Wave Manuel - FREE stereophonic waveshaping synth

Hi Pauli - just chiming in to say that I've really enjoyed using WM this month for the OSC. It's capable of a really wide range of decent sounds. Great stuff. Pretty stable here too, Win10/Reaper.

An FR to add to the other requests. Mouse Wheel control on all gui elements, it's a right pain in the hoop when setting FM ratios via menus especially

Mousewheel control will be implemented! Thanks for the tip.

I've been working on UI update with a pro designer friend. The new FM ratio selector is totally different and there will be no more drop down menus.

Great to hear, thanks for the update!

I received my Linnstrument 128 last weekend. I've been trying out Surge's "Linnstrument MPE" patches, this is exciting technology! I'll be fixing the pitch bend issue first and then look how to implement assigning MPE Pressure and MPE Timbre in WM.

I made a little instrument layer in Bitwig to overcome the pitch bend bug and the missing MPE. its layed out for 7 voices, its a bit of a hassle to change the sounds now, but if you modify a preset, simply save it as Bitwig preset and load it into each of the seven instances.
You need to use the generic keyboard script instead of the official LinnStrument script, and set your pitch bend range in the LinnStrument to 12 and limit to channels 2-8...
In Bitwig in the track inspector Midi channel has to be set to same...

If pitch bend would listen to all channels, its much easier. You place it into an instrument selector set it to free-robin and duplicate your instances. To tweak, you simply delete all but one instance, then tweak, and after that duplicate the tweaked instance again. No need to switch to a generic script and limit the channels...

In case you only got the 8-Track version of Bitwig (its free for you) it should still work, as you need 8 instances, Bitwig switches into demo mode (no saving) but still play. If you modify it to two instances, it reverts to your licensed 8-track... At least I think it works like that...

Any update on making it work on Mac M1? I love how this sounds; I can get sounds that I can't easily get elsewhere. It works for a few minutes, then crashes, especially after doing a pitch bend.

UPDATE: I updated to the latest version, and that fixes the crashing. However, I still can't save presets, either in the VST or stand-alone version. I don't see any option to do that.
