The Renoise project is not dead, but indeed it has been confirmed by taktik that they’reworking on something else. AndTBH I personallyfind that piece of information to be more exciting thanan upcoming “Renoise 3.2 beta testing starts” thread. Redux was awesome news for those of us who’re also spending lots of time in other hosts. Such a greatdecision from the developers right there, expanding into the plugin market.
Assuming the stuff they’re working onis actually related to music production, we wouldn’t be able toguess what’s coming out next from these sharp minds. Could really be anything from a new plugin to a new software or even an mobile app or some web service or some tracker equivalent of movie editing software (after all, taktik is also the lead programmer of the Sublime HD software, so it’s not too far stretched).
Now it seemsto me thatsomebody who’s using Renoise as his/her ONLY tool for making some noise today in 2016 is either 1) very happy with the product and/or busy composing music, or 2) very narrow minded and/orunable to master othertools out there.
Until the next major Renoise release,let’sall just learn Lua scripting andmake an effort to press the stop button onall those constant demands for more and more and more.It’s not a human right to have your favorite music software updated everyyear. If you can’t get the job done in Renoise 3.1, simply find what you need elsewhereand get the job done.
