But Audio Units will never disappear in Macs. And having my AUv3s available, without weird audio routings between DAWS, it's the sole reason.Ĭlap has a lot of potential to eradicate the VST format from Windows as the industry standard. Honestly, even me, who I am in love with Bitwig, I'm thinking in not renewing my license this Christmas, switching to Ableton. Which it's great for other purposes, such as mastering, live band recording, rock music, etc. If you look at what music apps are available on iOS, they have a big focus on innovative features intended for creating experimental music, creating modular workflows.Īll this public is on Ableton, or to a lesser extent, on Bitwig. I think that now a lot of iOS developers will try to push Mac compatible Universal builds. Well, I think that AUv3 will be BIG this year, thanks to Ableton implementing the format. I don't use Bitwig, so I don't know this angle, but think about how much more drive might be behind AUv3 if Apple had made it an open standard and made the internal Logic plugins available as AUv3 on multiple platforms. Seeing the crazy things in modulations that can be done, and now having these same options in third party plugins, without restrictions, it's said: Saving a lot of resources.Īnd those saying that the industry doesn't needs other plugin format, they probably never used Bitwig internal synths. And due to the MIT license, they can use this as the basis to create its own dedicated Clap format, for example, that can only work in Pro Tools, if they want. Contrary to VST or AU, they're not adopting the format of a rival company. This is the reason of why Avid is studying the format. And they use FreeBSD in the operating systems of their consoles, because they can do any modification to the source code, doing zero contributions to the development if they want, including its privative code. I think that the key of why Clap can be a success and become the industry standard in the next 10 years, resides in its MIT license, in opposition to a GNU one. They have been super fast to implement new industry standards such as NKS controller support or MTS-ESP. ![]() And seeing the list, I will bet for Arturia. With is a list of developers currently studying to adapt the new format.Īnd according to Urs from U-He, the Juce framework will probably include an option to export to Clap, because it was demanded by one of his "biggest clients". I don't have the beta version of Bitwig installed, but as soon as 4.3 it's out, I will install Odin 2 to try this.īy the way, here is the complete press note in the Bitwig website: ![]() In addition to all the already working plugins in beta, there is a full release, working Clap synth: If you haven't seen it yet, the announcement for CLAP has gone out, ![]() Clap, an open source plugin format, developed by Bitwig, U-he and the Reaper team should be the future, once it's released this year.
