Pro-Sounds has release reFX Vanguard VST Instrument (VSTi) Banks


Pro-Sounds has announced the release of Genusis, a new bank of 128 presets for reFX's Vanguard synthesizer.

Genusis was designed by Frank Genus who, Pro-Sounds says, "plunged deep into Vanguard's virtual circuitry and pulled out some of our hardest hitting sounds to date".

Genusis covers a broad range of sonic territory, from the obvious to the obscure. Users will find complex arps, esoteric pads, searing leads, otherworldly atmospheres, heavy-hitting basses, and more. Vanguard users off all stripes, from those producing Techno and D&B to those making audio for video, will find Genusis to be a valued addition to their toolbox, according to Pro-Sounds.

Genusis is available now for $24.95. A free 30-preset demo bank is available.

Humbucker Series vs Parallel Wiring: What's the Difference?

 If you've ever looked into modifying your guitar's wiring, you've probably come across the terms "series" and "parallel" wiring. Both options use both coils of a humbucker, but they produce very different tones. Humbucker in Series Series wiring is the standard configuration found in most humbuckers. The signal flows through one coil and then into the second coil before reaching the output.
