MusicMan Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 The thing I wondered with this is if you already have Mixbus 32C, can you buy this just to get all the XT plugins and use them inside 32C or will they only be licensed inside this version of Mixbus? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALC Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) If you were wondering like I was, the latest version of Mixbus is 7.2, and the latest version of Mixbus 32C is 8.0. Edited July 1, 2022 by ALC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveiv Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 It took me a long while to realize that Mixbus is NOT a good DAW if you need to use the timeline a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It emulates the analog mixing console pretty well. Kind of like Sonar ProChannel with less features but more intuitive interface. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Earl Goodroe Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 MIDI production is dismal in Mixbus! I love it for its audio side but if you are a heavy MIDI user it is gonna be a rough go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I use it personally. My main DAW is Cubase which I love and use for all recording and production, but I enjoy Mixbus purely for the mixing experience and sound. Cubase is still great for that and I use for mixdowns as well, but it's nice having both options. The combination of the buss saturation in Mixbus and even the quality of some of the stock effects in it allows for a really nice result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a great DAW and with 12 Pro, I'm really left wanting, or needing very little.. almost nothing... I'm still finding and exploring new functionality.. it's pretty damn comprehensive!

Any thoughts on the plugins? I ended buying Mixbus 6 and Mixbus 32C 7 but haven't yet completed a project with either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of brilliant and time saving updates and new features in 12, but even by 9.5 it was a really complete and great DAW. For me, Cubase is the most rounded and comprehensive there is. The other DAWs for sure all have some great features as well though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended buying Mixbus 6 and Mixbus 32C 7 but haven't yet completed a project with either. I'm using 32C and I'm really quite impressed with it for mixing. Cubase is more efficient on CPU etc, but like they pitch, I do also use more of the inbuilt stock plugins in 32C. I got the XT Compressor for free with 32C and I really like it. Especially for sidechaining and ducking bass, when the kick hits, or ducking other instruments for vocals, etc. I have a tonne of other great and paid compressors, some costing more than I paid for 32C and I still reach for XT. The XT gate (yes, it's just a gate!), I really like as well. The tape saturation on the busses in Mixbus are really great sounding too. That's why I was considering getting this Mixbus, to get all the XT plugs as well, but just keep using 32C. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Arwood Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I tried it with several versions through the years, but it could never finish scanning my plugins without crashing. No problem with 6 other DAWS! The support teams answer was to take out all my plugins - I don't think so LOL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
