MixMeister software isn’t quite like anything else on the market. It’s designed for people who care enough about their music to refine a mix until it’s perfect, rather than throw everything together on the fly and hope that it sounds OK. You won’t be limited by on-screen simulations of turntables or CD players, either — you can “tweak” any part of your mix creation in a timeline instead. When you’ve got the mix just the way you want it, you can play it, burn it to CD, stream it over the Web, or reshape it in real-time for live performances.
