All seems to be working fine after resetting permissions via console per the above link/thread.

#Harrison mixbus review 2013 install#

I believe I had an issue with permissions from an old install of Audacity. In the crash report, is there any info about not being able to find a usr/local/lib file or directory?Ĭheck the Harrison forums, but I found this solution right after I emailed support. Hackintosh users, beware!!!Are you getting an error where it gives you the crash report and nothing else? I installed mixbus and had it crash on startup everytime. Seems like the morning is for fact finding and sorting out boring shite, not mixing. So now I have one main machine with Mixbus on it that won't even open and the other machine completely twatted by this until I fix it. Maybe that one wouldn't have crashed out the laptop, who knows. So I just found Harrison have a version of Jack they say to use on Yosemite, but this was not exactly well advertised. So then I put it on my Hackintosh laptop running Yosemite and law and behold, installing the version of Jack that comes with Mixbus 2.5 completely shut down my access to booting OSX at all!! Still boots into Windows, but OSX has gone fishing completely. I put it on my Hackintosh running Mavericks, and whilst Jack installed and seems to work fine Mixbus crashes out at launch. soooooo what was meant to become a great fun morning piping this mix I'm working on from Logic into Mixbus turns into a bit of a feast of wrong. Certainly I have had bad experiences and not-so-good sound from software that is quite expensive. May be more of a labor of love and support for open source as much as anything. Ben Loftis from Harrison is listed as one of the Ardour developers.

Not sure if they are really trying to make money from it, which is kind of a refreshing thing. I think the reason for the low cost is that it is built on the open-source Ardour DAW, and they just ported the algo's from their digital consoles and changed up the mixer UI. The fast and easy workflow is probably just as good of a reason to use Mixbus as the sound. Better is a subjective thing, but I'll just say that they are on par with the best software I've used. The built in EQ's and compressors are great and extremely usable, especially for a fast workflow, but the excellent stuff is their proprietary plugin set. This in my experience is actually closer to what a good tape machine like a Studer does. If you push it harder then it starts to add more of a saturation effect.

What it does unless you push it is limit inaudible transients to raise the entire signal, while remaining transparent.

Yet I am receiving offers (annoyingly EVERY DAY) for crossgrade (again) and to upgrade Mixbus. Performance is sloppy in Windows (to say the least). The tape sim is excellent, but it may be different than using tape sims that basically add harmonics. Mixbus has seen very little improvements and support along the years. Yes, I know that in general all DAWs sum exactly the same.

Not sure what they cooked into the summing algorithm to make it sound different from other DAWs, but it does.

You'd probably want to use individual tracks, not stems, for the full effect.
