Hi Greg, thanks for the reply.. I'm not using performance panel or any effects on this project yet. I did try moving an older Mixcraft 6 project to MX7-- it takes a slight hop in size, but is still under 300 KB. Could Pianissimo be causing the jump in file size? As aj113 said, 3 KB is nothing, just ...

Hi all, I recently upgraded from MX6 to 7pro studio, and have started working on my first project with this version. The project so far has only 6 or 8 tracks, with NO effects or eq applied yet I've noticed the Mixcraft file size is already over 3,000 KB. I have older, finished MX6 projects with lot...

Hi Eric, thanks for the reply-- On the track height thing, my bad..duh, I was simply letting go of the shift key too soon-- works perfectly. I will be away from my computer/daw from oct.5 till oct. 27, so may not be able to follow up on this right away. The fact that one of my tracks stays a differe...

Hello all, I recently upgraded from Mixcraft 6 to 7 pro studio, (great!), but I have 2 little "problems". The first I can't really call a problem, since it doesn't affect sound quality, but I'm curious... My current project is in early stages using vstis. It's only 8 tracks, with no effect...

Hi Stephen,

Great song! The overall production is super-- and great vocals. Thank you...Rick.

Thanks AE,

I just listened to your tracks, Aspect, and Where. Nice synth work, and good percussion tracks! Shades of the 80's. Enjoyed them both.. Rick.

Thanks Mark, Definitely found your advice and suggestions very helpful. Yeah, "when is it finished?" is always a problem for me. Simpler tunes are about all I can manage at this point-- 3 years of accordion lessons as a kid only gave me half of a keyboard education, the rest-- I just have ...

Boogie down M@rkus! Where the heck is my white "John Travolta" suit? Great job of capturing the 70's disco essence! Excellent percussion track, and nice work on the bass-- I think Rutger would be proud ...Rick.

Really a fun, foot-tapping groove. I didn't realize so much could be done just with loops! Nice work..Rick.

Beautiful arrangement and melody-- Really a nice , quiet thoughtful piece! I like what you did with the pizzicato strings and cello part. I recently tried a short "orchestral" piece with Mixcraft vsts, (see my user showcase post of 5-24 for the link). My piece sounds overly busy compared w...

Great orchestration! Why am I not surprised? Rick.

Hi Mark,

Great song, and vast improvement from the first "sketch" version you posted. Gotta agree with msnickybee-- you're an excellent singer. I like the horns, and the drums have blended in well. Nice work! Rick.

Thanks M@rcus!

I'll take that as high praise from someone with your talent! Rick

Hi M@rcus-
Good tune! Solid instrumentals as usual, and I like the vocal harmonies. Complicated piece! Thanks, Rick.

Thanks Mark, I'm glad my mixes are sounding better. Re the piano-- yup, it's an MC rhodes, and the first track I recorded for the song. I was never quite pleased with how it fit with the other "instruments" after it was finished, but the part was way repetitive due to my limited keyboard s...
