this is the other thing i have been fooling around with, i must admit i am still learning when it comes to creating ones own components so i use a lot of the pre-made stuff and try and think about the structure and yes i spend a lot of time on the GUI...

give special thanks to Exonerate for the rotary OSC, he has helped me a lot, as i said about my latest toy, give it a whirl, it is a little CPU heavy, if any body has any suggestions...

it's called Orange.01

I like the sound of the default patch; oddly ambient, kinda cheezy yet professional sounding. I expect to hear that sound off a downtempo track from some UK comp in a year.

I do have problems reading the synth's layout though. All the knobs look the same after a bit, & I'm not sure of the grouping & audio-path. Think of jumping in a car that is new for you; everything is mostly where you expect it, and like items are clearly grouped together. You shouldn't clone other synths, but there is a reason that Linux GUIs seem somewhat similar to Windows or Mac. I kinda get your synth now, but I had to study it (inside & out) for a few minutes. Not all users will get a chance to look inisde.

    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.
