History

Cockos was found in 2004 by Justin Frankel after his departure from Nullsoft. The company name stems from mis-hearing a quote from the movie Office Space[2]. While the company also develops small software tools often released under an open source license[3] its main focus is on music software. They released their first music software product, a programmable effects processing software called Jesusonic on December 21, 2004[4]. Following up in 2005 they released the online music jam software NINJAM under the GPL[5] later that year the release of their flagship product REAPER followed.
