Hi @All

Notes: under Windows 11, for a better stability of Cubase 12 and probably upper, I have excluded the VST3 folder and Cubase12.exe from the indexing of files (you can also stop the service) and the real-time analysis of anti-viruses when I create my music :/, because that should disturb the loading of fat sessions.
Pfff, before I worked on windows 10 but without to be connected on the web to avoid boring windows updates and AV to keep an audio system a minimum stable but... Now I understand why I did that, grrrr, so as I done very fat Cubase sessions with loading of external files and big automations, so Cubase 12 is not a secure DAW with AV and perhaps some others windows services.
I don't understand why Steinberg cannot do a modern DAW which loads all before to connect the ASIO audio stream, raaah ^^, no all is loaded step by step with the ASIO which is running in same time... :dog:


01/06/2025 - Updates of plugins Kx PolyM CSE, Kx PolyMod, Kx Modulad, Kx Synth x16 and X16
SE 1.4709 and SE 1.5612(X16)
-Filter MgL* from SE Modular ME added (Kx PolyMod, Kx PolyM CSE, Kx Modulad).
Fixed bugs:
Plugins with X16 sequencer
- The portamento value of the MidiToCV of sequencer set to 0 to avoid false values when the notes are recorded.
Kx PolyM CSE
- The outputs mute during initialisation was not activated (3.14 internal patch error).

Plugins using the X16 sequencer:
- Removed compatibility with the older x16 files 1.0 (2010) to simplify the loading code.

Plugins built with SE 1.4709, version x.20:
- Use of _wfsopen and version number updated to x.20 to uniformise all plugins built with SE 1.4709.
Kx PolyM CSE:
Fixed bugs:
- New initialisation setting (6 sec with the sequencer on).
- Wrong Midi notes played after initialisation (3.14 bug).

Plugins built with SE 1.5.628:
Fixed bugs:
- Fix plugin not recalling MIDI Automation.
SE Modular ME 2.17:
- Bug with polyphonic mode with the VCF2 when the VCF1 is selected on its input and the KORG filter is used.

Cheers

01/10/2025:
2 new tracks (WMA PRO 24 bit/48k) - Album: Danse avec moi

- The Witch is not dead yet, Cubase 96k, 19 min 37 sec.
This video is just a support for a feminist text for french people included inside the video to avoid the search engines.

- Trans Loving, Cubase 96k, 35 min 30 sec.
Based on the X16 sequencer which controls with its midi out a SE Modular. A fat automation controls the X16 and another one for the SE Modular ME, so with only two tracks of 16 notes I can create a reach sequence.
Trans Loving is a title to say a big thanks to the people who like transgender women in this crappy world ^^.

31/10/2025: Plugins using the SoundFont player (SF2)
Fixed bugs:
SF2 sample player
-Now it supports independent loop points for stereo samples.
-A crossfade has been added to the end of the loop to prevent clicks if the loop end point is too close to the end of the sample data (interpolation related bug).

Post

2025/12/14: Plugins built with SE 1.4709, version x.22
- New code of delay module: shared lookup tables not used (fx are inside containers without Midi2CV) and the buffer is filled before its pointer increment to be sure to fill the first data 0 (possible audio clicks on important and fast modulations).
Plugin Kx PolyM CSE
Fixed bug:
- New initialisation setting (tested with sequencer x16 on), internal patch rewritten (Midi and timing), tested with lot of complex sessions of Cubase 12 with FX using jBridge on last Win 11 (the best crash test ^^).

Post

2025/12/28 Plugins built with SE 1.5 and its SDK C++
- Update with the last version of SynthEdit (1.5658).

Note: there are 230 presets now in the SE Modular ME zip. :phones:

Happy New Year to all :hug: except all those who want to destroy democracies :borg: :D :smack: :hihi:

26/02/15: Update of SE plugins and new track
SE Modular ME and SE Polymod KX:
- Choice between white or pink noise added.
- Output limiter can be set to 0dB or to +6dB.
Fixed bug:
- Random quiet plugin outputs with a midi track done with the x16 sequencer.

New track (WMA PRO 24 bit/48k) - Album: Darkness Women Army
- The Witches protect you in the game, Cubase 96k, 21 min.
This track is the continuity of "Be one of darkness women" (KS Dream 2020) with a lot sequences based on pulse waveforms and nice leads.

2026/03/19: Update of SE Modular ME (2.20)
- Envelope segment curves added.
Fixed bug:
- Error in the list of the selector of the global curve of ADSR envelopes (Lin=Exp, etc...).

I updated also the SE PolyMod KX (3.05)
Fixed bug:
- Error in the list of the selector of the global curve of ADSR envelopes (Lin=Exp, etc...).

I find these plugins very interesting and quite complex — I used them on Windows a few years ago. It’s great to see that there are still active improvements being made.

I’m currently looking for complex synthesizers that can compete with hardware synths or ones like Serum, Arturia, or modular synths, but there aren’t many options for Linux apart from fully modular systems like VCV or Cardinal. Semi-modular Synth would be great in our collections.

Therefore, I have a cautious question:
  • Would it be possible to make these plugins available as open source on GitHub, so that more people could help update and accelerate the development?
  • And would a Linux port also be possible?

Hi

This synth is open source but only if you use Synthedit to export it in VST3.
Jeff implemented the Juce export.
All modules sem I did are shared in the zip but the sources of sem of SE are available in the SDK3 of SE.
Following his users requests, the Jeff's choice to be compatible with Apple are done since more 10 years, so no Linux development is not in the Jeff's project about SE.
Anyway SE community is not really an open community, Jeff works alone to share his sources, we cannot change this rule ^^.

As I'm Windows user, I improve this modular synth step by step, recently I added envelop curves to do good analogue Sim.

As I already said, since 2005, all my Synths are for users who know a minimum the practice of modular or semi modular classic analogue synths using voltage controls (one volt per octave).

Why this synth seems to be complex.
This synth is particular, it is directly linked to my experience of use modular structure in virtual context.
So there is on the GUI : a matrix with mini knobs, selectors, mini knobs for secondary parameters, help tip on each parameter, more 80 patch points with no limits of connections with mini knobs to adjust the signal, so you can work without patching or use the patch points as you like.
This synth is aliasing free, stereo and polyphonic up to 6 voices and it can use oversampling up to 192k, so it is useful to quickly reproduce any synths like Moog or CS, there is more 40 filters inside.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

ah, synthedit. once i worked with it.
juce itself can export linux compatible vst3 just as an option.
anyways, linux seems not in a focus but maybe jeff switch his mind and try to implement linux compatible exports.
about complexity, i just appreciated it. i would like to have such plugins for linix.

2026/04/21: Update of SE Modular ME (2.22) and update x.23
- x.23: check of waveforms data just after loading.
SE Modular ME:
Fixed bugs:
- SE 1.5664 fixes some bugs about patch points even if I did not see them.
Kx PolyM CSE:
Fixed bug:
- Limits of mini sliders (10 <> sub matrix) of sequencer matrix set to 0 to 10 instead of -5 to 5.

Edit 04/24 : I build new 2.22 version with SE 1.5.664 which improves plugins initialisation with presets using Edit 24/04 : I build new 2.22 version with SE 1.5.664 which improves plugins initialisation with presets using connected patch points.

New track (WMA PRO 24 bit/48k) - Album : Darkness Women Army
- Le champ de bataille de mes sentiments, Cubase 96k, 33 min.
Improvisations based on rather acoustic sounds.

100% SE Plugins as usual made with love ^^.
Second track of last album : Darkness Women Army.
Its title is The battlefield of my feelings.
Le champ de bataille de mes sentiments in French.
A very nice track based on improvisations with acoustic patches, so no drums, no speed like the other track of this album, 33 min so in my track there is different sequences.
