In addition to various small fixes, Vortex 1.1 has the following new features:

1. Brand new one-shots sample map by :

ANTONIO BLANCA (http://www.absoundscapes.com/)
RICHARD DEVINE (http://www.richard-devine.com)
JOSH HINDEN (http://www.twistedtools.com)

IGOR SHILOV (http://www.twistedtools.com)
TIMONKEY (http://www.myspace.com/timonkeymusic)

2. Double-click to reset parameter knobs to default value

Double-clicking on a parameter knob on the A-view resets the knob to the default value.

3.Bipolar Swing with scene memory
Click and drag the swing button in either direction to add alternate shuffle/ swing to your rhythms. The swing and swing is stored with the scene you’re working on.

4. Zero-Modulation Sequencing
Turn on zero-modulation sequencing by clicking the necessary Z buttons on the sequencer tabs. When on for a given sequencer, that sequencer will send zero-values for steps that are set to zero.

5. Randomization Exclude Buttons
The B-View now features randomization exclude buttons. This way you can choose which parameters/modulators you would like to be randomized. When cyan colored, that parameter will be randomized. When grey, it won’t be randomized. This is especially useful if you’d like to exclude parameters like volume and pan from being randomized.
