I just wanted to get back here and resolve my issue with MX 8 Pro crashing Actually all the while I was blaming Mixcraft for my problem.. when in reality it took a few adjustments to my system by a computer guru buddy of mine.. Something about run time issues on my Windows 10 pc that did not seem to affect MX7 but were definitely causing me issues with MX 8... Anyway I just finished a rather heavy test project cover tune in Mixcraft 8 and posted it to my SoundCloud page.. I think you can find a link to it in my Mixcraft Showcase forum post. All is well... No crashes.. and yes.. Mixcraft 8 Pro is definately awesome now that I've had the chance to complete a project with it 
Thanks Greg for staying in touch and trying to help me resolve my issues..We're all good here now
