Re: Garritan/Plogue imported SF2 banks

Okay I found on the Aria Player (also the single channel version, SForzando) settings page that the location of converted files was empty. When I re-loaded Mx10 in Administrator mode I could direct it to the files directory. Problem solved.

Re: Garritan/Plogue imported SF2 banks

they are both the vst2 64 bit version.
When banks are imported into the Aria player they appear on a sound load menu under the category 'converted'. This category does not even appear in Mx10

Updating AWE32 music in Mixcraft 9

This is one of my tracks from the period 1996-2000 that I have managed to recover to work on again. Track 3 is a remaster of the original version & the other tracks are updates manifesting in slightly different directions. It's taken over 20 years to be able to get my AWE32 soundbanks deconstruc...

Re: Mixcraft 10 display themes (was: Q & A).

Okay, thanks.
I can read the font on the left hand side of the black version. but the track view area on the right is unbearable. I'd commit suicide if I had to look at that.

Re: Mixcraft 10 display themes (was: Q & A).

Not on the left hand side. Due to my positioning in relation to my monitor (I'm on a bed, it's on a hospital style table next to my bed and the left side is not clear on the non highlighted tracks because the font is too weak even when scaling is increased to 120% on those tracks). My position is no...

Mixcraft 10 display themes (was: Q & A).

I don't know why you haven't included an Mx8 skin. The blackness of the default display is like a black hole. If I was to use that I'd have a brain haemorrhage (I don't know why the screen shots from Greg appear relatively brown, unlike the flat black eyesore I get here). The light version seems to ...

Re: Mixcraft Suggestions!

Hi Greg, not sure I follow "the VST file." You mean the DLL? If so, then that means the drag n drop only works if your plugin is a single DLL file? Or can I place the other files in my VST folder and then drag the DLL and it works? Surely the dll file will reference whatever it needs to s...

Re: Mixcraft Suggestions!

Here's a small change I think would be beneficial regarding lanes and drag and drop. My specific case - but I think may be generalizable: - my general case is I often drag several drum midis to my virtual drum track to audition them with my music or as to serve as alternative grooves to something I...

Great idea. I agree

Re: The sample size of the default Piano

I've asked myself that too. You can hardly hear a difference for the price of 10 gb disc space sometimes. When I think about my old korg triton, the whole device only has 8 gb ram for pcm waves I think and many presets sound very good. Most bands have produced many hits with far less. Somehow perfe...

The sample size of the default Piano

Hello, I've always wondered why people make stupid sized sample banks for instruments, such as piano banks that are 10 gb & wondered if it is possible to find out the size of the default Acoustica Instruments Piano size on Disk as it is not possible to know from the installation of Mixcraft &...

Re: Plugin issues. WAS: Any update on Mixcraft 10?

Hi, This particular set of plug-ins has sooo many options and sub-menus. That's what made me think a setting was hidden deep in one of these menus. It's very easy to miss because the result (VST2 right channel dropped) isn't easily identified as related to the surround options. Yeah, I'd been using...

Re: Plugin issues. WAS: Any update on Mixcraft 10?

I think I solved it. On the same tool bar I mentioned above, there is an option on the channel tab (L+R tab) that will activate surround or ambisonics. If those are checked, the VST2 will drop the right channel. The VST3 will NOT drop the right channel. I think this is more of a programming issue w...
