- Multitrack Recording: Allows for recordings to be created simultaneously from multiple sound card or audio interface inputs simultaneously.
- Performance Clip Sequencing: Similar to Ableton and Bitwig, it supports pattern clip–based arrangement.
- Tempo Matching: This feature attempts to detect the tempo and key of a pre-recorded audio file, and changes the tempo to match the project tempo.
- Audio Time Stretching & Pitch Shifting: Mixcraft claims to use an advanced algorithm to provide high quality time stretching and pitch shifting while minimizing CPU usage.
- Multiple Import/Export Formats: Supporting MP3, WAV, WMA, OGG, FLAC, and AIFF file formats.
- Video Sequencing: Editing, Image Additions, Font Additions, Automation, and Effects (Supports MP4, AVI, and WMV etc files.).
