reFX Vanguard Features

This isn’t just a remaster—it’s a rewrite, refinement, and polish.
A new, cleaner user interface. Ten new wavetables, two new filter types, a new delay type, a brand-new reverb, a new distortion effect, synchronized LFOs, and more.
Plus, 136 brand-new factory presets.
All Vanguard expansions previously sold on reFX are included free.
Expanded Library:
Three columns for easy navigation.
Color-coded tags, bookmarks, favorites, and a dedicated space for user presets.
Easily go back a step (or two, or three, or more) and continue browsing.
Quickly find what you’re looking for with instant previews, search as you type, filtering by categories and tags, and much more.
Improved Reverb:
The reverb in the original Vanguard sounded a bit tinny, but we’ve fixed that.
This is the same reverb as in NEXUS5 (RutaVerb), and it sounds just as amazing.
New Distortion Effect
We’ve added a brand new distortion effect behind the beefed-up reverb to make your sounds scream.
It’s so simple, yet so powerful.
Ten New Wavetables
Ten new wavetables open up new possibilities for Vanguard.
