reKon audio has released VST PolyLite Editor v1.1 and announced version 1.3 of VST Pulse Editor.

VST PolyLite Editor is a custom designed interface with absolute control for MF-Berlin's MFB-PolyLite hardware analog synthesizer. It is designed to handle all parameter control changes in realtime and patch storage and retrieval in the VST format for the MFB-Polylite analog synthesizer. The editor was a coordinated effort between reKon audio, GSF Agency's Geoff Farr and MF-Berlin's Manfred Fricke, the owner and builder of the German made synthesizer.

Features:

• Realtime MIDI synth editor that allows you full control of every parameter of the sound on the MFB-PolyLite hardware synthesizer.
• The user-interface adds features to the PolyLite, such as the ability to name your patches in a way that makes them understandable.
• Maintain all your patches on your computer without the hassle of manual dumps.
• All parameters are fully automatable.
• Use your favorite VST host, giving you the ability to visually program the PolyLite to your music via the host sequencer.

Version 1.3 of VST Pulse Editor is a complete redesign - it was rebuilt completely in C++ for several reasons, including platform portability, increased performance and more control. In addition to an improved look and feel, the performance in memory use has been improved by over 800% compared to the first two versions.

Changes:

• Complete redesign in C++.
• All new GUI.
• Increased CPU and memory performance by over 800%.

VST PolyLite Editor v1.1 is currently available for Windows and costs $39.95; VST Pulse Editor v1.3 for Windows will be released on 10th April, 2006.

Mac OS Classic and Mac OS X versions of both plug-ins are coming soon.
