I am of the opinion that Sonar, in real terms, is worth ten times the asking price due to the slew of included high-quality plugins. I am one who is affected by the graphics i see or have to look at when making music, so i do insist that it must look slick, and Sonar scores ten out of ten on that count.Īlso, another reason i am looking to move beyond Mixcraft is because it doesn't come loaded with high-quality VSTi's and effects, Mixcraft only comes with a short list of bog-standard generic ones which are barely usable. I do understand why some users are so enamored with the look of Sonar's graphics. I even told them that they need to take a cue from the graphics in Sonar and Studio One that was several months ago when i sent those messages. I have sent several messages to Acoustica (developers of Mixcraft) saying that they need to re-design the graphics for the upcoming Mixcraft 7. One of the main reasons i wish to move beyond Mixcraft is because of the bad graphical look of the main project window, it irks me something terrible, especially during a ten hour mixing and mastering session, even to the point where it kills my inspiration, seriously.
