Description
I decided to fire up the Dark Side™ of my MBP (you know, Windows :P) and try Mixcraft to see if it was remotely as easy as GB. Well, it's not. It LOOKS like it should be easy, but it's far less intuitive. I found myself accidentally overlapping loops (on top of each other IN THE SAME TRACK) because it doesn't copy and paste sections of loops properly. Using the arrow key to move the marker around instead moves the loops around. It's a giant pain and I've made a big mess that gets more and more screwed up as it goes along (including an abrupt ending).
Nonetheless, I'm releasing my very generic techno tune for all to enjoy.

Last updated 5-4-2009: Doofy, aka The LAE, is now (unofficially) retired. After 5 years and 200+ tunes, and most importantly, a 14-month old, I figured it's time to hang it up, so to speak. While I'd not say I'll never release another tune, I ... [see more]
