Song Protection

Hey glad you’ve noticed my contribution. :rolleyes: We still don’t know if the DRM thing is a good or a bad idea… it could attract some serious people, but as dblue said, if you make it hard to crack it’ll be considered like a challenge. When a group of experienced crackers wants to hack/crack a hardware or a challenging software protection, it’s a question of time…

There are lots of questionnable ideas, in my Renoise 3 wish list (integrated renoise music charts featuring registered users only, winamp-like visualisations, uncompressed avi video import and native granual video sync/edition features)… Some of those ideas will probably never be added into renoise. I think that the devteam probably sorts ideas in the “renoise todo list” ; the popular ideas that everybody need, are developped at first. And the DRM thing should be placed at the end of this list.

Lots of less questionnable ideas seems to regularly occur in this section of the forum : - a more “vertical” solution, (including a kind of vertical sample editor or vertical audiotrack), a better sync between the vertical pattern workflow and the sample editor workflow… multiband compression, mb distorsion device, some new spectral-analysis oriented meta devices - a doofer ™ meta device - some new DSPs, for example, a pitch shifter DSP able to tweak the track’s default sample-based instrument with 2400 cents… maybe renoise 3 could also introduce some “surround”, or “binaural 3d sound”, or “3D positionning” DSPs ? what about an impulse response loader ? - lots of people are expecting some important sample editor improvements (like the “warp mode”, easy pitch shift / time stretch between slices)…

To make it short, let’s work primarily on things that raise no objections.
