Same here for me I have Melodyne Studio installed and Mixcraft 9 picked it up, and without activation.

Re: To Upgrade or not to upgrade

Well for my two penneth I've upgraded to every version from 4 onward & always found each time a better workflow and new features, often only found by accident, or thoroughly reading the manual. Really in the bigger scheme of things very few bugs that got in my way, or caused a problem to stop me...

Re: Best Audio USB Input For Mixcraft?

Hi Scott FWIW I ditched my Fosusrite in favour of a Steinberg UR22 and never regretted. It has everything you need for 2 CH USB recording and at the moment is on sale at £99 at Amazon UK - The ASIO driver it comes with is also excellent. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Steinberg-UR22-Audio-Interface-Suppor...

Re: izotope Ozone 9

Have only used it in one session so far but I will say it's pretty good. Uses far fewer resources than Ozone 8 and a much simplified GUI, but.. the new features are awesome. As I tend to use the stand alone for a final master the re-balance is a work of art, allowing small changes in levels to vocal...

Re: Record output of PC?

I've found that Windows 10 often updates the audio driver with a Windows generic driver and Stereo Mix does not work with it. Best off using the correct driver certainly Realtek works.

Trev I presume you have checked Stereo Mix is not hidden? (right click on empty space under recording).

Re: Vst3 to Vst help?

Hi I use VST2 Nectar3 & Neutron and never had either crash. Have had other plugins crash but never with any Izotope product I actually have stopped installing any VST3 these days as many seem unstable or in some they tend to use more resources which may or not be true; it's just a confidence thi...

Re: Keep having to re-set

Hi Perhaps playback is set to exclusive mode in Windows could be the reason. Right click on the speaker icon in the tray and select playback devices. Look in the playback device Properties, select Advanced and remove the tick in "allow applications to take exclusive control of this device".

Re: Finally Giving Up on Mixcraft

There has been made no mention of what sound card is being used which is quite important I believe!

Re: Recording levels, word lengths and dithering. Quality of analogue vs. digital audio.

I entirely agree with you Mark, music production since the 80's has become somewhat over produced. Yes technically it may sound better but, and you call it soul I call it warmth & feeling which is sadly lacking. Guess I must be an old fart as well - no I don't guess I really am as I started in t...

Re: Mixcraft 8 Guitar Amp Settings

Just to chip my UR22 has 2 Mic inputs one of which can can be switched between low/high impedance which seems sensible to me, was always very common in the good old valve days.

Re: Too many crashes

Hi
Sorry to hear of the problems you are having, you will need to submit your log files but no doubt Greg will come on and explain.

One thing I can tell you from my own experience the Studio Devil vst is notoriously unreliable as you will see if you search this forum for Studio devil.

Re: Mixcraft 8 Pro Studio Video Rendering

Hi I don't have a problem with encoding to Mp4 in Mixcraft 8, or as I recall WMV either. If AVI is your only option I would suggest this, Download & install https://handbrake.fr/ . Render to AVI and drop the saved file into Handbrake. Select a preset for your desired output format and where to s...
