Beta 0.90 Poly-Ana is now "feature-complete" and includes a new VST effect version as well as the regular VST instrument version!
Beta 0.90 is "Release Candidate 1", there may be further releases in the 0.9x series to address possible bug fixes and the 1.0 release will follow that, not before March 1st. So here's your last chance to take advantage of the Buy-in-Beta introductory offer to save $60 off the regular price of $129.95 (USD). If you've been waiting to try Poly-Ana, now is the time!
Poly-Ana is finally here! Poly-Ana is now in the final "Release Candidate" stage of the Beta release. Poly-Ana offers a free, one week, fully-functioning evaluation period and all features on the Coming Soon list have now been filled in so if you've been waiting to try Poly-Ana, try her now!
Changes:
* Poly-Ana is now a VSTi synthesizer and a VSTfx effect
* Fixed processor compatibility bug
* Added hold (damper) button to GUI, right of keyboard
* VSTi version: INPUT-1 and INPUT-2 buttons on the filters now add tracking of monophonic keyboard performances on 2 extra MIDI channels
* Fixed buzzing sound from resonant filters in -12dB/Oct mode when cutoff raised too high
* Playing the GUI keyboard now sends velocity to MIDI output
* Fixed compatibility issues on some CPUs
* Added more presets
Get ready for a new experience in virtual analog synthesis! Poly-Ana uses a different approach than most other VA soft-synths which we feel delivers a sound more authentic to the early analog synths that inspired her features. This "brute-force" method admittedly requires more processing power than other common techniques, but is a far truer model of the functioning of real analog instruments. If you obsess over the quality of your sound like we do then you won't mind using a bit more CPU power to help get you closer to that real analog sound; a sound that so many other VA synths fall too-far short of. (Note that Poly-Ana also offers a Quality option to reduce CPU usage during performance-time at the expense of sound quality.) Poly-Ana's voice architecture is an ambitious combination of all the best features of the famous analog classics, plus a few new features (totaling 185 controls!) which, while possible back in the day, would have been prohibitively expensive to implement in hardware. But as a software-only product, Poly-Ana doesn't face these limitations, and we held nothing back in designing our "ultimate analog dream synth". Combine this with a classic styled design that puts every parameter a single click away, with large, easy to grab knobs and switches that behave like the real-world items; and with no hidden drill-down menus so that each and every control is prominently displayed out where you can see it; Poly-Ana offers a true alternative in software synthesis.
