I dislike calling them genres, they're more like trends or styles. One producer makes something new and unusual that breaks the established patterns, people like it a lot, other producers copy it, and that cycle continues until fans ge

inMusic is just a different conglomerate owning Akai, Alesis, Moog, M-Audio, Denon DJ, Numark, Rane... If Samsung buys them as well (which didn't happen right now, but I'm sure it's what they're aiming for), the monopoli

Considering when the standard was written (v2 in 1999 and v3 in 2008), what else would they be? As horrible as it sounds, a VST is just a .dll file you're running straight from the Internet. On a "positive" note, they're

Okay, but why would you? What's the advantage of that? VSTs are resource hogs (when you have like 10+ running at once), not DAWs. I somehow doubt a full-blown browser connected to more than a couple of VSTs would be less of a resource

They're never gonna let you upload and run your own executable files to their infrastructure. That + latency with MIDI devices is why every DAW-in-a-browser is just a toy.

I disagree wholeheartedly, the current state of browser market share has nothing to do with how good any of the browsers are, it's just monopolistic behavior. Device manufacturers should force you to pick one during setup, which is abs

The only reason Safari has any market share is because it's the default on every iPhone. 4/5 top browsers by market share are there because they are preinstalled on millions of devices and none of them are terrible enough for an a

The same way any tech company works now: use investor money to offer things for free or unrealistically cheap until you corner the market, and once your competitors are no longer relevant you start milking every buck you can.
