acid pro is an awesome program for creating mix cds. While I'd never use it for demo cds, I quite often use it to put together cd mixes for friends, especially when I want to use tracks I don't have on vinyl.
It's also pretty nifty for music production. I've considered using to replace Reason as my sequencer, and using Reason solely as a loop creation tool... however, the effects in Acid are weird. IE: delays are time based, not tempo-based. |

Tempo is a form of time. Just ask yourself how many beats per minute there are, and convert it to milliseconds
for example
120 BMP = 500 ms (millisecond)
136 BMP = 441.2 ms
140 BMP = 428.6 ms |

yes I understand how to do that. But, when I am just applying simple delay, but with multiple delays (feedback), its hard to get the proper delay 'sound' that I like from Reason. |

my friends like me making mixes for them for their parties or whatever. I do all that on MixMeister.
However, when it comes down to real , i just use the decks. MixMeister is definently top stuff tho |

You might want to check out Mixvibes Pro software from their website. Its a pretty cool software, with scratch and vinyl options along with many other features. |

So..Atomixmp3 is for blending tracks together? Can you make remixes (or "mashups" of several songs as you hardcore trancies like to call them)?
Just wondering if there's a tool like this with a better editor for doing stuff like that.

Could someone explain how to mix tracks using Acid pro? (maybe someone has some kind of tutorial)
Traktor is a nice program to play with but the automatic beatmatching is just crap. I need to have 100% spot on mixing when making my own cd's.
BTW I suppose I need some kind of plug-in when I want to mix with acid pro? |

| Acid is not for live mixing, but it's excellent for studio mixing. Acid comes with a tutorial so try that one first and then ask around for any specific problems you're facing. |

Well mine didn't come with a tutorial.
I've got 2 tracks: one sounds as it is supposed to, but the other one just doesn't sound right when I load it in the top part of the screen. I don't know how to describe it but the tempo of the track sounds all ed up.
Maybe I just need to experiment a little more.
Do I need a plug-in to actually mix the tracks?
Is this the best program for 100% spot on mixing? (live or studio doesn't really matter) |
