SONiVOX has announced the release of the latest versions of its Downloadable Virtual Instrument plug-ins. These plug-ins, branded as DVI 2.0, give musicians and composers instant access to a large collection of sample based virtual instruments for Mac OS X and Windows.

DVI 2.0 adds features in addition to offering deeper control over SONiVOX's next generation of in-house developed synthesis engine technology. It also includes additional DSP / Special FX by iZotope.

As a part of the rollout SONiVOX is offering a free trial program allowing musicians to try these downloadable virtual instruments before they purchase them. "The success of DVI 1 affirmed our continued development to the DVI platform. In these unsure times, users have embraced value priced instruments. This coupled with the ability to try DVI instruments before they have to make a purchasing decision, make DVI extra relevant for the times. Our DVI's are instantly accessible, great sounding, inexpensive and now offer even more flexibility than before," commented Al Joelson, SONiVOX Director of Sales, Marketing, & Business Development.
