Rocktave has updated Delta SP to v1.7, a semi-major update featuring sampler and plugin improvements. They also updated most of their plug-ins and released two new ones - Fiction, a sampler based synth, and SynthBassFact2 which provides a stack of synth oscillators for the bass and low mid range.

Similar to the Fact2 series of plugins, Fiction simply plays sampler-banks as they are. This means less parameters, which translates to much less CPU overhead.

Features:

• Loads and plays Delta SP Sampler-banks.
• Imports Soundfont (.sf2) files.
• Low CPU overhead.
• Pitch glide.
• Polyphony control up to 32 voices. Can function as mono or polyphonic synth.
• 7 Effects - Reverb, Chorus, Distortion, Delay, Phaser, EQ and XFilter.
• Effects modulation matrix with six LFOs.
• Effects pre and post gain.
• Built in Sub presets for each effect and master effects.

SynthBassFact2 is like an analogue style synth except it does not use normal sawtooth and sine waves to create the sound - it uses bass synth sampled instruments.

• 2 Oscillators.
• +- 100 bass synth instruments per oscillator.
• Pitch glide.
• Polyphony control up to 32 voices. Can function as mono or polyphonic synth.
