Running two instances of a project at the same time?

Post by creativeforge »

I'm trying to see if it is possible to have two instances of Mixcraft running at the same time so I can quickly see the difference between two versions of the same project. Having to close and reopen the project for each track would take forever.

I'm thinking even if it would be possible to copy a track and paste it in the other instance opened. I'm probably dreaming, but I thought I'd ask to see how far I could go with this. Any suggestion on how to go from here?

Many thanks in advance,

Andre

Hi,

It depends upon your audio settings. Certain sound device settings would prevent you from hearing audio from one instance of Mixcraft.

Not recommended in general for any length of time, because you can run into all sorts of issues besides the audio, like file sharing issues and memory issues.

That said, give it a try and see if it works. :)
