MIXCRAFT DAW REVIEW UPGRADE
Maybe it's a bit unfair to expect the upgrade from v5 to v6 to be similarly vast, and indeed it isn't. Version 5 represented a particularly major step up, introducing a swathe of advanced features and some exceptional bundled plug-ins. Mixcraft started life as a very rudimentary DAW, but it has rapidly grown into a powerful music-making environment with the sorts of features you might expect from an application costing considerably more. We also want to give Acoustica a big hug for integrating a guitar tuner into every audio track. Punch-ins and punch-outs can also be performed - very useful for the solo recordist - and effects chains can be stored and retrieved. "We also want to give Acoustica a big hug for integrating a guitar tuner into every audio track" Track lanes have also been implemented - particularly useful with that new drum kit - and recordings can now be made in loop mode, with each pass creating a new take. Mixcraft can now run as a ReWire host, while unlimited outputs are available to VST Instruments and MIDI control surface support is finally in place. It's not all new sounds and effects, though. Incidentally, the cheaper 'standard' version of Mixcraft doesn't include these or numerous other plug-ins that ship with Pro Studio 6. You also get a 31-band EQ, iZotope Mastering Essentials (a basic but sonically impressive mastering suite) and some useful mid-side processors, among many, many others. There's also the EZQ equaliser, which is essentially a tone control with a vector pad labelled Dark, Tinny, Bright and Warm.

They're decent enough, though as with many of Acoustica's bundled plug-ins, they can be found elsewhere for free.īeat makers, meanwhile, will be thrilled with the new Acoustica Studio Drums Collection - a massive ROMpler full of acoustic and electronic drum sounds. There are also a few new instruments onboard, including a pair of transistor organs in the form of Combo-V(ox) and Combo-F(arfisa). "Acoustica has always included plenty of sample content with Mixcraft, and v6 sees 3000 new loops added"Īcoustica has always included plenty of sample content with Mixcraft, and v6 sees 3000 new loops added, in a broad range of styles, bringing the total to over 6000. We're reviewing the Pro Studio edition here, but the 'standard' edition - called simply Mixcraft 6 - can be had for £70. This time around, though, the changes have been applied with a lighter brush. Version 5 was a big one, introducing a host of pro features, so we were intrigued when we heard that v6 was on the way.
