MAGIX Software GmbH is a Berlin-based multimedia software company founded in the early 1990s in Dresden, Germany. The company's flagship music product, Music Maker, debuted in 1994 as an accessible beat- and song-creation tool aimed at hobbyists and aspiring producers. Over time, MAGIX expanded its audio lineup to include Samplitude, a professional-grade digital audio workstation used in broadcasting and music production. In 2016, MAGIX acquired several marquee audio and video titles from Sony Creative Software, including ACID Pro — the pioneering loop-based DAW originally created by Sonic Foundry — and Sound Forge, a long-respected audio editor known for precise waveform editing and mastering.

On the audio side, MAGIX's portfolio spans entry-level tools like Music Maker and ACID Music Studio through professional workstations such as Samplitude Pro X and Sound Forge Pro. Samplitude has a loyal following among recording engineers and broadcast professionals for its object-based editing and low-latency performance. ACID Pro remains notable for popularizing loop-based composition workflows that influenced an entire generation of electronic and hip-hop producers. Beyond music, MAGIX also develops VEGAS Pro for video editing and Xara for graphic design, serving a reported user base of over 35 million people worldwide.

MAGIX has 27 products cataloged on Equipboard, including DAW Software, Video Editing Software, and FX Bundle Plugins. Their gear is featured by 23 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Hip Hop, and Rock. Notable users include Porter Robinson, Clams Casino, and Diplo.
