Post by jazzyfries »

So I was to open my Mixcraft 7 file from school on to my home computer that has Mixcraft 8. Will I be able to open up this file edited in Mixcraft 8 in Mixcraft 7??????

No, mixcraft files are not forwards compatible.

If you need to use your Mixcraft 7 project on both machines, you need to make sure you have Mixcraft 7 on both machines. You can always contact support to see if you can obtain a compatible Mixcraft version for your home computer.

He could always download v7 from here. http://www.acoustica.com/mixcraft/suppo ... rsions.htm

It'll be in demo form but he can always open up the projects in his licensed 8 copy to export any files past the expiration.

You mean 'not backward compatible'.

Right, misspoke. Essentially OP you can't open .mx8s in any version of mixcraft 1-7.
