New gear for 2026

A lot of speculation in this thread, but also some very sane information. What I will tell you is all I can tell you, so don’t @ me about your specific feature request etc please!

  • Current Engine hardware is not dead, it will continue to receive updates (I can’t tell you when exactly). Rane is just one of the inMusic brands that we have our software running on, it just happens to be the first one of it’s kind
  • We don’t have a large team and it has taken us a lot of work to get the System One to where you see it now, we have more hardware in the works, but I will not share a timeline for when you’ll see that
  • Yes the rest of the ecosystem will benefit from some of the features we built for the System One, again there is no fixed timeline or set of features I can share with you
  • Your feature requests are read and understood if you have been through the standard voting process, we just can’t implement them all. Some of them contradict each other and others are too niche for instance, but you should recognise that there are a few of those top requests being brought to life in the System One, so know that we are listening and responding, though we have to mix the business interests along with those requests as well

Hope you’re all happy and healthy, carry on the debate, but always remember there’s a human on the other end of that debate, we can all benefit from kindness and respect!
