During the last semester, a group of students of Technische Universität Berlin created this little gem:
http://the-synister.github.io/

Supports AU, VST and runs as standalone

Thanks for this. Looks interesting.

FYI the download link doesn't show up on my Android devices, but works OK on Windows.

Yes, iOS and Android are not supported yet. We might address that in a follow-up student project

I was referring to the download link, not the synth itself. I often use an Android tablet to download things, before transferring them to my music computer. It's not possible to do this on your website. Will check out Synister later today (after I get my old lappy out of storage to d/l).
Thanks again.

Is this 64bit or 32bit vst? Also which version of vst, 2 or 3?

core · Post by **core** » Fri Mar 18, 2016 4:06 pm

32 & 64bit, VST2

Had a quick go with the standalone version, nice stuff

Wow, iOS/Android support would be amazing. Loving the synth, by the way!

Here's another demo vid, in addition to core's excellent one above.

Nice, very logical and clean design.

Is the routing (osc1 + osc2 + osc2) -> filter1 -> filter2 -> FX fixed?

Mahal · Post by **Mahal** » Fri Mar 18, 2016 9:23 pm

Thanks!

Yes, the routing is currently fixed.

oh, its not a bug. its an accessibility issue. it drives me nuts on the korg ms20 gui and
will likely do the same on this synth. i would have made the gui larger, the controls a bit smaller
and place everything on one page.

Just a heads up. You guys have parts of the VST SDK checked into your repository. Redistribution of the SDK is forbidden. You should probably remove it. Looks like it has been there since the initial commit. Time for some filter-branch magic.

is windowsXP SP3 x32 supported?
