Saltline has released Ni - a free, single oscillator, 16-step sequencer synthesizer VST instrument for Windows.

Ni's oscillator features 7 selectable waveforms, octave up and down switching, fine tune and phase modulation controls. The sound is then passed through a LP, HP, BP or BR self oscillating filter. The step sequencer features step start and end positions, a direction selector and step rate parameters. The filter cutoff can also be controlled by an identical independent step sequencer. The synth also has a multi routable, sync to host, LFO.

Ni includes an effects section - the included delay and reverb modules pass through their own filters. The effect's filters can be controlled by a second LFO as can the delay rate and reverb size.

Ni is free and is available as a VST instrument plug-in for Windows.
