So the deal for those buying Synthmaster for $10 during x-mas period just got sweeter.

It is gonna be free for those owning SynthMaster all, and $79 for newbies.

Ummm.. There is wavetables in SM? You can add pile of waves and morph between them?

As far as i know, no.

This thing is superb, and I get it for free.

Only problem: two oscillators.

I mean, even Sylenth1 has four oscillators.

Synthmaster 2 has a wavetable oscillator module since long time where you could create a wavetable from up to 16 different waveforms that create a morphable wavetable in real-time. While the wave index parameter has limited steps (127 selectable waveforms + some steps between two waves) when modulated with an envelope there seem to be very smooth interpolations.

GUI layout is basically exactly as HIVE

Was what i was thinking too. There are 2 subs, good. But, no global unison, as it seems, and the sub osc's don't have unison too, so, it will be a bit restrictive for some patches.

Looks nice, the gui layout is a mockup of hive, which is still cool

I guess the EDM crowd will still be happy. But yeah, restrictive. Seems a bit odd, because a lot of work seems to have gone into creating something very analog sounding. I'd imagine this sprang from development models for SynthMaster 3. If it just had a little tab for at least two layers, then it would be a more complete modern soft synth.

Anyway, going into the single page layout and workflow, is the perfect direction for KV331 Audio.

I think this is a bit different. Afaik Synthmaster One has predefined "typical" wavetable with a knob where you can walk thru the index. If understand this correctly, Bülent spoke also in the video that wavetable synthesis is something Synthmaster doesn't have right know.

You're correct

If you want four oscillators, you have Synthmaster. Synthmaster One is not limited at all, the oscillators and filters are great, and it's very versatile (although very straight and direct for the user)

Doesn't normal Synthmaster also have 2 oscillators? Various layers though.

2 layers, each one with two oscillators and two filters (therefore, four oscillators, like Sylenth and Spire). Sylenth also has an architecture with two layers, BTW. But while Sylenth and Spire "only" have two filters, Synthmaster has four (two in each layer)

Synthmaster One is like half of Synthmaster (although the oscillators have some new stuff, that will, presumably, be included in Sythmaster 3). It has "only" two oscillators (like the vast majority of synths, including Hive), but it has two filters.

Synthmaster One?
