ExpDigital has released GFlux, a multi-filter plug-in with extensive modulation capabilities. The core of GFlux is the concept of the 'flow'. Each flow represents a different filter layout, controlling which filters feed to others. The flows range from simple 8 pole filters right through to complex serial / parallel networks. These flows cover almost all the possibilities for routing and combined with the separate level control for each filter state you can create very complex filter responses.

Features:

* 4 Filters.
* 5 Simultaneous Filter Types.
* 6 Modulators.
* 5 Modulation Types.
* 18 Filter routing configurations.
* 11 Distortions.
* Full MIDI Control.

GFlux is available as a VST effect plug-in for Mac OS X (Universal Binary) and it costs $125 . Demo versions are available. An Audio Unit version is in development.
