Trying to revive and perhaps update my Opcode Studiovision DSP application. What happened to Opcode? Their web page is old and not maintained.

Will my efforts be worth it? If Opcode is dead, what is the favorite alternative?

Thanks all!

Sadly Opcode is a dead horse so to speak. Gibson bought up Vision - they axed the development and put one of developers in the loony bin.
It's probably true that he was'nt the most socially adept of people - still he was a brillant programmer.
Gibson managed to destroy one of the best products around, because a neurotic CEO needed to have complete control over people, show who was boss over all creation. ( I forget his name - he seemed like a royal asshole )

Warner Bros/Time could probaly have written a complete Dallas series of the whole whooray and made bundle of it.

It seems common that people like me - who used Vison for a long time, feel at home with Motu:s Digital Performer 4. There's been some development pains in the new DP4 version, but it's a awesome a DAW. ( http://www.motu.com/ ) By and large I heartily recommend it.
