Product Reviews by KVR Members

I am using Mixcraft (Recording Studio) for about a month extensively, and there was no need (for me) to read any of the documentation. I used Mulab and Reaper before. Mulab is nice but has its limitations. Reaper is also nice, but it feels like there are too many whistles, and the plugins (js) UI turns me off.

Mixcraft has some awesome tools built in. For example, I love the compressors (try the TB bus compressor) and TB de-esser. There are also synths like Messiah, Journey, VB3 organ (my favorites), and more instruments.

The UI is fine to me (1920x1080), and the program works stable. I have 600 VST plugins, and all are working fine.

Some people claim that DAWs have each their sound (like one is warmer or brighter than the other one), but that is a myth. So I would choose a DAW according to price, stability, workflow, capabilities, etc.

Yes, it's a nice DAW, and I hope Mixcraft will do well in the coming years.

Hi, this is my first review on KVR.

Today I've spent the whole day comparing compressors for my voice. And I found out that Frontier gave the best results for my voice. My findings:

• Adds a welcome coloration I didn't find in other compressors.
• Very easy to set up.
• No clicks or plops on my track where other compressors showed these.
• I perceived more volume without any pumping effect.
• It punches while showing air and enough mid-high.
• While other compressors easily make the sound dead, this one doesn't.

For my voice, it's excellent, but for other tracks, I prefer other compressors with more adjustments.
