Unfortunately, when all these elements come together, they add up to considerably less than the sum of their parts.
It's not as if the interface is badly designed either - it's clean and appealing, and includes an Easy mode that hides some of the advanced features. Other features include 5.1 surround mixing, ReWire capability, the ability to publish projects directly to SoundCloud and Facebook (new in this version), pitch and time correction, video effects, CD mastering… the list goes on and on. Finally, Loop Designer appears to be a rehash of the Drum&Bass Machine from previous versions - and there are even parts in the manual where it's accidentally referred to by its former title.
Lead Synthesiser is another sample playback instrument, though this time the selection of sounds is more varied.ĭrum Engine is a drum sampler with a seemingly broken amplification envelope where the Sustain and Decay sliders don't make any difference to the sound. It's OK for simple stuff, but no great shakes, though you can run it through the included Vandal SE guitar amp sim.Įlectric Bass is again based around one patch, but this time the effects provide more meaningful variations. On paper, Music Maker MX Premium is an amazing deal: it supports ASIO, you can use VSTinstruments and effects, and there's a huge sound library and plenty of built-in instruments, including the pre-existing Revolta 2 synth (which we really like) and some all-new ones.Ĭentury Guitars is actually a single guitar sound with a bunch of effect variations.
