Are you actually aware that NI has a product called SWAY, too? Hope there are no legal problems with you choosing the same name for your synth.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't know that. When I started the project I searched for the name and this did not exist back then. Really unfortunate, but I'll have to think of a new name.

Yep, gets my vote

It's very refreshing to see so many people excited about a new instrument that is not an emulation of yet another analog synth.

I don't have time to beta test it but am looking forward to trying the demo if there is one available at the time of release.

Just call it "shui" which is the Chinese (Mandarin) word/character for water "水"

Most Westerners know it from the term Feng Shui which means "Wind Water" and those principles for interior design

It's pronounced "Schway"

SY-onara

I suggest "SUAI" (in japanese?!?) which someone told me was the nickname used by the developing team for the final SY-77.

Oh that's a good one! I love it.

SWAY - a synth modeled after the Yamaha SY77
