Plasq today announced the availability of Rax 2.0 for Mac OS X, the latest version of the company’s music performance software. This update brings a range of improvements with a focus on the visual aspect of performance — both by reducing on-screen visual complexity for the performer, and by adding elaborate VJ visualizer output. The entire interface has been redesigned to feature a new fullscreen OnStage Hi-contrast interface. This design allows the performer to monitor Rax from a physical distance whilst remaining in control. In addition, Rax 2.0 adds a new model for building and organizing setlists, with remote control via MIDI and the Apple Remote, further streamlining this workflow. Rax 2.0 is priced at US$49.95.
