Sounds great, looks great, great job. Looking forward to the release. Any ETA?

Also, if it could open Sytrus patches would make it awesome, as there's a sizeable amount of high-quality patches everywhere.

Sytrus is a completely different synth with an entirely different set of features. You can open Sytrus patches in other DAWs using a VST version of Sytrus, or opening the FL Studio VSTi in another DAW and using Sytrus that way.

Thank you, I expect it will be released to the public sometime in September. But it could get delayed; I do not like to set deadlines as I will only release the plugin once I am happy with the quality.

I know, but IL stopped making VST installers available for their plugins. If one haven't bought it in the past when it was available to purchase as an independent VST, tough luck. Now you HAVE to use it through FL Studio, and I'm trying to wean myself off that DAW (mainly because developers refuse even to consider porting it to Linux or develop a good Wine wrapper).

I'm happy to announce that Apricot is now in public beta.

You can download it for free from https://nakst.itch.io/apricot.

It requires a CLAP host (such as Bitwig) or FL Studio (it runs with the native plugin format). Only Windows is currently supported, but Linux support is underway.

I'm really pleased with how this synth is turning out. I'm very excited for more people to try it out!

You’re making great stuff for us Bitwig users, thanks!

Congrats ! thanks for listened to me for the dark skin

well I tested it today..and there is the same problem than Fluctus... when you play with a master keyboard, all keys work exept one...the G2 key ..no sound .... in the Bitwig keys editor the G2 key works...it's only with a keyboard. Also I noticed some bugs with the arpegiator, doesn't play right when changing notes (bitwig, Win7)...

Nice sounding synth as is Integrate. The Sample Osc adds more sound design options.

It appears that a new .dat file is created when just auditioning a sample even if the sample is not used in a saved patch:

That's going eat up quite a bit of disk space if one auditions a lot of samples especially considering one sample can have more than one .dat file:

Maybe he can add a process to delete all of those once you close the plugin, or just make it so it doesn't create those DAT files in the first place.

This looks very interesting - it should be great for D50ish sounds (but with a much higher quality), right?

Does anyone know if it will run in Reaper?

It does.

By the way, it seems that the plugin installs several folders on the hard drive, but there is no uninstaller... If at some point I have to uninstall it, how should we proceed?

It does.

Does Reaper support Clap now? I couldn't find anything about in this year's changelogs...

The development version does. Search Google for reaper pre-release.

Added SFZ support: Apricot — Free Hybrid Synthesizer
