Description

MixTape is a simple, beautiful and easy to learn application for making beat matched mixes.

By simply drag dropping the music you already have in iTunes (or from the finder), MixTape adds detected tempo and beats. Tracks are then dragged onto a workspace where they now "snap to grid" along their beats and play in sync. Precisely in sync. The live UI means you can always hear what's underneath the playhead as if it were recorded on magnetic tape and waveform images mean you can see the music in front of you. Finally automated volume and HiLo controls add that all important final polish to your creations.

Mixes can then be exported at a configurable bitrate back into iTunes to play on your Mac, iPod or iPhone; or exported losslessly.

You can even compose your mixes live - simply cue up your first track, start the live stream then continue to use your headphones to mix as usual. The live stream will also emit midi so lighting or VJ rigs can be kept in sync with the music as it is played.

Far simpler than either an audio workstation or a DJ app, MixTape embraces the Mac aesthetic to blend in perfectly with your desktop. Finally a short series of video tutorials emphasise 'show' over 'tell' to show what can be done and how.

Used by DJ's, gym instructors and just ordinary people... we mix our own music and you can too.

Poor

This app is really quite poor and difficult to use. It is no doubt difficult to make such a program but that in it self does not warrant the price tag. As the name implies, it is not really designed for making a mixtape at all. It quite simply is a cut and paste program with auto beatmapping. The beat mapping is far from perfect and it is difficult to mix songs that I found much easier on a previous program in the past. Other than that all you can really do is change the volume and the bass/treble. The layout and scrolling is also cumbersome. The fade in and fade out method is annoying.

I previously used a cheap ACID pro program (~7yrs old) which was much easier to use and had many more options. This is quite unsinspiring and I would suggest holding off on purchasing this program until further updates are made.

In conclusion, considering what else is available on the market, do not buy this application.

Beatmatching made easy!

A long-time music lover & aficionado, I have greatly enjoyed being able to step up my musical game (and perhaps credibilty!) by dabbling in the arts of beatmatching & mixing, made accessible & easy by the intuitive interface & built in tools of Mixtape Pro. Read the documentation, follow the tutorials in the app & and be sure to be vigilent with checking (and, as necessary, adjusting) timing tabs, and with a little bit of practice you should be on your way (it won’t happen overnight but it will happen) to creating high quality beatmatched mixes, and maybe even perform your sets live! (I’m working my way up to this…) On the couple of times I’ve needed support, response has been good and the problem easliy rectified. As a bit of a music nerd, this software has been an accessible way to lend my well-loved music collection a new lease on life. Thanks Atomic Droplet!

Does. Not. Work.

This applcation opened after installing the first time, once I tried to import some music files it crashed and hasn't been able to open since despite going through the usual steps of installing and reinstalling, restarting etc.

Don't bother. Hoping to get a refund through Apple.
