YES! I read the "one request per thread" post - this IS one request. MORE!

SynthMaker looked cool - I got it down and had a play (demo version), and started plugging in goodies. After seeing the multiple requests for help on PWM, and seeing the tips and suggestions eventually ending up in high powered maths and Greek symbols I thought - 'AH HA! This is a programmers tool!". Absolute shortage of complex prefabs and high level modules to play with. Instant joy will get this product taken up way faster than extending the assembler support : ) YES - low level programming interfaces are powerful and essential for a truly expandable system, but some joy up front would be nice as well.

I've used toolkits like this before, (Reactor, Creamware Modular, and synthedit) and SynthMaker just doesn't come close to the "Maker" bit of it's name. It needs WAY WAY WAY more pre-made units like oscillators, filters, env generators so you actually CAN "make" a synth, rather than "write" one.

What sort of modules/prefabs would be totally cool? - Check this.

http://www.modularsynth.co.uk/modules.html and http://www.native-instruments.com/filea ... ual_EN.pdf should be a nice place to start.

About 25% of your first link SM already ships with, & another 40% you can find on the WIKI & forums, or can build quickly yourself. But you're right SM doesn't has as many primitives as SE does.

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    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.

    Only the developer reads reports. The person isn’t told who reported them.
