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.

First you tell SonarWorks’ software, called True-Fi, which headphones you’re using; 138 models are supported, at the time of writing.
