Re: New hard drive problem with Mixcraft.

Sounds like the secondary drive might be going into power-save mode and spinning down. Try keeping all of your VST plugins on the primary drive where Mixcraft 8 is installed, and only use the secondary for your project files. I've seen this on friends computers, but I've never experienced this mysel...
