Panzertank PM4
Panzertank PM4 is a virtual phase modulation synth very much like the famous FM synthesizers. It has four sinus operators (oscillators) with individual APDSR envelopes, detune and velocity sensitivity. There are six schemes or algorithms to construct the sound.
Made with SynthEdit

It is July 2008 and this lady from long ago is still residing in my "Go-to" section. What can i say, this thing is so beautifully emotional I barely believe how good it is for its age.

Hard, gritty, filthy, lush, sexy, the sound creation possibillities are boundless. It is better suited towards industrial noise type of sounds but equally on foot making 'different' bass and lead sounds. The envelope section on this beauty is not your everyday adsr fare but with added extra controls for sound mangling joy. The oscillators (3) have a wide range of octaves, detune, and tone controls to build with and different inner FM structures to choose as a basis for your sound design.

Not many presets to start with but this synth goes far beyond what the original patches show.

Like the dreaded panzers in the second great war, this thing is tough, noisy, and bound to frighten you with its presence and sound possibilities.

Customer support is nill as the creators personal life had him leave shortly after his advent into vstidom and now his creations have gained a cult status. And though they are old, they are as stable as can be on MOST modern PCs.

Nasty. That's the only word I can think of to describe this SynthEdit creation. Wait, here's another: weird. And another: wicked.

This is one of those FM synths that somehow manages to sound like an industrial plant gone haywire. For hard-edged techno, industrial, IDM, etc., this would be a must-have synth. Fortunately, the price is right (it's free)!

If you're looking for lush, cool DX7-style crystal or bell sounds, lush EP, or punchy FM bass, keep looking. This synth's forte is aggressive, wild sounds that you won't find anywhere else.

probally one of my favorite synth edit creations and maybe one of the best FM like VSti's. i have used this in many songs and i own FM7! its not very full sounding but it can still stand with synths that cost money. this is very stable for a synth edit creation.

PM4 was used in cubase 5.0

P4@1.5GHz with 512Mb rambus

and a MOTU 828

Product: Morpheus
Developer: Land of Cockaigne
Type: FM Sampler
Price: Free
OS&Formats: WindowsVST
Morpheus is a velocity sensitive FM sampler with 2-pole multimode filter.You can use any individual wave sample as modulator and other one as carrier signal. It's concept is very simple but it can produce a wide range of quite unusual dark ambient, noise or industrial atmospheric sounds in the spirit of David Lynch's Eraserhead. When wide stereo sample is used as a carrier (for example pad with lots of reverb) one can achieve interesting stereo textures. These sounds beg for huge delays and reverbs.... [more]

Product: Phibes
Developer: Land of Cockaigne
Type: Organ
Price: Free
OS&Formats: WindowsVST
Phibes electric organ tries to capture the sound of those sweet sixties organs. It is definitely no Hammond B3 or Vox Continental but rather some obscure and cheap east-european imitation of them. It has 9 drawbars with five different tones and, independent vibrato, tremolo and rotator effects and staccato mode. Even though Phibes organ is quite simple instrument, it is very CPU-intensive with over ten oscillators and filters.... [more]

Quantum 64 is a harsh and aliased digital synth with single DCO and multimode filter. It is inspired by Commodore 64's SID sound chip but it definitely is no emulation. The two special ingredients that make the soul of Quantum 64 are the arpeggiator and the degrader/quantiser unit.... [more]
