ReWire
ReWire is a software protocol, jointly developed by Propellerheads and Steinberg, allowing remote control and data transfer among digital audio editing and related software. Originally appearing in the ReBirth software synthesizer in 1998, the protocol has since evolved into an industry standard.
Currently used in Mac OS and Windows audio applications, ReWire enables the simultaneous transfer up to 256 audio tracks of arbitrary resolution and 4080 channels of MIDI data. This allows, for example, the output from synthesizer software to be fed directly into a linear editor without the use of intermediate files or analog transfers. There are also provisions to remotely trigger actions, such as starting and stopping recording. The protocol is licensed to only to commercial software authors, but free of charge.
