I’m building the next X-series synth, the X13. Same format, Mods and triggers, but a Re-design and re-build. This the “base” module. At the Moment it’s the Osc.

Later it will become the Seq, the Big 4 Mods, the Lfo , blah blah....... Seeing as this core module is so important, I’d figured it would be better to share it Now, and use the feedback I get from you guys now, while I’m at the very start of building. 2 main design changes- 1. One problem with the X series design is that when the triggers are active, your not really sure what control “is available” to play with. Now the trigger will just trig the main on/off btn, and the user has about 12 controls to play and experiment with. 2. Lots more room on the main interface, now there’s no need for Sample Mod + Morph sections. Bugs: No real bugs. Only problem I found is the Phase Mod. It’s not very musical. Sounds Very dirty when you increase the level. You could see it as a “interesting”effect, but I’m not sure about it. Got any ideas....let me know.

    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.
