  • Overall good experience easy to make beats with my own style quality sound very good i like music maker.

  • Easy going to make instrument 🎸 quickly everything is happening music maker friendly app i recommend my friends they are use and they like.

  • With Music Maker I like the drum sounds and some of the sound patches were awesome. It makes my music creating very much fun.

Cons

  • I didn't think there were any features that seemed to be missing. However, my project I was working on was relatively simple and straightforward.

  • I have to use it, I'd feel cheated if I did use it after the hundreds of dollars I have spent on it.

  • To even make remotely decent music, mix packs have to be purchased. And the customer service is terrible.

  • This eats away your money and is frustrating to have to use.

"A great addition to any Magix video editing software "

Overall: perfect when working within Magix video editing softwares.

Pros: I got Magix Music Maker as an add-on from a Magix Video Pro X purchase. It is also available on trial version of Video Pro X. I had initially dismissed it as one of the many sales campaigns but later realized how well it integrates with Video Pro X as audio editor. I have always used it to enhance the audios for my videos within Video Pro X and it works perfectly! It eliminates the need to edit audio with another external DAW.

Cons: While it has been a great tool within Video Pro X, I still find that I am more inclined to use other DAWs for more complicated audio recording to mastering tasks. I like it more within Video Pro X.

"Magix Music Maker is A Must!"

Overall: I've been using it over 10 years now I would compare it to fruity loops which I'm also a big fan of . Try it! You won't regret it!

Pros: I love this program when it comes to recording, editing and polishing songs it's so simple and easy to learn anyone can use it! Even the free version let's you choose from cool effects and presents. It really is kuje having a professional studio at home at the click of your mouse. Make a dull simple song sound like a banger! with awesome affects and don't forget to check out the drum kits! I would def recommend this to amateurs and professionals. 10/10

Cons: The least thing I liked about this program was adding the effects to the mixer and the mixer layout. Other than that it was smooth.

"good software for beginners"

Pros: I learned about the existence of magix music maker through aun friend when I started in mao. It's a fairly easy to use software with a large library of synth drum samples

Cons: the software is good for big complicated sessions I had to turn to other top names in the field which made the task much easier and a better workflow with very good presets

"A great option that offers a mix of features and easy to use"

Overall: It is a great product for those who want to make music quickly and easily. It is also very affordable and has a great sound library. The only downside is that the library is limited, so you may not always find the sound you are looking for. However, this is a minor issue and I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to create music

Pros: I found about Music Maker through the purchase of Magix’s Video Pro X and decided to give it a try as it was included in the offer. It integrates very well with the video editor but still stands out on its own as a great production software. It is easy to use with a lot of features. I am able to easily create say a beat or even a complete song within no time by using the drag and drop feature. The software has a variety of pre-made loops and samples which I am able to use in the tracks. No need to take a lot of time creating my own. Like I mentioned above, It integrates seamlessly with Magix Softwares such as Video Pro X and Samplitude hence I am able to take advantage of the unique features of these softwares by transferring tracks between these programs. Additionally, Music Maker has a nice file management system that allows you to easily organize and manage your projects. You can create folders and sub-folders to organize your projects and keep them organized. You can quickly search for files and tracks within the program. The file management system is quite intuitive and easy to use.

Cons: The software does not support some of the latest audio formats such as FLAC and Ogg Vorbis and the interface can be cumbersome to use, as it is not as intuitive as some of its competitors. Music Maker can be a bit slow and clumsy when dealing with complex tasks. Additionally, its Piano role is quite basic and could use some additional features. For example, it would be nice to be able to add multiple notes at once and to be able to copy and paste sections of the piano roll. Additionally, it would be nice if there were more options for editing and manipulating the sound of the piano roll.
