A synth with dedicated pre-routed drift?? I'm so down~

Lith has exceptional modulation capabilities I've always loved

There are abundant routing and curvature possibilities.

The features Lith packs into that real estate make it a masterpiece for creative flow.

Who this, new synth

The sound of the plugin sizzles, most factory presets sizzle, I don’t understand.

Try to set the quality from 1/2 (default of Init patch) to x1 or more ...

Anyone Techno? My first little sessions with Lith: https://soundcloud.com/p-e-t-e-r-h/osc- ... king_sucks

It seems to be a capable synth. I somehow find my way around. The modulation system is special ... which needs a bit of learning curve. On some occasions I went to use Bitwig modulators instead of spending more minutes fiddling in the synth ... anyway the draft of my track seems to already go into a good direction. As this has only been mixed with headphones it surely needs a good deal of mixing on real speakers ... hopefully it's not to bad on your speakers.

The synth is quite resource cpu demanding. I already ran into some crackle situations ... without knowing exactly whether it has an effect I went through all patches and switched of the modules the particular patch doesn't use. For example if your patch does not use LFO2 you can easily switch it off. After doing so I had the impression CPU demand was a little less ... can sbdy confirm this?

Yeah, there's a reason for why this one ended up free, hehe, but it's interesting. Ambitious concept with all the modulation adjustment options. No wonder it's a bit tough on the CPU. Still interesting thus far.

Ha ha ha... yes ... I've actually forgot about it but I had the strange dejavu feeling "somehow, this is familiar but I don't know why".

That's what I thought, too! Don't know if it's the same, is it?

Same same but different

You can check the screenshot of the synth on the #129 page and compare to the curent version. It's still Lith but an updated version.
