What's new in the V5?


The V5 contains more than 300 improvements and modifications, especially a new engine, more powerful and lighter.
Here are presented some of the most interesting :
Gesture and Multi-touch Implementation.
All design modules can receive Multi-Touch and Gesture informations that you can use directly in all the patches to create very ergonomic systems.
Video Tracker Module.
Enables audio interaction with a camera. Motion detection, dark zones and light zones.
Intelligent Auto Wiring
Fast auto wiring system to build patches faster than ever... For that just Drag&Drop a Module or a VST directly on the wire to insert it in the process chain.
New Grid concept
The new Grid mode mixes row/cell presentation and interface builder mode.
Surround
Built-in 16 channels surround mixer and aux buses. If it's not enough, all audio modules can handle up to 64 channels.
Direct surround recording in the Sampler.
VST's layouts
Total integration of VST's in personal interfaces. Vst's forms can now be located in controls panels or in interfaces.
Patch window
The Patching area is now a stand alone window to improve paching in dual screens systems.
New layouts
Serious improvements of interface building. All controls are now resizable and with new layouts possiblilities.
