I'm really enjoying your performances on the vocals and guitars and the lush, spacious mix. Wow. You are a really good mixer and masterer. MIDI instrument programming is nice, too. You did the video shoot all on a mobile phone? I'm curious what software you used to edit the video (if it wasn't Mixcr...

Listened to your "Perfect Day" cover, Tom. Excellent! Love to hear "Stephanie Says," or "Satellite of Love." I've never been exactly sure what Lou was trying to say with the lyrics to that song, but when I heard it right after my girlfriend broke up with me it made sens...

Cute indeed!

I don't know how long the sale will last, but I plan on snagging at least the Orchestral Companion Woodwinds for $19.99. Might spring for the Brass as well. I can vouch for the Harpsichord ($15.00) and Orchestral Companion Strings ($19.99). They sound great, as good as anything I've auditioned. The ...

Voxengo Boogex and Black Rooster Cypress TT-15 are a couple of my favorites.

The Meldaproduction Free Bundle includes MAutoPitch, which I have found works pretty well.

But yes, my guess is that you upgraded to Mixcraft Recording Studio 8, not Pro Studio 8.

Here is a list of freeware VST effects and utilities that I have used extensively with Mixcraft. All of them come in both 64 and 32 bit versions. Audio Damage's Rough Rider compressors are ferocious, and the Fuzz Plus is pretty cool, too. https://www.audiodamage.com/pages/free-downloads Bitter, a ni...

Last year, Dead Duck Software took the 4 instruments from the old mda plug-ins line and updated them to have good-looking skins. Since mdaEpiano was long my favorite Rhodes VSTi, I was very happy when they did this. I've still not found a Rhodes-alike that I prefer, at any price. And this is free! h...

I'll have many recommendations coming along, but I'll second Mark's for the Meldaproduction bundle. My vote for the second (after Meldaproduction's) freeware plug-in bundle for a new Mixcraft (or any DAW) owner to download is the Dead Duck Free Effects Bundle. It comes with 24 excellent effects in b...

If you're fond fond fond of the Mellotron, my favorite, mostly because it has the best "Moody Blues" string sound, is Tapeotronic:

Greg, recently there was a request in this forum from msnickybee for a freeware track compressor, and then another from mixyguy2 for freeware plug-ins in general, and in both cases I replied with lists of ones that I have thoroughly tested and know to work well with Mixcraft. It was suggested that a...

Oh yes, my good heavens, I typed "Areena," which is a reverb plug-in, and I shall now make up for that by posting a link to a brand new vintage-y compressor. It's said not to be a direct emulation of any one of them, but those familiar with the breed will figure out pretty quickly from the...

Excellent! I just love this. The emotional content of the song(s) really comes through.

Love the Beach Boys and the Cowsills and you do them both justice.
