Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

With Music Director Gold, top music software maker eJay lays down the standard for all audio software engines; and even if Music Director Gold is not without faults, it's a standard that will be fairly hard to match.

Music Director Gold features 9,000 samples that can be mixed and melded onto 256 slickly organised on-disk tracks. The relatively foolproof interface allows you to swiftly locate just the right groove or lick, which you can then drag 'n' drop into your budding meisterwerk. As with all eJay products, the software automatically matches up the tempos and timbres, so there are no jarring musical mismarriages. The same goes for the effects, such as solo/mute, panorama and so on. One interesting add-on allows you to do funky stuff with Wave Editing and Time Stretching; another feature allows you to import or export your tracks as MP3s and data files. You can also make your own digital videos, and export them too; moreover, everything you make can be automatically backed-up to CD-ROM or hard disk.

So what's the catch? Well, there's nothing truly revolutionary about this kit, despite what some might claim; what is gratifying is seeing it all in one comprehensive package. --Sean Thomas



Manufacturer's Description

One line sums it up: Music Director Gold is the definitive music production package. This Gold edition combines the best of eJay software, splicing the acclaimed Music Director Pro and Sound Collection #5 (including samples by chart-topping remixer Junkie XL) across an amazing 5 CDs! Choose from 9,000 royalty-free sounds and loops to mix and edit your tracks on an innovative desktop interface.

The Stuttgart developers have added that extra ‚gold-plating’ by creating a new eJay audio engine with an astounding 256 stereo audio tracks in CD quality plus 8 video tracks with endless real-time effects and fades which can be added to via DirectX video plugins. An FX Studio for internal and external effects (VST 2.0 effect plug-ins), including a Wave Editor and Time & Tune Generator complete the line-up. Almost all parameters such as volume, panorama and effects can be easily manipulated using the innovative curve editing technique.

Karolj Nadj, Senior Product Manager: "With Music Director Gold we are offering state-of-the-art technology at an unbelievable price point. We’re particularly proud of the audio engine which gives you incredible freedom when producing and mixing down tracks. The user interface supports beginners and pros alike, combining high-end technology with intuitive handling. Now you can produce music with the ultimate definitive direction! Follow on the footsteps of Leftfield, Bassment Jaxx and the Chemical Brothers and be your own producer. Leave behind overpriced recording studios, decks and all that Jazz.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ejay Music Director Gold., 19 Oct 2004
This piece of software is a very good all round music production program. It comes with thousands of samples if you want that kind of thing but I use it only for audio. I create songs using my keyboard, guitar, bass guitar and microphone running through a mixing desk. I have used more expensive programs like cubase and pro tools which are literally ten times more expensive and I'd say that this was a very good contender. It's easier to use than cubase and pro tools and costs £25!
It took me a while to realise that this program doesn't support audio input which is disappointing, but audio outputs from external sources work just as well plugged into a microphone socket.
All in all, a good program. For £25, it's a true, true bargain.
Compares to the best music making programs in the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Music director gold, 5 Mar 2003
By A Customer
OK, ejays music director gold a great way for all you young rapper's, mc's, dj's and of course music director's. With it's 9000 free samples 256 audio tracks in brilliant quality Music Director Gold is the one stop for all your music needs. Using these funky tunes and complimentary sounds groove through the experience of making your own songs . Also packed into this masterpiece is a bunch of video tracks for making your very own videos and eJay Audio Engine for great editing and producing, and brilliant quality of sound is another marvellous feature. And finally as all you know your old music makers would change pitch as you speeded the song up, and yes you guessed it this blessing from God doesn't using it's auto time stretcher. My vote 5 out of 5 a definite top seller

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need, 8 Nov 2003
By A Customer
This is a great piece of software. With 9,000 samples there is actually endless amounts of time you can spend making an editing your music.
This is awesome, probably the best out of the Ejay series if you want a bit of everything.

Definately worth getting.
