S.F.U.M.
A Riotous noisemaker, using the host sync feature to scan through a series of 8 amplitude levels and sweep amounts and then mangling the synths waveforms using the Twist control. The Glide Control evens out the pitch changes and the Smooth control takes some of the upper harmonics off. This synth is very much one for the experimenters out there.
Made with SynthEdit

this is a very cool, and very weird vsti.

the controls are very straight forward and its very stable. however, since it is such an odd ball synth...tonally, you may not get what you expect...and thats the fun part. :-)

if the idea of experimental sounds moving in rhythms appeals to you at all then download this sucker now. you wont regret it.

btw, the low marks on the docs are only because there are none...do not hold this against the synth.

i use this in almost all of my songs. its an odd little critter but i like it.

Gui- its blue. :) its laid out very well i did not find it confusing at all.


Sound-hrmm well i use this synth for bleepy sequences (night rider stuff) my only complaint with the sound is the filter. the comb filter is ok but at times it just sounds like a bit crusher. Mr. krakli was kind enuff to give me a modified version with a switchable filter. comb or LP. its deffiantly a step in the right direction.


Features-this synth is for knob fiddlers! move everything and youll see all the features.

DOcs- mm realy dont need any. just turn knobs.


Presets- they are pretty good they all needed tweaking but look out for the ones i made in the update.

CS-very good! maybe the best i have dealt with.

VFtM__YES!!!!!!!


Stability- one of the most Stable SE creatures i have encountered.

Product: Cygnus
Developer: Krakli
Type: Synth (Unclassified)
Price: Free
OS: Windows
Formats: VST
Developed as a collaboration between Krakli Software and sound designer Tim Conrardy, Cygnus is a "space synth" in both looks and tones. 3 distinctly different tonal sources are mixed in stereo through various sound modulators. The quality of the sound is further affected by 3 sequencer rows which can affect note pitch or act as configurable LFOs. The GUI is designed to be anything but conventional but the inclusion of switchable labels makes everything a little bit more manageable for those that like to know what they are tweaking....

Dedicated to the much loved mono-synths of the 1970's this softsynth faithfully captures the retro sounds and simplified interface of the synths of that period. Sounds are easy to program and change 'on the fly' with the easy to control front panel, but with a filter controller that begs to be tweaked this synth will find favour with musicians of all ages and abilities....
