Ok, first i have to say that i am a pianist, and a composer. So what i usually expect when purchasing a very expensive piece of music software, i expect to at least be able to play a large amount of sounds through my keyboard in order to create lost of different music, at the very least there should be basic piano sounds...but...all i see is a bunch of loops, a LOT of loops of live recorded instruments, but i cannot use those sounds with my keyboard and make whatever i want?? i mean...what is the point? using loops of pre-recorded music to create music is NOT creating music! Am i stupid? I thought that such an expensive piece of software should at the very least have a couple of standard sounds installed that you could manipulate with your keyboard...but noo...at least i do not understand how to do it. i mean...it doesn't even have basic piano sounds...what is the point of magix music creator??? please, it's an honest question, and i want an honest answer? are those soundpool loops there only to tease me? if that's the case, it's a very cruel joke to play on an actual musician........

please make me understand.

Hi,

Magix Music "Creator?" Which program is this, Music Maker, Music Studio, Samplitude Music Studio? Which version - year and basic or Premium?

If you only want to play, midi and/or audio and you don't need a lot of SoundPools, then look at Samplitude Music Studio.

For playing instruments in Music Maker, see this video that I created today and that you would have seen had you looked at some of the recent messages under Q&A.
