SynthMaster 3 Official Thread: SynthMaster 3/Player v3.4.9 Rev 17271 update

What about the Grain OSC?
Any idea when it will come?

I finally started working on the granular oscillator, really excited about that, I am hoping to release it 1st week of August

It's gonna be a unique granular oscillator with "oscillator unison" feature borrowed from basic/wavetable/VA oscillators:

1. There will be up to 8 voices
2. Each voice can have up to 32 grains. It is possible to limit the number of grains per voice to keep CPU utilization under control.
3. For each voice, we have a separate drift LFO (as in the basic/wavetable/VA oscillators), and we have separate "spread" parameters, so that grain parameters (volume, pan, detune, length, etc) are spread across voices.

The grain oscillator uses a multi-sample as its source, which can be edited with the multi-sample editor.

Here are screenshots from the design:

How do I know which presets are working? Most presets just give me a sine wave.

Awesome synth by the way!

Only the ones that display "Missing waveforms" (SM1/SM2) would default to sine.

Could you send me names of some presets that give that error?

when i try to add my own preset as a new layer i get this error message... 'preset bank is not installed'
those presets were made in Synthmaster 2
i'd like to layer my own presets together, but it doesn't work, am i doing something wrong?

Since I installed Synthmaster 3, Synthmaster 2 does not start up (AU, Logic Pro). What could be the issue?

Is it crashing, or freezing ?

You used the same email address for upgrading to SynthMaster 3, right ?

I used the same email address.

It does not fully load, the button stays half green and the window of the synth does not open.

I sent email to support, I hope the issue can be resolved quickly. Thanks!

I am going to recommend a clean installation:

1. Delete /Users/Shared/SynthMaster
2. Delete Documents/SynthMaster (backup your presets if necessary)
3. Delete /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/SynthMaster2...
4. Delete /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/SynthMaster2...
5. Delete /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/SynthMaster2...
6. Delete /Library/Application Support/KV331 Audio/SynthMaster
7. Reinstall SynthMaster 2.9.17 (full setup, not update)
8. Run your DAW

Granular oscillator is going to be awesome! Note I am getting an immediate crash trying to load SM3 in Renoise (VST3 - latest Renoise version 3.44). Earlier beta version/s seemed to be working. SM2 and SM One are both working.
