Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
I just released my first album, recording and mixing with Mixcraft. If any of you are into jazz/fusion guitar, check out my new album Twist Resolution. I have some tunes on MixcraftLive to listen to and I have the album on CDBaby and iTunes.

Well done Dan!
Would you tell us a bit more about the production - professional studio, other musicians etc..?

Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
Thank you trev! I did everything at my little home studio setup. I recorded and mixed that whole thing with Mixcraft 5, though I've upgraded to 6 since then. I did most of the instruments myself, except for keyboards on the some tunes and drums, which I programmed using EZDrummer. Most of the guitars were miked with an MXL condenser mic. I mastered it using IK Multimedia's T-Racks mastering program. It was my first venture into production and it was a neat learning experience for sure.

Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
Awesome work, very nice results!
Details man!
Input to Mixer or "in the box"? Outboard gear? Interface?
Guitar gear? All mic'd from amps? Blended/Direct bass? Effects?
I am now very encouraged by your drum sounds with EZ-Drummer. Inspired enough to place my order for Christmas!
The overall mix sounds quite good on my little computer, gonna give it another go on a more revealing setup later!

Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
Recordingwise I used a Yamaha Audiogram USB interface to run my mic and direct in through. I used an mxl condensed mic for my guitar amp and ran the bass direct through amplitube. Guitarwise, I used a Jackson Soloist through a Blackstar HT-40 combo amp. I used it for both cleans and dirtys. as far as guitar effects I used a TC Electronic Corona Chorus for its trichorus setting with detune from a boss PS-6 Harmonist. I used the Classic Delay and a plugin called Omniverb reverb that sounds quite nice with guitar.

Thank you very much! Just uploaded one more tune, which I think especially captured some of the better guitar tone on the album. http://mixcraftlive.com/Danny_Brymer/

Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
Great writing and composition, great performing, and great recording, mixing and producing! I believe we have a trifecta!
Tasty use of delay and reverb!
Really fine results with a minimalistic studio rig, I am really impressed and inspired!
(taking notes) I think I have to add a direct box to my wishlist!
And please, I invite you to provide us with tips on getting such results! The depth of talent using Mixcraft isnt really being represented in the tips and tricks forum IMO!

Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
Just threw this one on, and I already enjoy it, this is incredible. Thank you for making this. The world needs great vibes!
Re: Jazz/fusion album recorded completely with Mixcraft
YES! The song "Colombia Supremo" is fantastico!!! Reminds me of a tune by this dude named Danny Jones who did stuff like this....Damn you play JUST LIKE HIM!!!! I love fusion and do my own as well, but I am mostly into modal jazz. I like your other tunes too but this one is POWERFUL. Hell the more I listen I hear Danny Jones!!!!! Are U sure you ain't HIM!!!!!!!??????? The song this reminds me of is called "Wire works".... Damn...good stuff
