Propellerhead Software and Digidesign announced the strategic relationship between the two companies that will include the development of ReWire2 for Digidesign Pro Tools systems. ReWire is a cross-application technology to transfer both MIDI and audio seamlessly between Propellerheads' Reason and ReBirth applications and Pro Tools. ReWire was designed as the software equivalent of a multi-channel cable between two audio applications and integrates MIDI, audio and transport control in one invisible application link.
Isn't that a GREAT news? ;)
