Swar Systems has updated Swar Studio to version 1.1, which now lets you add your own custom virtual instruments to the mix - you can now use your own professional synths to replace the inbuilt ones or simply add new sounds.

Changes in Version 1.1.0:

• Added Sound Engines tab in Options panel to use custom VSTi or Audio Unit synths as new instruments or to replace the default ones.
• New option to make quantization of a loop permanent.
• New Repeat x times option to repeat a loop.
• Corrected a bug that was affecting proper quantization in some cases.
• Made Loop Editor resizable for easier editing of longer sequences.
• Shift-Drag loop border increases/decreases loop without stretching/condensing its notes.
• Paste now copies a loop of the same duration as the one copied.
• Paste now copies a quantized loop and not just the original.
• Saves the track plugin parameters in the song file.
• Corrected a bug with audio tracks spreading on a large number of bars.
• Reduced CPU consumption when idle.
• Increased volume range on in-built instruments.
