Darwin Arts releases Trilobite 0.9.3 Free Beta Edition - Modular Synth for Mac & Win VST & AU

Darwin Arts has announced the release of Trilobite 0.9.3 Free Beta Edition, a soft synth for Mac OS X and Windows which lets you use Darwinian Evolution to create new modular synthesis audio patches.

This is a freeware beta edition that anyone can download from: www.darwinarts.com

Trilobite 0.9.3 is the successor to Cambrian Suite 0.9.2, and this time the evolutionary progression has been profound. Version 0.9.3 represents a "Cambrian Explosion" insofar as it makes the immense and necessary step of combining all of Darwin Arts previous separate evolutionary audio tools into one, with many other new features besides.
