Acoustica's Mixcraft 4 Wins Keyboard Magazine's Key Buy Award
In the May 2008 issue of Keyboard Magazine, Craig Anderton, Keyboard's Editor at Large, offers a detailed and thorough review of Mixcraft 4. Calling Mixcraft 4 "extremely cost-effective, easy to learn, with an obvious interface," Anderton proceeds to test, in detail, Mixcraft's remixing capabilities, virtual instruments, MIDI sequencing, loop library, and included audio effects
Oakhurst, CA (PRWEB) April 23, 2008 -- Acoustica's Mixcraft 4 recording studio software has been honored with Keyboard Magazine's coveted Key Buy award.
"Clearly, this program is all about value," Anderton writes, summing up his experience with Mixcraft. "Note that I didn't say 'low price' - although the price is very low - because what you get for that price is just sick. Recording audio is one of these things; adding MIDI with piano roll editing is another. When you include accurate beat-matching, a fine General MIDI sound set, virtual Polysynth, 'Minimogue' and B-3 organ instruments, two huge sampled pianos, useful effects (...), and a pretty massive loop library, then the value goes through the roof."
"What is surprising is the sheer volume of useful features that are included, as well as the additional content," Anderton concludes. "What you get for your money here is just unreal. Unreal enough to win a Key Buy? Hand down!"
"Winning the Key Buy award is a huge honor for us at Acoustica," says Dan Goldstein, Senior Vice President of Development for Acoustica. "Mixcraft joins an incredible collection of Key Buy-winning products that are all innovative, inspiring, and affordable. To receive this recognition from Keyboard, perhaps the oldest and most respected magazine of its kind, and from Craig Anderton, a truly legendary author and musician, means a great deal to us."
