Flux releases AAX Native and 64-bit IRCAM HEar and IRCAM Verb Session and updates other plug-ins to v3.1.1

Flux has announced the release of the AAX Native and 64-bit compatible versions of IRCAM HEar - Binaural encoder and IRCAM Verb Session - Algorithmic session reverberation processor, built on their new Version 3 (v3) framework. Also, its other plug-ins have been updated to v3.1.1 Build 31018.

Version 3 Framework

The v3 framework improves the performance dramatically and for the graphic rendering it includes a GPU-efficient 2D/3D graphic engine, first introduced in the Pure Analyzer System, based on the OpenGL standard optimizing the audio-to-visual experience utilizing the GPU on the computer's built in graphics card.

With the Flux:: v3 framework support for OSC (Open Sound Control) is introduced in order to allow for remote control of the plug-in parameters using OSC enabled devices and software applications such as TouchOSC for iPhone / iPod Touch / iPad.
