I'm going to turn a nearly HGF forgotten gem of the past to Freeware.

1. very 1st Protoplasm Pro (recompiled - details see below), or,
2. Shuniji Pro (recompiled plus some changes - details see below), or
3. LaserBlade (probably as is)

had been poll - results:



If feedback here is great, let's say over 120 votes and at least 5 pages of comments I'll put out two of the above.

This poll runs for 21 days. Anyway the 1st item will be made available when 90 votes have been reached - or shortly after that depending what the most voted item at that time is. ProtoPlasm is basically ready while Shuniji still needs some attention.

So it's up to you! spread the info and make others vote too

Please i think Shuniji Pro the best choice, would be a great Christmas present for all.

Thanks

Agreed. Shunji is awesome.

I voted for Laserblade,but shuniji is also nice

I voted for Shuniji... but I'd be happy with any of them!

I don't think I've heard of any of them as those were around before I got into vsti's. But I did make a selection: Shunji for me.

Thanks for the kindness of setting one of your vst's free!

Bump for Shuniji Pro...

Shuniji

Not knowing much about any of them I chose the first. A brief description of each one would be nice. Thanks for this kind offer HG

Since Protoplasm is the only one I've used, that's the one I voted for. Hey, beggers can't be choosers. Anything is great.

I own all three, but Protoplasm was my first love. I believe it's the oldest of those mentioned, and definitely has that unique character.

Protoplasm Pro Features:

•three digital PCM-wave oscillators powered by 150 different waveforms (96 in free version)
•each oscillator's level can be modulated by different sources
•adopted Transition System with 3 modes
•new: Super Modulation for osc. and both filters
•new: Filter-FM for both filters with adjustable sources from all osc.
•new: Shape function for S&H seed source
•one LP filter (24db Lowpass) with adjustable Boost and ADSR EG
•one HP filter (12db Hipass) with adjustable Boost and ADSR EG
•two shapeable LFO with patternlike waveforms (bpm-synced)
•one shapeable standard LFO (bpm-synced)
•one shapeable Sample & Hold with pattern (bpm-synced)
•each LFO and S&H provide an additional Mix-out for mixed LFO-shapes
•one ADSR EG for VCA
•adjustable level for direct, LP and HP output with separate pan each
•stereo-delay for PingPong effects (bpm-synced)
•User-Waves for oscillators via Wave files (back again) and Soundfontfiles (SF2) loadable (see manual for details and howto) - (in free version only SF2 for osc. 1)


Shuniji Pro features

•Two PCM-wave oscillators powered by 124 different waveforms, one with level modulation
•Rainbow Modulator for astonishing additional soundcolors
•One lowpassfilter (24db with resonance) + 4 direct and 2 indirect modulations
•Filter-FM with selectable oscillator
•Two ADSR envelope generators
•Three LFO, one Sample & Hold (S&H) and one contour generator (CG); all bpm-synced
•One LFO with complex waveforms and rate adjustable by knob
•Saturator
•Pan with modulation
•Bpm-synced Stereo-Delay with color adjustment and Time modulation
•8 voices (in Pro Version)
•3 Lazy Button


LaserBlade Features

•two digital PCM-wave oscillators powered by 170 different waveforms
•each oscillators with Harm+ knob for enhancing the upper harmonic structure
•XTorsion with selectable modulation source
•one filter (24db Lowpass w. resonance)
•Filter-FM feedable from both oscillators separately
•two ADSR-style envelope generators
•three LFO (one bpm-synced; one with 42 patternstyle waves, one with shapeable waves)
•Metallize section for more metallic timbres incl. two modulations
•bpm-synced Stereo-Delay

Shuniji Pro looks like it could be very cool, so that is my first selection. If I had a second choice it would Lazerblade Pro. I think that would be cool as well. Whatever the final outcome is, I will be there to download the winner. I am always looking for new tools to play with. If they happen to be free, so much the better.

To complete my collection HG synths: Altair4P, AlphatronP, Atonoise2, Avatar, Fortune#1,PCL-STS24, Percumat, ProClasX-WofII, ScapesWizard, ScWzP, SerenityP, TDM3P, UltraSwapP, X-Wof4P, Xwof6,Xwof-II. My vote for ProtoPlasm Pro.
