Hi all,
I've been having an issue with pianissimo sounding a slight, annoying buzz/vibration sound behind a note when it is played. Generally on higher keys. I had this issue in Mixcraft 7 and still in Mixcraft 8. It does not matter where i have the volume set on my monitors (M-Audio AV-40), my recording interface (Avid ElevenRack), or in mixcraft itself. The buzz is always there. I don't believe it is my monitors, because it also happens when I use any headphones.
I do not get this buzzing sound in any other of the Mixcraft VSTs, just Pianissimo.
The sound happens while monitoring, recording, playback, and even after I publish to MP3, it's still there.
Here is a link to soundcloud of a small clip that my brother did of the Interstellar theme using the grand piano preset on pianissimo. https://soundcloud.com/user-619151363/p ... o-buzzing2
Any help in diagnosing this sound would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Pianissimo Buzzing/Vibrating
Is it only with a single piano within Pianissimo or with all the others as well?
I can't hear it but it might be my setup. Are you sure it isn't open chord resonance?

Yes it happens with all the piano presets within Pianissimo. I'm fairly certain it isn't open chord resonance. No matter what settings I change, it doesn't seem to disappear. It almost sounds like very faint clipping, but only on notes above A5-ish. It is not clipping in Mixcraft though, all levels are set correctly. I installed the demo for Addictive Keys and don't have this issue in that VST. It's not the end of the world if I never get it to work, I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue, maybe it is just some bug within my set up.

I have this problem as well (two years later)! Any solution? I'm running Mixcraft 8.1 64-bit.

Make a little sample project that illustrates this problem and send it to us.

Re: Pianissimo Buzzing/Vibrating
Turn off the Pianissimo built-in reverb and use a different reverb vst. This built-in effect causes a buzzing on my side.

Greetings,
I have had a relatively similar issue with the reverb.
In this case, a downgrade to a previous version I had on my old hard drive worked.
Please compare.

Disabling reverb alleviates the problem in this case, too.
Cheers.
