Solid State Logic X-Patch
The X-Patch software-controlled routing system from Solid State Logic brings the flexibility of plug-in style routing to boutique analog processing.

Synthogy Ivory II Piano
The latest version of Synthogy's flagship software, Ivory II is easily the most realistic sampled piano we’ve ever heard.
