REALbasic 2008 r1 (Mac OS X)

Highly recommended!  

REALbasic does take more memory than well designed C programs. Now all Macs ship with 1GB of RAM REALbasic does take more CPU time than well designed C programs. Most user's CPU's are more or less idle all the time. REALbasic does create bigger files than Xcode. Most people nowdays have a fast DSL connection. The most affordable MacBook comes with a 120GB hard drive. With C/C++ the programmer's own resources are very much occupied. There is a huge amount of information to remember and take care of. With REALbasic, the user can use these spared resources in other areas. You can't write a game like WOW with REALbasic, as such thing would require the absolutely optimal use of the computer, but this doesn't mean that you are limited to just writing stuff like database apps with REALbasic. Features which are now crucial for me were just included a year ago. And they are still developing it. When it comes to bugs, in my own experience, the apps I have used extensively, they all have more or less bugs, except Reason. Paying for bug fix releases? REAL software is not a big company. Usually the same code works for both Mac and Windows, which is just amazing. REALbasic and C++ can work together too, you can hook your REALbasic application to C++ libraries easily. The IDE itself is slow to operate. How fast can you really write? Isn't that what most of the work is about? It is a Rapid Environment and you can accomplish good results with significantly smaller development teams and/or timelines. [alert admin]

From Developer  

It sounds like your computer might not be fast enough for Disco XT. Any Intel Mac should be sufficient as well as the faster PowerPC Macs. Echo and filters have been included for a while. Did you enable the Advanced Mixer option to show them up?
