Would a send track work for that purpose? Actually, I would need N separate send tracks (the +1 would be the original track). And N more send level controls to keep lined up right. But, yes, that would work. For this situation, duplicating the track N times also works and is more straightforward. I...

It sounds like a focus issue. Make sure that the correct Window is selected. I covered that issue in my post: "Select Blind Test for editing ..." Also, I tested this a large number of times to make sure that I wasn't doing something with the keyboard or mouse that changed the focus. If I ...

This problem involves a three way interaction among Mixcraft 8 Pro Studio, Blue Cat Patchwork 2.0 and HOFA 4U+ Blind Test. I think it should probably be reported to Acoustica first because the configuration works as expected in the other DAW I tried (Reaper). Open an instance of Patchwork. Put an in...

Was the difference primarily speed, or are you also talking about stability here?

... you could make the process almost automatic by making the pattern include the necessary number of bars' silence before the pattern is repeated.Then simply grab the right edge of the clip and pull to the right to loop it. Now when you change any instance of the pattern you will change all other ...

In some DAWs, you can make copies of a clip that are updated automatically whenever the original is updated. Is this what you are talking about?

If so, then I haven't learned how you can do it in Mixcraft.

Many Mixbus users record and edit in another DAW and then export the tracks to Mixbus. This is a fairly common workflow. I've thought about doing it myself. Like stu, I'm really attracted to Mixbus for mixdown. But I would never contemplate trying to sync multiple DAWs for the same purpose. I would ...

Thank you. I discovered that this is a two step process. After you create an instrument track in the "external MIDI devices" category, you have to click on "Add Synth" and load (for example) Kontakt. Then you have to move Kontakt's position in the chain to come before Loop MIDI r...

As usual, apologies in advance if this has been covered in a thread that my searches failed to find. Some virtual instruments output MIDI as well as audio. I refer to Kontakt 5 as an example. In the Options dialog on the Engine tab, there is a setting to "send MIDI to the outside world". T...

Thank you. On rereading the manual, it's covered thoroughly. I just missed it the first time.

Apologies in advance if this has been asked and answered somewhere and I didn't find it. Is it possible to record the output of the performance panel, either into the corresponding track(s) or into new tracks? In Ableton Live, this is called "Recording Sessions into the Arrangement". Lacki...

... Richard is correct that some interfaces automatically switch to an instrument level when you plug in a 1/4" jack, while the XLR is set to mic level. You need to research that ... I was assuming that s/he is using a 1/4 jack because the sound card or interface doesn't have a XLR mic input. ...

... The Q7 is actually designed to be XLR mic but I am using it via converter to plug into 1/4 inch soundcard input jack. Could it be that it really needs to plug into genuine XLR socket interface? Or should it not make any difference? Often (but not always) the answer is yes, this will make a diff...

Thanks.

This has already been mentioned several times, but I would like to add my vote. For my desired workflow, I need a MIDI clip librarian. Or at least a file system browser with MIDI preview (either the default piano sound or a drop-down menu of sounds). Having looked at Mixcraft 7 somewhat carefully no...
