The Foundation’s mission is to provide parents with information to participate wisely in their children’s learning.

MAGIX Music Maker 2004 Deluxe is easy-to-use music creation software that makes high-quality music, music remixes, and professional-looking music videos quickly and easily. Novices, both children and adults, as well as DJs, remixers, and producers of any skill level can create their own professional-sounding music, soundtracks and music videos in just minutes. The software is packed with pre-recorded sound loops for any style preference, from Hip-hop to Classical and an assortment of effects, editing, mixing and mastering equipment to create an expert-sounding composition. It’s easy to add video clips, apply effects or make beat-controlled visualizations for images that move in time with the rhythm of the music.

“We are honored to be awarded the coveted Parents’ Choice Recommended Award for MAGIX Music Maker,” said Jurgen Jaron, President and CEO, MAGIX. “This award reinforces the fact that Music Maker can inspire anyone to be more creative with music.”
