MAGIX Music Maker 2016 Live

The Good - The 15 Virtual Instruments are beyond reproach. The best ones are not listed on the box. They call them Object Synthesizers. One is a Groove box called BeatBox 2 that would stand against Rolands vintage GrooveBoxes. Another great VST is the Loop Designer. A Drum and Bass Beat Powerhouse. The presets for the VSTs shown on the box are Phenomenal. Namely DN-e1 and Revolta2. If the package only contained these items it would be worth every penny.

i baught this item so happy and downloaded it only to find out that the product serial number is registered in another email, i felt scammed. pls amazon help me.

I’ve used other similar software in the past quite successfully but this Magic is confusing, poorly structured, too many pop up ads and not worth the money.

Im not a musician, and I did not have the previous version of this software. So, sorry if my review seems a bit simplistic: It is from an inexperienced POV. But, bottom line? I thoroughly enjoy spending some down time making music with this software. It is a LOT of fun to use. Hours and hours and hours fly by creating music and goofing around experimenting with this software. Im glad to have it on my computer.

THEY WANT YOU TO PAY ADDITIONAL MONEY ON TOP OF THE PROGRAM- DOES NOT INCLUDE WHAT IT SAYS

never worked properly.

Its funny. The samplitude pro demo program that retails for $700+ works perfectly fine and is made by the same company. Music maker can barely run for 5 minutes without crashing! The program is so feature rich and I would love to use it as my main DAW but it is unreliable at best. My computer is a full xeon class workstation with 32gb ram and quadro graphics and dedicated sound. The program has no reason to crash and glitch and fail to load audio or recordings. Its like they purposely crippled music maker to push their higher end products. Do yourself a favor and dont waste money like I did on this junk program. It has potential but should have never been released in this buggy state. Ive tried it on 3 other computers with the same results. It doesnt matter if its on windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7 or vista. The program will glitch and will crash especially after recording something great. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Its fun to play with and its pretty easy to create techno style music with it. I like that its really meant to be played with in real time. But it is unstable/crashes rather regularly. And I have a strong workstation system with 16GB of ram and a Quadro video card. I definately wouldnt use it for live play because of the stability issues. Ive used a Sony program before, and while I think this Music Maker has some interesting features which I could like over the Sony, the stability of the Sony software keeps me with that product.

No star I ask for the PC dic and all I got was a box with a code that doesnt work it was a waste of time and money

I disliked the fact that it seemed like a full program but ended up a demo.
