No, at first they’re like “oh, it’s full of numbers, I don’t get it” and go to a more visually appealing DAW. But the ones who’ll try Redux are the ones who will be specifically looking for a sampler ( not a main DAW ) where Renoise / Redux is unmatched, and they’ll get the tracker approach with phrases and stuff… And won’t be afraid of using Renoise anymore.
I don’t think it’s the tracker approach which keep people away from Renoise, but the fact that it´s abstract : you can’t visualize waveforms, or notes, or an instrument icon, all you see are numbers. But once they’ll get the good sides of it with Redux in their OWN DAW ( it’s an invasion ! ), they’ll think twice.
Well, hopefully. At least it’s worth trying.
