Sinevibes has updated its Fraction "audio slicing workstation" Audio Unit plugin for Mac OS X to version 1.1. The update adds a host of new features such as forward-reverse playback mode, ability to change the order of effect units, and support for more time signatures.

Changes in Fraction v1.1:

• New repeater playback mode: forward-reverse.
• Function buttons to change the order of effect units.
• Support for 3/4, 5/4, 6/4 and 7/4 time signatures in both quadruplet and triplet timing.
• Design enhancements for slider and selector graphics.
• Multiple minor processor load optimizations.
• Reduced processor load in filter, phaser and frequency shifter algorithms.
• Re-tuned resonance response in filter algorithms.
• To reset a control to its default value, double-click can now be used in addition to command-click.
• Slice switches no longer turn off on sequencer timing change.
• New presets (for a total of 40 factory presets).

Price: $69 (the update is free to all existing users).
