Mixcraft from Acoustica is powerful yet easy-to-use recording software for Windows that provides all the tools necessary to record audio, arrange loops, remix tracks, compose with virtual instruments, score and edit video, and add effects.
Track count and instrument and effects instances are only limited by the host CPU, with WAV, AIF, OGG, WMA, MP3, and standard MIDI file formats supported. The software is fast and powerful and includes plug-in delay compensation, tempo detection, and pitch shifting among other major features.
