Now you can record with Mixcraft multiple MIDI and audio tracks simultaneously. In addition, it includes software synthesizers.

Version 4 Changes:

Support for MIDI – record and playback.
Integrated support for VSTi software synthesizers.

Presets allow you to make mega instruments, combining effects and virtual synthesizers.

So, Mixcraft works well and its easy to use. There are embedded MIDI tracks and softsynths as a bonus. Learning curve is very short, you can get the feel this software during a day. I think, it`s good recording software to getting started with home recording.
