Propellerhead

At Propellerhead we understand how difficult it can be to purchase Christmas gifts for Developers. This year we thought we’d create the ultimate Wish List, and help make gift selection a little easier by offering up this guide: medium.com/propellerhead/…

It’s been over 3 months since we’ve been able to enter the office, we’ve had new colleagues see the office for the first time and old colleagues have the joy of catching up in person. To celebrate being able to gather, we hosted champagne and sweet treats for the occasion.

We have begun our accessibility training diving into the Design and Development of software. We have focused on some of the key issues: images, use of colour, responsive web design, and text. It has been a fantastic learning to take into consideration different disabilities.

We undertake training throughout the year to provide our developers with the ability to improve their craft. This month we have partnered with Access Advisors for a 5-week Accessibility training course. Digital accessibility is crucial to create a truly inclusive digital world.

Thanks @PropellerheadNZ @AvidAML for inviting us to your launch. Exciting times for the industry.

@jo_byden Hey Jo! We're Propellerhead in New Zealand - different than the one you're looking for, which I think now has rebranded to Reason Studios: reasonstudios.com. Thanks!

@PropellerheadNZ when are you going to update Reason on Windows so that it displays in high resolution? Last time I checked, it was 2021.

Last night we officially launched Avid AML to partners and supporters, and today the company is featured in NBR. Our journey building Avid AML started seriously in 2020 after Propellerhead’s founder Andrew joined the company as co-founder: nbr.co.nz/story/complian…

Don't let remote working stop you from gathering User Research 🙂 This article, which we wrote a few months ago during the last lockdown, shares some helpful guides and explains why Remote User Research might even be better than in-person options medium.com/propellerhead/…

Recently, we built a small site for a client where accessibility was a primary focus. We’ve open-sourced our code and provided info around the tools, so that others may benefit from our experience creating a simple, accessible website: @elyse.wyatt/weve-open-sourced-our-accessibility-first-app-7b77d0795776?source=friends_link&sk=1c151fbed49e91804e0bc3fbf89be62c" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@elyse.wyatt/w…
