Heres a synth I've been working on that i thought would be best released into the wild before it gathers dust on my hard drive..

I've been using the Galbanum Architecture Waveforms for a few months but always felt limited by the synths and samplers i had..so i decided to build a synth that just runs on samples.

The top 4 wave player / env sections are the oscillators. The next two are LFO's. Then the 4 volume controls are for each of the oscillators and the 4 A <-> B controls set how much of each oscillator goes to each filter at the bottom.

There are a couple of handy modules in there that have been adapted from the built in SM ones (or from the forum)

For the wave players you can load a sample and then use the < and > buttons to browse through the other wav files in the same directory. They also work with the preset manager so when you load a preset you can still browse through the original directory.

Also I added an 'amount' modifier section to the modulation matrix so you can setup much more interesting modulation routings. You can drag on the number to change it and also use Shift / Ctrl / Shit + Ctrl to control the speed of the change.

its not finished yet, there are various things i want to sort out...but i just dont have time to work on it so its best to set it free...

i would be really interested to see if anyone does anything with it...and also any suggestions of how to optimize the schematic, how to fix the bugs etc..

oh..before i forget..here's the osm

and i have to say that those graphical envelopes are brilliant. big up sambean and shifrin for some amazing work on those.

nice one mdk 😉

i like the folder scroll for the samples, saves having to have them loaded in memory. 🙂

cheers 😉
