Sorry. 1st June (this page), 2nd June (OSC google sites page), or 1st July (this page)?

Just trying to help.

You have to go back in time and submit the track... Lol

Wow, I'm excited about this synth... LOOKS really good; can't wait to test it out tonight. Could be a recipe for a killer month, if it's CPU efficient & has decent bass to it. A shame I have to use Winblows for it, though.

Want any help porting to Mac, Ted?

Yes, a good choice for the challenge.
Does anybody know why it has this polish name?

Yeah! I used this synth a lot!

It's a beauty that's for sure

Ok, I'm running through the presets for Swierk --- this is gonna be fun!

Do we have any additional sound-or-preset files for this one (like we did for VOPM, and which I didn't discover until after I had submitted my track).

Yeah, Andy, some really nice additional presets here: http://www.saltline.co.uk/presets.html

Ok, thanks! Now for my noobie question: What is the correct method to use those additional presets? (I don't want to overwrite the existing 128 presets or make any other noobie errors.)
Thanks again!

bjporter · Post by **bjporter** » Mon Jun 02, 2014 6:18 pm

Thanks Animehaus...

Guys, I wanted to add something. This months challenge is special in that this synth is made by a fellow OSCer (Saltine), and a lot of the demos on his site are by OSCers (Kraftraum, Animehaus).

So we come full circle

I'm really looking forward to hearing the results, I thought maybe I should share an image of ADHDidi. Free to all participants.

animehaus · Post by **animehaus** » Mon Jun 02, 2014 6:46 pm

And BJ, don't forget that Kraftraum also created some amazing extra presets.

Yep, it's really going to be a special OSC edition: this synth is awesome.

@sizemore0409 - You simply have to load the FXP/FXB files, the original presets won't be deleted from the synth DLL, don't worry.

GUI looks cool. I use their delay product Lisc-Delay on and off. Don't remember if I tried this synth before, may be I will this month.
