Homegrown Sounds releases Astralis FX

Homegrown Sounds has released Astralis FX, a new VST multi-effect plug-in for Windows.

Astralis FX is based on the effects section of the the Homegrown Sounds' Astralis range of synthesizers and offers a world of sound transformation, ranging from lush pads to industrial destruction.
