I've been off SynthMaker for about a year, and I don't remember this clearly. Does the exported plugins come with the fonts used, or do I have to provide them beside the plugin to get the look I have?

yes you have to provide the font/the user must have the right font installed to get the right look. here is my workaround: 🙂 you can add static labels( with the font you like ) in form of bitmaps to your OSM , for changing labels (readouts etc) you can make a PNG strip in knobman using the text primitive (with your fav font of course). this way you can use any font in your project and you don´t have to handle the font file with it. but it would indeed be nice if the used font would get saved with exported plugs/exes.... 😉

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
