Baby have just released an update :
BA-1 v1. 5 is a free update for all owners of BA-1.
✱ New Effect Plugin - BA-1 FX Strip:
BA-1 isn’t just an analog modeled synthesizer. It also offers a meticulously modeled FX section, based on budget 1980s rack effects. Users have been asking for a standalone edition of BA-1’s effects chain since the early days and here it is! Use the FX Strip to run any audio through BA-1’s virtual circuits and add 80s-flavored drive, filtering, delay, reverb, chorus – and even BA-1’s speaker simulator.
✱ Arpeggiator:
Arpeggiators were an essential ingredient in the synth sounds of the 80s. For BA-1 v1.5, we’ve added a hands-on, hardware-style arpeggiator with three modes (up, down, up/down) and a three octave range. The arp allows for un-syncing from the host tempo for more authentic (i.e. slightly out of time!) effects.
✱ Flexible Chorus parameter:
The original BA-1 offered a simple on/off chorus effect, reminiscent of the Junos and other classic synths. In v1.5, the chorus can now be set anywhere between 0% and 100% for more creative flexibility.
✱ Easter eggs:
The colored dots between BA-1’s segments reveal some new additional synth parameters when clicked. LFO fade adds ramp time to the modulation wave that gradually (or abruptly) fades up to its set frequency for a more unpredictable LFO effect. Chaos introduces nonlinear behavior in the reverb and chorus algorithms for dissonance and unpredictable pitch glides.
✱ Improved preset browser:
BA-1’s preset manager has a vastly improved workflow in v1.5. Search presets by name, filter by pack, or mark patches with color-coded tags to remember them. You can easily import packs, create your own or browse the available BA-1 Expansions to add more sounds to your synth.
✱ New UI theme:

Woo-hoo! I've been using this quite a bit lately, bringing some really old songs across from 32 bit Orion into Studio One. It is so easy to get good sounds from, even easier to match to old sounds and generally really satisfying to work with. It sounds like there are some pretty useful new features in this update.

The effects strip looks like it might actually be a bit useful -
It includes the speaker emulation and the filter, which makes it a bit more useful than I thought it might be. The Drive effect works well in the synth, it will be interesting to see how it goes as an effect on other material.
