Virsyn's Terra Release Date Tells The Tale..., Two days after Jaguar release... Options

[Levon River]

I wrote in several other threads my belief that something in the Apple operating system has been acting as some sort of major hold up on the pro audio market for OS X, both hardware and software. (BusError's attestations and protestations notwithstanding--he said he ported Sibilius to OS X, and the Core Audio and MIDI was all good.) It's been a long, painful drought for musicians trying to move over into X, though, despite vertical-market specialties like Sibilius--however spectacular it is. (Sibilius, by the way, doesn't have to deal with audio tracking and editing, or hybrid audio/MIDI tracking and editing. Neither does Reason.)

And here we have a major audio-related software release slated for TWO DAYS after of the release of Jaguar, and I predict it's the first trickle of a flood, all to be triggered by the release of 10.2.

I know, I know, it's all just a happy coincidence, right? <Snort!>

I'll be very interested to see what those new audio and MIDI thingies are.

And, BTW, at the top of the news is an announcement that NI's Kontakt will be released for Mac at-- Well, can you imagine that! At the end of August--just after Jaguar is released! More coincidence!
