MAGIX Music Maker 2016 Live

First, let me say that this is an amazing piece of software. Its not perfect. I was able to crash it. I attached the crash screen at the end of the attached video--for the benefit of the Magix team to improve it. The problem has to do with selecting multiple tracks at once and manipulating them together. The work around is not to select multiple tracks. Other than that, the software works beautifully. It has amazing collection of sound loops with simply outstanding digital and analog samplings and very intuitive user interface to create music. In the attached video I added a demo that comes with MAGIX Music Maker 2016 Live for a few seconds, and then Ive added an original arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner with my vocals superimposed on an instrumental version I found on YouTube. Music Maker Live makes it very easy to create and mix new samples. I hope you will enjoy this software as much as I have.

Its fun to play with and its pretty easy to create techno style music with it. I like that its really meant to be played with in real time. But it is unstable/crashes rather regularly. And I have a strong workstation system with 16GB of ram and a Quadro video card. I definately wouldnt use it for live play because of the stability issues. Ive used a Sony program before, and while I think this Music Maker has some interesting features which I could like over the Sony, the stability of the Sony software keeps me with that product.

Im not a musician, and I did not have the previous version of this software. So, sorry if my review seems a bit simplistic: It is from an inexperienced POV. But, bottom line? I thoroughly enjoy spending some down time making music with this software. It is a LOT of fun to use. Hours and hours and hours fly by creating music and goofing around experimenting with this software. Im glad to have it on my computer.

When I was offered this software to tryout and write a review for, I at first wasnt going to take them up on the offer. Ive had some experience with a couple previous versions of Magixs music software (Music Studio 5 & 7) and for reasons I dont remember never made much use of them. But Im glad I did accept the offer. I dont know if my attitude has changed or that the software is just that much better than before (probably a combination of the two). I will say this after having tried this software, if I hadnt gotten a free copy of it I would have gladly paid for it.

BUEN DIA LO QUE NO ME AGRADO ES QUE NO VIENE UN CD O DVD ,EL MOTIVO DE MI COMPRA COMO MUSICO,ES QUE VENGA EL CD Y DE ACUERDO A COMENTARIOS DE COMPRADORES SI UNO LO QUIERE QUIERE EL PROGRAMA EN OTRA COMPUTADORA PERSONAL DEL MISMO USUARIO NO SE PUEDE HACER Y ESO Y DEBERIA PODERSE HACER COMO EN OTRO PRODUCTO QUE LES COMPRE Y ES MIXCRAFT 8 HOME STUDIO QUE ES BUENO COMO ESTA MARCA PERO NO TE LIMITAN DE USARLO EN UNA PC O LAPTOP PERSONAL ES LO QUE NO ME GUSTA DE ESTA MARCA MAGIX LA VERDAD NO ESTOY A GUSTO CON ESTA LIMITACION DE LA COMPAÑIA MAGIX.

A lot of people are harsh about this product, but for a basic mixing app, I felt it was pretty darn good for beginners. Out of the box, not reading any directions, I was able to put together a mashup of the included beat loops along with clips from my own audio .wav and .mp3 files. Had the whole thing mixed and saved in half an hour. I recommend watching the tutorials on the Magix website, as that made me aware of features I hadnt discovered on my own.

After some problem understanding what was going on and help form the shipper. It is working. It is more advanced than last Magix program but dfI hope to get use to it soon.

I got this so my teenage niece and nephew could play around with it when here, They are both musically inclined and I knew this would be fun for them,. Yes, there is a learning curve and there are issues with it crashing at times, but theres enough on there to keep them busy and they can have fun with it. They arent music pros so they dont need some expensive software. I think they will become better with it over time and they have the patience to figure it out. And its productive fun learning for them. Its important to know what our going to get and if you have the proper expectation of the limitations, then you should be fine with this.

THEY WANT YOU TO PAY ADDITIONAL MONEY ON TOP OF THE PROGRAM- DOES NOT INCLUDE WHAT IT SAYS
