Ftec-Audio has released version 1.04 of HV-Formant, the worlds first Heptaverton Surround™ VSTi softsynth.
Heptaverton means seven points, connections (vertices). The format is based on 6 speakers equally distributed over a 360 degree circle around the listener (the seventh point). The principal is that the product in the centre, at the seventh point, the listener, is more than the sum of the six surrounding points (the sound production of the individual speakers).
