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.

Easy to install. Fun to use. I really like the product and happy with how user friendly it is. Came with a ton of extra add ons... still learning new features every time I use it!

I have not been able to even watch the intro video. When I tried to get support, there is no way to get in touch with anyone.

Awesome!

When I was offered this software to tryout and write a review for, I at first wasnt going to take them up on the offer. Ive had some experience with a couple previous versions of Magixs music software (Music Studio 5 & 7) and for reasons I dont remember never made much use of them. But Im glad I did accept the offer. I dont know if my attitude has changed or that the software is just that much better than before (probably a combination of the two). I will say this after having tried this software, if I hadnt gotten a free copy of it I would have gladly paid for it.

I cant believe this is still being advertised and sold!!! Its buggy as hell and customer service fell off the edge of earth! Magix Music maker was always my favorite and had unbelievable potential to be the best! So dont know what happened to the Magix team! If you recorded music from earlier versions, dont expect them to work with the updates or the Updated windows version Windows 10. Ive lost 100s of songs because of these bugs and there is NO response from Customer service...and no news about any updates for Magix Music maker Premium 2016. Forget LIVE, its buggy as well!

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.

My daughter has a youtube channel and she can never use music without it being flagged as copywritten by youtube. This software helps her create light music (or dark) for her videos without having to worry about copyrights. Its easy to use and suits her purposes just fine!

I got this so my teenage niece and nephew could play around with it when here, They are both musically inclined and I knew this would be fun for them,. Yes, there is a learning curve and there are issues with it crashing at times, but theres enough on there to keep them busy and they can have fun with it. They arent music pros so they dont need some expensive software. I think they will become better with it over time and they have the patience to figure it out. And its productive fun learning for them. Its important to know what our going to get and if you have the proper expectation of the limitations, then you should be fine with this.
