Fretted Synth Audio has released Tripp Lead - the latest in their line of guitar/audio triggered synths. Tripp Lead uses a new design to track the audio input and they claim the results are "truly amazing", giving a faster more stable response with more sustain and control of the velocity tracking.

Features:

• Lead synth with a fat bottom and screaming sync’s, may also be tamed to become a smooth airy synth with it’s dual filters.
• Two VA style oscillators, square sub oscillator and a noise osc.
• Modulation with host sync and an envelope generator, provide a choice of many destinations.
• Two different moog style filters allow you to choose each one independently, run them parallel or serial.
• Tube Overdrive and distortion, with control of the tube hard/soft amount.
• Auto pan synced to ½, ¼ and eight notes of the BPM setting, can be applied to the main oscillator and the delay separately.
• A mono delay with modulation and a low pass filter, synced to the BPM setting. A reverb with limited control is also provided.
• Audio trigger section consists of only two knobs, (Gate) which sets the gates strength, (Decay) which sets the gates time to re-trigger.
• 128 presets to get you started.

Their two other plug-ins, GCBS (guitar controlled bass synth) and String Sculptor, have been upgraded to the same tracking as in Tripp Lead. Both have also undergone many changes and bug fixes.

All three plugins can be purchased together as FS bundle1 for US$89 (a saving of over 20% compared to purchasing each plug-in separately).

Demo versions are available.
