INTRODUCTION
WELCOME
Mixcraft’s Teaching Guide is designed to compliment educational programs that use Mixcraft.
The book examines Mixcraft’s many capabilities including, for example, digital signal processing
and music composition. Suggestions on how Mixcraft can be incorporated into both music
and non-music assignments (such as marketing/advertising, podcast creation, and the spoken
word performances) are provided throughout the course of the book. Also with the book is an
“Additional Material Download” which includes teaching aids, such as printable lesson plans
(in .pdf form), that give students and educators the ability to work through assignments together.
Most importantly however, the text offers strategies for teaching these principles and articulates
complex concepts in terms that students will understand. In addition, the internet contains many
tutorials on various areas of Mixcraft use. Acoustica’s YouTube page contains dozens of Mixcraft
tutorial that are guided by Craig Anderson. Finally, Mixcraft has an excellent “Help” section
accessible once the software has been opened. Feel free to use these resources in conjunction
with this manual.

THE LAYOUT OF THE BOOK
Chapter 1 begins with suggestions on constructing a music lab. Various designs are offered to help
educators create an ideal teaching environment. Chapter 2 examines Mixcraft’s various functions
and features including details of the interface and preferences for tweaking the software to match
the demands of the individual classroom. Chapters 3 and 4 offer brief tutorials on two principal
areas – how to use both audio and MIDI with Mixcraft. For educators interested in developing
film or video lesson plans, Chapter 5 covers Mixcraft’s video functions. All of the software’s extra
features, such as plugins, virtual instruments, and audio loops, are included in Chapter 6.
And finally, Chapter 7 covers what presumably the majority of educators will be interested in
– music composition using Mixcraft.
There has been a strong demand for lesson plans specifically designed for Mixcraft. Consequently,
the final two-thirds of this manual offer detailed, exemplary lesson plans that are designed
specifically for grade school, middle school, and high school students. The lesson plans are
divided by estimated classroom time and by relevance to interdisciplinary topics. Chapter 8
covers the formal introduction to these comprehensive lesson plans.
