Re: Getting my new microKorg synth to talk MIDI to MixCraft

Hi. It is my understanding that a midi to usb cable is actually an interface meaning it contains standard midi drivers. If it drives your other keyboard then why did you need to download midi drivers from Korg? (was that a dumb question?) The Korg drivers and the external midi cable interface could ...

Re: USB keyboard still not working

Hi there. I just had a similar problem with MX6. Normally i use a technics kn 3000 keyboard with the midi in/outs to a midi to usb interface i got from amazon for £5 and it works perfectly. A couple of days ago i plugged in an old M-audio mk 225 - 25 key usb controller and got nothing. I played abou...

Re: VB3 distorted sound

Hi Greg. problem solved! (sort of) at least we have it pinpointed anyway. Yes i have the latest Mixcraft build and mixing down to mp3 gives the same results. Accidently, i discover the BALANCE knob ( ??? ) changes things, so now i shall edit and save all my fav drawbar settings. The dreaded poping a...

Re: VB3 distorted sound

Hi Greg. It's still there on all presets even my favourite gospel one. the distortion manifests as a drone at about two cycles per second and is most noticable on drawbars below 4' but still detectable on higher pitch drawbars. I think it may be related to the rotary speaker effect but ive tried all...

VB3 distorted sound

Hi all. When i select the VB3 organ it sounds distorted, a bit like having a lot of overdrive even when overdrive (and everything else) is at minimum value. I cannot get a "clean" drawbar sound. reducing the pedal slider helps a bit not not completely, and the mixer slider is at a sensible...

Piano roll input for MC7

Hi Mixcraft! I usually compose with a notation program then send the results to Mixcraft. When composing directly in the Mixcraft piano roll, a quantized note value (for instance an eighth note) is first selected and that then becomes the note value of everything clicked into the piano roll. The pai...

Re: Big thank you to Chibear

Thanks again i've got Win7 64 bit /500gb hdd / intel i5 650 / 3gb ddr3. I'll ditch the usb idea and fit a second internal 7200rpm hdd I have spare and use it for the instrument samples and maybe try just one more time !

Big thank you to Chibear

Many thanks Chibear. I completely wiped all MP from computer and downloaded all new. I let the computer install the UI but put the sounds on desktop till I decided what to do with them. I formatted a usb stick and put the sounds on there, then told MP where to find them. It works! But there is a pro...

Re: Mixcraft, Mirislav, win64 bit

Mbliss. Thanks for your input, I found out today that the mirislav interface and sampletank are the same thing with small operational and visual differences. As far as running 64 bit I just downloaded the trial and messed about a bit trying different folders and even tried putting all on a usb stick...

Padlock

Hi all at Acoustica. Amazingly, Ive found something strange with MX6 - The little padlock thingy shows open when the track is locked and closed when the track is unlocked and floating - I know its the most miniscule thing on the planet and i suppose i'm a pathetic soul for mentioning but just sayin'...

mixcraft unistall/reinstall

Dear Acoustica. Thankfully, I've done demo'ing DAW's (I had to do it for piece of mind) but the last one messed up all the audio settings ha,ha,ha! I have completely uninstalled all demo's including the original Acoustica download file and restored my puter' settings. - Do i now purchase the licence...

EULA

Is it permissible to use a mixcraft screen image in a publication?
Do I need to send a PM to specify? Regards mick England.
By the way, i've just demo'd a few DAW's and due to its ease of navigation and creativity I find Mixcraft blows all others away simply because I didn't have a mental breakdown !
