The price is $450 for the full package, $99 for an upgrade from version 1 and the upgrade for 2.0 is free. 450 bucks might seem as a lot of cash, but if you consider the fact that for this price you would be able to buy only the simplest of hardware units it's quite a bargain. The new version has 4 new FX blocks and two new routing plugins: RV7000 Advanced Reverb: a decent sounding reverb effect with the most important parameters available for finetuning. Nice addition to the package, hope it doesn't consume too much CPU power BV512 Digital Vocoder: a 512-band vocoder which also doubles as a 512-band graphic EQ Now is your chance to make your own variations of 'Come over to the dark side, Luke' Scream 4 Sound Destruction Unit: a distortion emulator with basic features. Instant hardcore Ideal for grunging up your clean sounds and adding more grit to your basslines! UN-16 Unison: A classic ADT / chorus effect that emulates having multiple detuned oscillators. This will even make the thinnest sound gain a lot of fatness Spider Audio & Spider CV: a tool to split and merge signals. Essential for advanced audio designing. The merging works as a very basic mixing desk with four inputs and only level faders, but it is the splitter that is most interesting -> now you can take any signal and route it through several effects in parallel which can give incredibly powerful results. In two versions: for audio and CV Looks like the works to me More info and audio examples of the new plugins on propellerheads.se __ If you find spam on the site, please hit the button and select my name.
