Sensomusic has updated Usine to version 5.50 and announced a new product called Easine, which is a simplified version of Usine, especially designed for installations and netbook computers. Sensomusic is currently offering a €30 discount on Usine Pro (€90 instead of €120).
Usine v5.50 includes a new technology called "poly": All sub-patches can now be duplicated according to a poly parameter. For example, you can build a single sample player and decide to duplicate it 8 times to obtain 8 independents sample players with their own interface. This new version also includes many improvements to the interface, the audio engine and new modules.

- [patching] polyphony for sub-patches.
