The latest Strike 1.5 instrument includes new features and more content (30 GB total!) to provide you with even more beat versatility. Use your own sounds with new WAV and AIFF sample import, gain more efficiency with the enhanced Style editor, discover over 10 GB of new drum kits and percussion elements, explore 55 new styles (for a total of 205 styles), and more.
Velvet — Vintage Electric Pianos
Whether you're inspired by '60s soul, '70s classic rock, or '80s "glassy" sounds, Velvet delivers stunningly realistic emulations of your favorite electric pianos, from vintage classics to a massively popular digital synth.
The latest Velvet 1.3 e-pianos plug-in features a new reverb effects module with three reverb types (Ambience, Spring, and Room) and introduces nine new FM tines that deliver unique sonic characteristics, including classic '80s-inspired "glassy" digital piano sounds.

Hybrid — High-definition Synthesizer
For sound buffs who love to get their hands dirty, Hybrid combines the warmth of classic analog waveforms with digital wavetables, enabling you to re-create sounds you remember, or create something no one's heard before.
The latest Hybrid 1.6 synth delivers a new Multi-Square waveform to generate even more unique sounds; introduces Blue, White, Mod, and Crackle waveforms to the noise oscillator to offer more texture versatility; and includes 256 all-new patches for fast and easy sound production in the studio or on stage.
