One Small Clue has announced that version 1.0 of the Poise Percussion Sampler is available now as a VST instrument plug-in for Windows. Now that Poise is out of beta, the price has changed from $30 to $49.

While at heart Poise is just a sampler, it has been designed from the ground up with drums in mind. The workflow and options available have been tweaked to this end.

Features:

• 16 Drum Pads.
• 8 Samples per Drum Pad.
• Multiple Sample switching modes:
  • Round Robin.
  • Random.
  • Trigger All (for layering multiple samples).
  • Support for velocity splits.
• Inbuilt sample browser with preview.
• Drag and Drop sample loading.
• 2 - 16 stereo outputs.
• Comprehensive Pad and Sample editing with:
  • Amplitude + Pitch Envelopes.
  • Volume + Balance + Pitch.
  • A user assignable FX module.
  • Humanisation.
• Edit multiple pads simultaneously.
• Does not break when samples are moved.

Changes since the last beta:

• New: Can now change the order of folders in the browser (click and drag).
• Fixed: When using MIDI to auto select Pads they would be triggered with an incorrect velocity value.
• Fixed: The sample displaying wasn't drawing reversed samples correctly.
• The "Embed Samples In Project" option is now saved when saving a project instead of being saved in the options file.
