Re: Avoid compressing the reverb? (when using send tracks)
your entry is unreadable sorry! They are not summed, they are entirely separate. c/d - that's how I'd do it Thanks for confirming the thing about Output buses working ok! Well, don't get me wrong, compressors on submixes are fine, and I do this :-) Because I think the output bus thing doesn't give ...

Avoid compressing the reverb? (when using send tracks)
guys Mebbes you can help me with this? :-) I've done a lot with Mixcraft, but I confess I haven't tried the new Output tracks much, or used more than simple Submixes. So.... How can I avoid compressing my Masterbus reverb *or* compress before the reverb on this simplified song below? (I basically pr...

Re: Note to Voxengo Span users
Thanks, must update! (if I need to)
Been using this for years, but confess to only looking being reassured by how pretty it looks, seeing no clipping, and that the peak levels are ok....

You *need* an amazing Chorus effect
We all need a top quality chorus effect. Useful - used very subtly - in so many situations eh?
Much as I love the Acoustica and Classic chorus, here's a top top quality freeware one that I love a little more, it's called "Multiply" https://acondigital.com/products/multiply/

Adaptive limiting? Didn't know you needed it?
I've been having fun with this the last few days, written in Poland, and I record a lot of acoustic, struggle with transients and attack, and always messing with tape saturation, multiband limiting blah blah And, I guess with digital, it's a constant battle against that harshness. So for me, an aggr...

Listen to a fav song, and change tempo
I started doing this more and more, as I'd got out of the habit. Import a fav song into a spare track, and listen to it. Listen to each L and R. Analyse the tempo. Look at it through some meters like "SPAN". See if it's a victim of the loudness wars by squinting at the waveform - lots of d...

I always think that mixing to leave *space* for the vocals both in EQ space and Pan (as well as timing/time) is a good mode to be in

Re: How to keep sound from getting to overwhelming when all the elements come together in a song when vocals etc. come i
I guess we all have our own opinion in trying to help, so here's my clumsy attempt! And there no substitute for your own experience, and working with the best recorded sounds you can...that way, you might find that you need less tracks to build something that sounds rich and full, and complete. Simp...

Re: Mixdown bad quality?
Try FLAC mixdown. Despite using mixcraft for lots of years, I've never got on well with WAV. And on my upgraded new Win10 PC it doesn't behave (and I really can't be bothered finding out why).
But FLAC (relatively new MC feature) works fab.

Re: Drum roll... please.
I've still got an Alesis SR16 somewhere, and ever since programming drums on that, I swore I'd never do it again! Somehow (and I know it's just me) I feel I can get away with tweaking synth and piano midi notes, a velocity here and there, but midi drums? My ear spots it. But, I'm sure you're burying...

Re: Drum roll... please.
It takes a huge amount of effort wading through, but I personally stick to samples for drum rolls. Have a close look through them built in library, kind of ignoring the genre initially, there are some good ones in there. I've tried programming drum rolls. It's....super hard. Same goes for EZD, I gue...
