Cutting Edge Browser Technology VS Propellerheads Reason

I spent 5 minutes on hobnox.com’s interesting Audiotool. If you’ve been having fun with Propellerheads Reason (which is a killer KILLER production software) you’re going to have allot of fun with this.

Here are some highlights:

  • Beautifully Flash driven interface.
  • A huge scalable workspace.
  • Tonnes of beautifully rendered stompboxes.
  • TR-808, TR-909, and TB-303 models.
  • Each instrument and effects loads upon dragging onto the work surface (nice and efficient)
  • AND you can record tracks.

For a web-app. This is damn cool, you can’t complain. However:

  • Why not a more decent mixer … with faders?
  • Can we have less Roland-fanservice. Throw in an Oberheim, or a Korg.
  • Not a really super-accurate emulation (especially the filters).

Head over and take a look. Tonnes of fun.

    Hey John, thanks a lot for this. Sounds great. I have forwarded your thoughts about improvements to the developers.
    In a next step (early 09) we will add timeline and arrangement functionality as well as hopefully the ability to collaborate on the same setup from different locations.

    Cheers again, David / Hobnox
