What is Mixman Studio Pro 4?

Mixman StudioPro 4 is a powerful DJ tool to create and mix tracks on your Mac.  It features special audio FX that will let you remix and create pro music on your PowerMac.

With the third iteration of Beatnik’s Mixman Studio product, Mixman Studio Pro 4.0, Mac users finally get what PC users have long enjoyed — the ability to edit remixes. Until now, the Mac version of Mixman has lacked the Editing Studio, which gives you the ability to fix mistakes in a live recording and create sequences that would be difficult or impossible to record live.

With Mixman Studio Pro also comes with the new FX Studio environment, where you can feed individual tracks like drums, bass, or vocals through a variety of audio effects. You have your pick of quite a few effects, which you can choose either individually or in combination. You can then return to the remixing studio environment to create your final version of the “effected” tracks.

Among this version’s new features, the WARP controller (a real-time audio tool for adding different audio effects on the fly) is probably the most fun to use. It gives your remixes a new dimension you couldn’t achieve in the previous version of Mixman Studio.

Unfortunately, we’ve waited for the pro version of this program for a long time — a little too long. The signature interface is really getting tired and the new features don’t offer a compelling reason to upgrade. The remixes you create have some severe limitations. You must keep your mouse depressed to sustain a WARP effect, and you can’t remove an effect from a given track within the remix.

New users may find Mixman Studio Pro a fun tool for getting started in music construction, as well as for distributing remixes through Mixzone, where visitors can listen to the tracks. Hard-core users have the option to record their own audio tracks for original remixes, but it’s unlikely they would choose Mixman Studio Pro for the task.
