Coming Soon. Immerse yourself in spatial music production with RipX DAW and the reality-shifting Apple Vision Pro.
Imagine: A 3D display sits before you. All audio, whether live recorded, MIDI or stem separated, is presented as fully editable notes, with instruments distinguished by distance. This is a DAW unlike any other. No waveforms in sight, just pure sound as you hear it.
Then explode the music to fill your room. Walk around and interact with melody while it plays through you, just like it’s really there. This is a new way to create and enjoy sound that needs to be experienced to be believed.
Get lost in the music.
“One of the key advantages of working with audio in RipX DAW, is its ability to visualise the partials within a stem. Bringing this functionality to the Apple Vision Pro creates space for these and adds another level of immersion for artists wishing to explore audio with the latest technology. In the future, collaborating in shared virtual spaces will be common.“

Sorry, I own the Meta Quest 3. Apple will never reach 1 million sales, why did you go with Apple?

I’m a RipX Pro owner, and really stoked to see this! I do some work with binaural audio and already have an immersive workflow of sorts for managing some of it in VR (actually most of it). As a Cubase user I also have some immersive options, but it would be AMAZING to get your stuff in there since it’s such a visceral process already. Please add me to your list if you plan to do a TestFlight, I would be happy to add my long time technical skills and testing experience to the Mix (sorry, I had to do it ;))
The Vision Pro is a niche within a niche. Hand tracking for applications like this is also a novelty. Most YouTubers have already sent their overpriced click-baits back by now.
There will be a “whoa neat” moment for a while, until the user soon goes back to more accurate and reliable input methods that do not require waving one’s arms all over the place for an hours-long session. I think Vision Pro support is a massive waste of time and resources for a growing company. Netflix and YouTube are not even making applications for it.
This is not a “sour grapes” response. Even though I have a Quest 3, I have no interest in using hand tracking for a DAW and would likely not even use the Quest with this software even if available. I have used DAWs for thousands of hours, I can not even imagine trying to use one with hand tracking, even though I do use hand tracking for other things.
I have a feeling someone on your dev team has a Vision Pro. Please consider the majority of your customers instead of the tens of people who would own both a VP and your software.
One of the most significant features of Vision Pro is that it uses eye tracking, and you can leave your hands where they are to select items, drag etc…
