Mixcraft 7 crashing on mixdown
I'm using Mixcraft Home Studio 7.7, build 316. When I use too many complex instruments (i.e. stuff from Kontakt and whatnot), I'm unable to mix down a song without the program crashing on me. I don't want to have to sacrifice my song's quality just to get it to mix down. Is there a way to make it so it doesn't crash? Surely there must be a way.

The more complex the MIDI instruments, the more resources required for processing (This is true with ANY DAW).mammothplant wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 4:55 pm ...When I use too many complex instruments (i.e. stuff from Kontakt and whatnot), I'm unable to mix down a song without the program crashing on me.....
Best practice is to print the larger MIDI tracks individually to audio first before mixdown. It's a lot easier on your system if it's mixing down just audio.

Hi,
Or it might be a particular plugin that's causing the crash. Did you add a plugin to the project just before you started having the problem? Which plugin is in the project that's crashing, but not in projects that don't crash. Kontakt itself shouldn't be a problem, but do make sure that you've got the latest update for it.
