Thread: Mixing with MixMeister Fusion

    Angry Mixing with MixMeister Fusion

    In the last 2 years we usually make mixes with MixMeister.
    What are you thinking about this software?

    You can check some mixes which we are made by us with MixMeister:

    No more than any other software system for DJs.

    Sure you plan everything down to a T, but that doesn't make it any less valid when not live.

    Unless of course, you are Qbert, then it calls for the wrath of zeus.
    bored, curious, deaf or just bad taste in music?
    finally a mix by me
    and what's this, another shoddy mix...another dull mix

    I've used Mix Meister quite a bit in the past. I would hate to DJ with it. If putting a mix together not live I'd prefer to use a DAW now like cubase instead of Mix Meister. Redoing all those dreaded hit point was always a pain and too fidly. Beat recognition code is a lot better nowadays and I'm not sure Mix Meister has been updated in a while.

    The amount of time I've spent putting a mix together in Mix Meister, it would of been a lot easier to mix it live, splicing out any mistakes in a wave editor if needed, rerecord that section.

    It's pretty much a multitrack recorder labeled as dj mixing software. It's ok to use for home use, mocking up a set before playing out live. It's also useful if you're wanting to piece together a harmonic mix/mixed in key.

    Had promise, but it was abandoned several years ago. I prefer MixMeister Fusion's lay out over Ableton Live's lay out & Serato DJ's lay out. I would probably still use it if it wasn't so outdated.

    If you don't already have it, you should get a Numark MixMeister Control controller. I doubt you'll be able to find a new one, but a used one should be pretty easy to find.

    But the number of US Supreme Court judges was always 6.
    Then it was 5, then 6, then 7, then 9, then 10, then 7, and then 9.

    Oh man, I did a review of it a bit ago. Windows 95 is right... It has a lot of good ideas, but it's clearly not had much work done to it in a loooong time, and it's way overpriced.

    So it fails spectacularly at it's primary function of beat matching 4/4 for you starting on the wrong beat?

    I'm sure a lot of work went into this product by a of people, but when the outcome is something that seems half hearted, I always struggle to find the point of even starting the project in the first place, never mind put it into the public domain with a price tag, that's just asking for ridicule.

    That's the only way I've ever used MixMeister Fusion, live, on the fly. That was the whole point of the program.
    If you weren't playing the time line live, a DAW (or even Sony Acid) would have been the better way to do it.
    But the number of US Supreme Court judges was always 6.

    When it came out, it was way ahead of its time, they've just not given it the resources it deserves, unfortunately.
