Mixcraft won't record audio. Problem.... It's your computer!

Mixcraft won't play back recorded audio tracks but will play back virtual tracks. Problem.... It's your computer!

There aew all sorts of pauses clicks and pops during even though Mixcraft is reporting it is  using less than 15% of computer resoruces. Problem.... It's your computer!

A lot of the effects are too noisy to use. Problem.... It's your computer!

Have been getting a problem with Mixcraft recently. Whenever I have more than 20 tracks my playback is reduced to a crackling, popping mess that is constantly change time... Everything mixes down fine and I can get some playback if I freeze most of the tracks. I'm not sure what the problem could be; the only thing that is consistent between all the songs I have made is the VST effect: VPS Philta and maybe some of the 'Classic Effects'. I use a lot of VSTi's in my projects however I usually always freeze them, mixdown them to audio, I always have any sort of eco mode on. My CPU is a quad core 2.3 Phenom and I have 6 gigs of RAM. My soundcard is the Presonus Direstudio Mobile and the drivers are up to date. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate X64. Any help would be appreciated. 

Problem.... It's your computer! Even though your machine has pretty good specs, 20 tracks with a lot of individual instances of effects running is a lot of system load.

I have acoustica mixcraft 5 and my problem is that i have been on a song for 2 weeks , and everytime I have problems in the middle of it , wich the song start cracking up and crashes . 
 Problem.... It's your computer! 

Read what the Mixcraft assholes are saying about this.  The site admin said, "Do you have the latest build 130 of Mixcraft 5?" (Apparently all the Mixcrap 5 builds were even bigger pieces of shit than build 130)

I have MX 5.130. Been on a song for 2 weeks and it was fine. I am up to about 9 tracks and having regular CPU spikes and crashes. Last night when i tried to record a short vocal track, it would crash each time 5 seconds into that. I had to go to my computer with MX 4 and record it and then bring over. Today , when I listen to song CPU spikes sometimes at start, sometimes after a few minutes.

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!

Below is a BULLSHIT registry hack for getting Mixcraft for free but it is bogus. If you are going to mess with your registry be careful. Mixcraft does not appear in your computer's registry. Deleting registry values can make your computer inoperable.

Even free and inspite of Mixcraft's ease of use and decent effects it IMO is still not worth it do to it's many bugs.

Traces of Mixcraft hide in your computer and Acoustica and God only knows what if any harm they are doing.  My guess is that they will cause other DAWs to become unstable and are loaded with spyware.

If you still want Mixcraft 6 buy it but prepared to be disappointed and frustated.  Mixcraft 6 has had many builds in an attempt to fix the many nests of bug.  Maybe Acoustica will go back to the drawing board with Mixcraft 7 and get it right the first time by actually hiring real beta testers and starting from scratch instead of nickle and diming current users with upgrades.

I have been comparing Mixcraft 5.2  Build 152 with Mixcraft 6.1 Bulid 216 and Mixcraft 5.2 seems more stable so far but it crashed and claimed that file were corrupted (lying sack of shit that it is) but when I reloaded the files it worked fine.

Mixcraft Crashing

Here is the first page that comes up in Google with the search term Mixcraft Crashing.

Here is what Mixcraft users are saying:

Mixcraft Constantly Crashing

I'm really starting to get frustrated with Mixcraft-6 today. I "finally" sorted out that annoying issue with midi sequencing with my Juno-Di where it was cutting off the first notes upon playback after quantizing.

However, fixing that just caused another PIA problem. Now when I close the program it crashes (or stops responding). It does this EVERY TIME now. If that's not enough of a PIA.., Mixcraft won't allow me access to my Log File now. WTH! Everytime I try to get the log file to send it in, I get "access denied".

Grrrrr.., really getting frustrated with this program now. A lot of people I talk to who use Mixcraft.., I find a vast majority (at least who I speak to) are guitar, bass, and drum players. On the Audio Side of things MC6 seems to really be set up well for those people. However.., for us keyboard players.., I'm noticing way too many failure issues lately with this application.

What am I to do for support requests if Mixcraft denies me access to my Log File.?.?

Read More Here  how the liars at Acoustica the Makers of MixCRAP blame everything and everyone but their buggy beta DAW.

And the Mixcraft crashing just keep on coming.

Look how Mixcraft fucked this guy!

I just finished making probably the greatest song that I've ever made, and when I went to play it back, a message popped up for half a second saying something like, "Mixcraft in experiencing a crash... ...a synthesizer problem with Alien 303 Synthesizer has caused... ...Alien 303 Synthesizer will be muted." The '...'s are all parts that I skipped over so I could read the whole gist of the message before the application closed and a Windows 7 error message appeared, stating that Mixcraft 6 has just crashed (No duhhh!!). Now, whenever the project is played back, Mixcraft crashes. Only when I hit the play button. I tested all the synth lines individually, and they worked fine for a minute and then mixcraft crashed again. Mixcraft hasn't shown any more error messages before crashing, and it doesn't even leave any log files.

More Mixcraft crashing! WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT!

Every time I try to open a mixcraft file with both an instrument track and an audio track, it doesnt open properly and it crashes. This occurs 80% of the time and I am getting extremely frustrated because I have been writing a track with guitar and drums.
It may have something to do with the drum plugin that i'm using but im not too sure.
The plugin I just mentioned is the EZ Drummer Drumkit From Hell if you need to know that.

My system has 8gb ram and an i5 core.

Once again a customer's Mixcraft crashes and the liars at Aounstica blame the computer.

Mixcraft crashes on me a lot. It seems to crash when I ask of it to do a large task. For instance, if Im working really quickly and il be slicing a clip up, something will cause mixcraft to have a hiccup and then crash. This happens with a vast amount of things to me. Another thing that bothers me, is that I feel that when there are a LOT of sound clips in 1 project Mixcraft becomes extremely sluggish in playback, making mixing and mastering almost impossible. If I let the terrible laggy playback continue, the screen will freeze and then will lead it to mixcraft crashing again. Another crash I get often is when I copy a big segment of the song im working on and when I paste it (in the correct track and everything mind you) the software will crash due to the sheer size of the clipboard im copying it to.

Midi crashes Mixcraft 

Looks like there is an even bigger issue; Mixcraft isn't allowing midi to be sent to Livemachine; it's only sending to the instrument track so it looks like its a no go at the moment.

Lucky I own Reaper as well  


Another disgruntled Mixcraft crash victim complains...

Hi,

I've been using Acoustica Mixcraft since version 3, I think it's a fantastic software because it's simple to use and the workflow is smooth and intuitive

The problem is that Mixcraft (even in recent versions 5.x) in extremely unstable

I don't make "modern" music, I mean... I don't need loops, samples or whatever, but I make HUGE use of VST. Tipically I have 8/10 tracks with Spectrasonics stuff, Superior Drummer, Absynth and other "heavy" VSTi... and ALL of them have VST effects like Waves, T-Racks and so on...
The result is that a certain point... BOOM!... Mixcraft crashes or start an unpredictable behaviour... need to say I lost some project, too

So the question is... what host could be SIMPLE (in workfolo and interface) like Mixcraft, but SOLID also after a ton of VSTi and effects loaded?

I'm on a quite good PC machine 

Let me be clear, Mixcraft is a TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT!  While Mixcraft as the potential of being a decent DAW as it stands now it is pretty much worthless.
