To resize the width of columns, move the mouse over the black separator lines.
The cursor will turn into a left/right arrow; click and drag to resize column width.
Double-clicking the black separator bar automatically resizes the column to fit the
largest text in the column.

DOWNLOADING SOUNDS
One great Mixcraft feature is that all the loop library sounds are downloaded on
demand from our servers. If you click the play or add icon, and the sound does not
yet exist on your computer, Mixcraft immediately downloads it from the Internet.
(You’ll, of course, need to be online to receive new sounds, so don’t blame us if you
didn’t pay your pesky ISP!)

If you are having download problems, try switching your default download server
with the drop-down menu in Preferences>Library>Loop Library Download in the
Main Window menus.

To download more than one sound at a time, right-click on the library and choose
Download All In View. This will download all sounds in the current view. To cancel
all downloads, right-click and select Cancel Downloads.

OPEN CONTAINING FOLDER
For access to the actual sound file on your hard drive, right-click the sound and choose
Open Containing Folder to view it in its Windows Explorer directory.

ADDING SOUNDS TO THE MIXCRAFT LIBRARY
Sounds can be imported from your local hard drive, network locations, or loop CDs.
You can also import sounds from the workspace. Supported file formats include AIF,
MP3, OGG, WMA, and WAV.
