Image-line has released v1.5 of Sytrus, the hybrid synthesizer, featuring a greatly expanded filter section, new reverb effect, enhanced harmonics editor, and new presets. They have also launched a "Group Buy" which offers you the chance to purchase Sytrus for only $50 (if 200 people sign up) - a huge saving of $129 off the normal price of $179!

New features:

• Improved harmonics editor, now allowing 128 harmonics to be edited and imported from single-cycle waveforms.
• Option to band-limit oscillators, to get rid of aliasing at a lower CPU cost than oversampling, handy for those presets that don't use FM.
• 7 new filters for a total 8x5 different filters.
• Waveshaper can now be bipolar (asymmetrical).
• New reverb in the effects section.
• Active operators are now marked in the main tab selector.
• Option to get rid of the Gibbs phenomenon in oscillators.
• Better waveshape sharing and small speed improvements.
• New envelope point modes (since Sytrus 1.1).
• Great new presets.
