Ministry Of Rock 2 was put together with one goal in mind: to create a virtual (software) instrument capable of producing sounds that could actually produce a hit record or film score without any live drum, bass, or guitar overdubs. The articulations and programming were all reverse engineered from actual performances. The 57 gigabyte collection features LIVE technology which makes multi-sampled drums sound like a live performance.

Ministry Of Rock 2 will be available on 1.11.11 for $395 MSRP.

While built upon the same basic concept as PSP Nitro, PSP N2O, with its new modules and extended modulation features, explores completely new sonic areas. The plug-in engine has been rewritten and redesigned from scratch in order to improve the sound and take full advantage of the optimizations offered by modern CPUs.

Features:

- 4 sound processing operators at a time
- 4 modulators at a time; the list includes: LFO, envelope detector, ADSR step sequencer
- 8 assignable knobs with quick MIDI learn option
- built-in limiter that uses algorithms from our extremely well regarded PSP Xenon hi-definition mastering limiter
- sidechain (key) input
- 192 factory presets
