SmSml Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 With Christmas being here, I asked for a music program to start remixing (I came here earlier asking about programs) and got one. I got "Magix Music Studio 11 Deluxe" or something like that. I was wondering if anyone here could tell me more about it or anything. I'm looking for something that's easy to use and such - I just want to remix some songs for my site and such I know FruityLoops, though I've never used it. How does this compare to it?

-RK- Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 From the looks of it, MMS 11 looks to do everything someone starting out could dream of. It's got bundled plugins, effects and instruments, Audio and Midi support, easy looking GUI, and enough sequencing features to allow for effective composition. I dont use it myself, but, it SOUNDS from the website like it should be a fine solution to get your feet wet. Learn to use that, then move onto new programs.

SmSml Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Well, that's what I'm hoping to have, something just to experience remixing I'm gonna go and post another topic with screenshots to try and see if anyone can help me get started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Two questions: 1) Does it have a helpfile? Online instructions? Anything like that? I don't think many remixers use that program, which means odds are low we'll be able to help you with it. That doesn't mean it's a bad program -- it just means that the included helpfiles will be able to help you far more than this forum will. 2) Why start another topic? Just use this one.

SmSml Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Easier to keep it seperate It does come with some help. I read the book it came with, it's not that detailed and tells a lot about creating MIDIs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavous Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 No, what he's saying is: "Keep it in this topic". There is no reason to start another thread when this one is already here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Creating MIDIs is basically where you start from; from there it's just a matter of what samples/VSTi's/Soundfonts/whatever you render it with. Sonar, Cubase, Tracktion, etc are also basically midi-creation programs, and they're quite popular among remixers. I suggest you take a closer look at those instructions; as I said, they'll probably be able to help you more than we will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmSml Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 @ Chavous: Yeah, I know wha the means...I'm not new to forums. I just thought it might be easier I'll look at the instructions more. Like, for instance: What's a VSTI and a Soundfont? I wouldn't know...

Villainelle Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 This may help you. VSTi Soundfont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmSml Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 ^^ Looks like a great source I used the Help features and such, and it didn't recognize any of those 2 phrases/words you gave me. Messing around with the program has led me to 2 things which I would figure may help me, but I can't exactly tell. One is the remix agent, which I can describe as this: Once I open a song in a .VIP (That's the project extensions for the program) and use it, it takes a metronome (I actually know what that is...somewhat) to get the beat and such. Afterwards, I can use an Object Editor and SoundFX menu in the Mixer, which looks like this: Object Editor: http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/4307/screen3lr4.jpg Sound FX: http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/2391/screen4lg6.jpg Again, I realize hardly anyone, if no one, uses this program...I was hoping this info would help, if anyone could help me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimgak Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I got Magix Music "Maker" 10 a couple months ago. I didn't like it much cause there wasn't really anyway to sequence. Magix Music "Studio" looks a little bit better though. The two programs look somewhat similar so I may be able to help you out on some questions if you have any.

SmSml Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 Well, I'm just trying to get started. I just don't know where to do it. I got a song in mine, got a file of it. From there though, I'm absolutely clueless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
