Another round of beta testing has passed, a brand new stable and rock solid Renoise is ready for production.

The first Release Candidate of Renoise 2.5 is now available. Release Candidates are the last steps before declaring the version Final.

That means if you are an unregistered user, you can finally download the demo. Together with the registered users we have intensively tested and finetuned the release during the last months. So we expect it to be rock solid.

Remixta exclusively features works from the Renoise community. Podcast Number 7 is now avilable at: www.remixta.net

On Friday the 8th of January 2010, Renoise.com was targeted by hackers.

To prevent any further harm, we immediately shut down the server. We then carefully analyzed what exactly had happened since the attack. This is why the website was down for so long.

You may have missed your chance to witness it live, but fortunately it has been recorded: Remixta First Time Live - Episode 6.

Just in time for a new decade, Renoise 2.5 BETA is here.

With the help of Achenar (i.e. Earthen Records), we've  produced a new video for beginners. Check out the Renoise Homepage to watch it. Me personally? I'm a fan of the thick Scottish accent. There's even a Japanese (日本語) version on YouTube (click the triangular button in the bottom right corner, and turn ON the captions). Pass it on.

The results of the Efficient Music Compo have been calculated and the winner was announced in a live internet radio show. For those who missed it, you can download it now: Efficient Music Compo Show [50MB].

The The Efficient Music Competition is almost over and we want YOU to vote. The submitted songs combine awesomeness with low CPU usage which is exactly what we are looking for. All that remains is picking the winning song. Vote now - the voting booths are closing this Sunday.

The "optimize your song like hell" aka Renoise/Indamixx/CDM compo has a new name; The Efficient Music Competition. We have just opened a new mini-site on renoise.com, where you can upload and download songs, discuss optimization techniques and vote for competition entries - in a special kind of way.
