Orion 7.5 released
The long awaited version 7.5 of Orion is available. It is a free update for all Orion Platinum 7 users.

Key changes include:
- New audio engine with support for multicore processors
- Improved Workflow
- Updated VST implementation to version 2.4
- New limiter effect, modelled after the famous 1176LN
- Auto-tracking EQs for easier mixing
- Extended arpeggiator with new options
- Creating presets for container multieffects is now possible
- Direct Export to MP3 and OGG formats
- Improved compatibility with Windows Vista

Orion PRO is discontinued with this release, however an affordable upgrade to V7.5 is available. Since there is only 1 Orion version now, the "Platinum" in the name was dropped. Orion 7.5 includes all Platinum features of course, and many more on top of that!
