accSone has announced a free update to its granular synthesizer and effect plugin for Windows and Mac. Version 11.30 of crusher-X comes with “Stealth Mode”, a new user interface mode that supports high UI element contrast and removes color distraction to allow users to concentrate on the essentials of their productions.
We’re also happy to deliver on a customer request regarding a Default Program export. The Default program is automatically loaded when a new crusher-X plug-in is instantiated. In addition this free update comes with a lot of sound quality and handling improvements around the DCOs including functionalities to export and import DCO settings individually. And a new 7.1 Steinberg Surround Mode was added to support Atmos music tracks.
