Re: Heads up for video rendering anomaly.

I have used mixcraft 6 videos and like some of its capabilities, but when I render to WMV it very slow, compared to my old moviemaker. Is mixcraft 7 faster on this? I also did not like the new video affects in MX7 using automation method vs just defining transitions to various video clips-that is lo...

Re: Mixcraft 5: separating tracks on commercial mp3

There is a web site in France (there is always a web site) that for 3 bucks, you can get about any popular song, that is of quite good quality, and mix it however you want and then use it in MIXcraft as backing. I have re-recorded a number of songs that way and it is cheap and easy. I use it mostly ...

exclusive mode during record

Probably too late for MX6, but I have found that I really need to use exclusive mode during recording as it moves latency from about 20mS to 5mS. But then I everytime I mix down or use some other audio program with Mixcraft open, its locked out till I manually change the option back, and then I forg...

MX6 Multiple outputs

I think I read upcoming MX6 will allow more than just a stereo mix output. Would the new Alesis IO4 allow me to have a two separate stereo mixes (4 channels) from Mixcraft, such as one for house and one for in-ear monitoring? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NMVUV4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&...

I copied the project to my laptop. Same result. A useless 5Kb OGG file is produced. I can workaround this on my laptop as its sound card lets me arm the playback and record it-its just a lot slower. My desktop sound card doesn't allow that and its a much faster computer. But is sure seems like a MX ...

I setup a separate folder for every MX project I create to ensure I know where files are. I see the file after mixdown (but mixdown is done almost instantly as its a small file-but no errors are given) and file is in the correct project folder location. This project has 4 instrument tracks, each usi...

Virtual Track mixdown

When I solo one or more Virual instrument tracks and try mix it down to a OGG or WAV or MP3 file, a small file (about 5Kb) is created and its not a valid file can't be loaded backinto mixcraft. I can hear the track in Mixcraft fine when I play it. If I solo an audio track and do exactly the same mix...

The device still gets recognized just fine when I plug it in, and I can arm Mixcraft track to the MIDI source, but nothing. I know its not a ...

Thanks, adding one does seem to affect the options being grayed. The project already showed a marker just like it at the start of the track. So I changed the options and deleted the marker after changing the options. Very confusing.(not your advice), just why does it work like that..I have mixed hun...

Mixdown options grayed out

When I mixdown to MP3, normally I want to use the file/tag information. But both boxes for "Create a new file.." and "Use Market Titles..." are both checked and grayed out. This causes the final MP3 to have incorrect tags as I can't uncheck them when they are grayed out. I don't ...

Yes, it had about 4 removeable drives on front of computer, once unhidden I could remap them and recover my original drive letter.

While Mixcraft works fine with it and it has good performance, I did not like it because it did not have a mono/stereo switch on the monitor mix. So I went with an Alesis IO2 hich does have stereo switch to use as a portable interface. It also has INSERT. Any of these will work with an MFX guitar pr...

Your recording capability will depend on which multmix unit you have-the basic USB 8 channel. or the USB 2.0 8 channel. The basic only lets you bring in main mix stereo channel at a time. The better one can record all eight channels separately if your PC is up to the task. 1st - Follow the basic Ale...
