Re:Future of Rax and Wormhole2 - 2007/03/11 14:26Such a huge pity to see RAX being dropped. Like many of the contributors here, I had downloaded the demo version, was extremely impressed and was just about to purchase the full version. It really is the best way I'd found to quickly stack my non-standalone AU software synths together. I really hope that RAX can rise, phoenix-like from the ashes...heck, I'd even be happy to pay for an unsupported version. Please, please, please help out the music community out there who are desperate for this product!
Re:Future of Rax and Wormhole2 - 2007/03/16 20:47This months Sound on Sound column 'Digital Performer Notes' recommended Wormhole 2, last month they raved about Rax. I would too - if I could get them!
Your products would let my old G4 keep running UAD-1 plugs and pipe them to a new MacPro. Lads, it would make things so much easier (not to mention cheaper) if Wormhole & Rax were still available. Can I get a licensed copy somehow? No-support versions of both are fine.
Maybe you can talk to Future Publishing about selling the products .. their titles Future Music & Computer Music promote themselves with cover-DVDs, they might want to add your stuff to their library.
IMHO there's a growing market for "plug-in farm" products. Think about it.
The return on selling old machines/software is not much compared to being able to include them in an extended setup. Just because something is more than 2 years old doesn't mean it sounds bad, the opposite because you've had time to work with it and understand its deeper use. Mixing/mastering plug-ins particularly. In my own case the UAD cards are PCI but the MacPro has PCI-Express slots only, so paying a little would save me a lot.

In a way, I'm lucky, after having the demo sitting around for a couple of years, I finally tried out Wormhole a few of months ago because late last year I finally got myself a Mac, but have just a few Win only plugins I want to use. So I demoed Wormhole and bought it the same evening. Maybe one of the last purchasers?
Funnily enough, I'm also a software developer, and I thought Plasq might be a cool group to work with. And then about a month ago I was made redundant, and I vaguely though about contacting Plasq cold to offer my services. Maybe it would have given them someone to work on the audio stuff. But I've got another job now, so this is all just speculative.
I'd support the call for making it open source, rather than just disappear (hey, I'm almost tempted to ask for the source so I could support myself, at least ). While I don't know much about Rax, I think of the commercial vendors Wormhole is a good fit for the folks at Plogue. They're multi-platform audio developers, and their product Bidule already covers MIDI over a network (via the OSC protocol). It was the fact that they don't yet have network audio that made me look at Wormhole again.
Re:Future of Rax and Wormhole2 - 2007/03/23 07:42A real shame.. I'm looking forward to using Rax in conjunction with a performance piece I'm developing with a friend of mine. I'd like to see this product developed further..even if it's via opensource.
