Hi
I was wondering wether i should wish me the Magix musik maker 15, because I think it's a really great program, and i need more loops.
But is it just the same loops as in maybe nr 14? or what?
And can I use the two programs together? :)

Thanks
Nina

You certainly can. Each Music Maker version comes with new sample/loop libraries. Plus, they're completely independent applications. You could run several versions on the same system. Just make sure not to merge them in one directory in an attempt to "update" your old version. The new version would just be a new, independent application and requires its own directory.

Hi,

That's no problem at all, especially since in the new version you have a better functionality to manage the soundpools on your system via a database-driven engine. You can basically point Music Maker 15 to the soundpools from the old version on your hard drive and the program will index them, so you can easily access them in Music Maker 15. If you already uninstalled the old version or you plan on doing so, I would recommend just copying the directory with the actual audio files from the Music Maker 11 program DVD onto your hard drive and then using the soundpool import function in Music Maker 15 to index them.

I hope this helps.
