Effects Included In Mixcraft

There are several effects included by default with Mixcraft and are detailed below.

Acoustica Chorus

Chorus effects are used to thicken up a sound, such as a vocal or guitar recording. This effect is

often used to give the impression that there is more than one instrument or vocalist performing the

same part. The effect introduces tiny variations in pitch, as well as small amount of delay, into the

original audio to give the effect of multiple audio sources performing at once.

Acoustica Compressor

Compressor effects are used to reduce the difference in volume between quiet sounds and loud

sounds in a recording. This effect is often used on vocals and drums, where some portions of the

sound are very quiet, and other portions are very loud. By reducing the difference in volume of the

quiet and loud parts of a recording, you can then make the recording as loud as desired, and the

quiet portions will sound louder than they did without the compressor effect.
