The original Progression redefined the capabilities of guitar tab software, and now Progression 2.0 leads the industry with an even more intuitive interface, compatibility between desktop and iPad, and great playback featuring real guitar samples performed by guitarist Neil Zaza, bass samples by Victor Wooten, and drum samples by Roy "Futureman" Wooten.

Progression 2.0 allows users to work on multiple platforms, with compatibility between Progression for iPad and desktop computers. Musicians can begin a composition on their desktop, make on-the-go edits via iPad, and then bring the project back to the desktop for final editing. With Progression 2.0, musicians have the freedom to work where and when they want.

Propellerhead released today Radical Keys, a new Rack Extension instrument for Reason that faithfully recreates three classic electromechanical keyboards—Rhodes, Pianet and Wurlitzer. Based on the same 'Radical' technology as Propellerhead's highly praised Radical Piano, Radical Keys goes beyond flawless emulation, by enabling users to sculpt their own instruments from the originals.

Using Grammy-award winning audio engineer Niklas Flyckt, Propellerhead captured the original instruments in full detail at Sveriges Radio (SR) in Stockholm. Nothing was left to chance, from the careful selection of the amplifier to the separate recording of key and pedal noises.
