Like I said before, I was really digging into the notation editor, and it seems a little flakey - I couldn't for the life of me enter triplets.

All in all, can't be beat for the money! BTW, the software synths work really well.ĭid you take note of the build number which you got - mine is build 127.

I did ask Dan to add MIDI step recording. Update: I'm experimenting with the notation view in Mixcraft, and and it is a little awkward, however, they have managed to innovate in a major way: each note on the staff has a light grey duration bar indicating the actual duration of the note, regardless of what the visual quantizing displays. Cubase have done a pretty good job as well. And I'm not really interested so much in printing as I am in editing. I think GarageBand's (Logic) notation view is pretty darn good. Here, Acoustica, with I assume a small staff of developers, takes Mixcraft from no notation editor to having one in about a year - and that's on top of all the other improvements they made. Or better yet, Cakewalk's assessment of the effort involved in improving their notation view. I was just responding to Justin and company's assessment of the effort involved.

I'm sure there are limitations, and who knows how stable it is, or what the support, vst compatibility, and community are like, but holy crap, I like the simple interface, and you can't beat the price. And there would be no excuse for Reaper not having notation. So help me, if it's notation is better than Sonar, I'll be spreading the word. I'll try it again tonight, but for $85 (version 5), it looks like it could be a kick-ass little app. I downloaded build 127 of the beta, because I wanted to check it out, especially the notation features, but it did crash on me the one time I was able to try it out. Now, in version 5, they've added a video track, automation curves, aux busses, MIDI NOTATION (input, editing, and printing), WaveRT Windows 7 support, ogg support, freezing/bouncing, MIDI input via the computer keyboard, undockable tabs, multi-monitor support and some more killer instruments, loops, and more. A loop centric sequencer with tons of content, Acid and Apple Loop support, audio and MIDI recording, piano roll editing, and some pretty impressive B3, Minimoog, piano, soft instruments. I'd read Craig's upbeat review of version 4 some time ago, and it seemed pretty cool - very similar to Steinberg's Sequel.

As luck would have it, yesterday I wondered over to the Acoustica website and discovered that there was a Mixcraft 5 public beta for download.
