Solid State Logic's Duende rackmount workstation has a new complement in the form of a drum-processing plug-in called Drumstrip (Mac Intel/Win; price TBA).

The first in a series of plug-ins for Duende, Drumstrip packages five audio-processing tools that can be arranged in any order. Additional features include a transient shaper, a dedicated drum gate, high- and low-frequency enhancers, and SSL's Listen Mic Compressor with an additional bypass function.

Drumstrip will be available for sale only through the SSL Web Site.
