Apple Acquiring Italian Digital Audio Editing Software Firm Redmatica

It doesn't look like some folks here know what this software is. As a redmatica customer, lemme help.

This software cut its teeth on sample management and creation. For those of us professional sound designers and composers with MASSIVE amounts samlples and huge libraries for our EXS24 (the native logic sampler) managing all those files and keeping them optimized can be a major chore. Especially if you use external or additional internal drives.

redmatica sample managers have been a Godsend with regards to Logic. Apple acquiring this tells me that the manager may possibly be integrated, thereby furthering the development of Logic Pro. This, folks, is an AWESOME acquisition. Kinda like when apple first acquired Logic from a little German company called Emagic... It was the best thing to happen to the software.

Logic Pro users are stoked, trust me.

I don't understand the equation here.

Apple buys an audio editing software company that specializes in portable devices and this means the Pro is dead ?

How so ?

This looks like they are trying to make Garage Band better.

Why is this the death of Logic Pro? Logic Pro is an industry standard. Killing it would make no sense whatsoever.

They bought an audio editing software company, this means it can only improve Logic Pro, not kill it

If Apple is going to kill the MacPro they won't advertise it, they'll just take it from the store, like they did with the white macbook.

Its a shame but a the price it is now its a theft, a computer with that processing power with 4GBs OF RAM?! WTF apple? i'ts bad enough that you sell your laptops and imacs with 4gb of ram, it just doesn't make sence RAM is so cheap nowadays, i bought 8gb of ram for my 2011 mbp for a bit more then 30€...

Yup, Apple is canceling the Mac Pro. Thanks for the breaking news. Better go buy one before they go out of stock.

Edit: People, this is sarcasm.

And this post should shut people up but we know it wont.

As a longtime Steinberg user, I am not so stoked. If they keep Redmatica's product line intact, great. If it becomes a Logic-only thing, grmph.

Tim Cook said it yesterday.

"Apple doesn't buy companies for revenue streams".

So they bought this company to integrate into Logic Pro and Garage Band.

If Apple is going to kill the MacPro they won't advertise it, they'll just take it from the store, like they did with the white macbook.

Even worse only 3 GB RAM ;)

Gotta love the "professionals" and their "end-of-the-pro/logic" sandwich boards..
