Tsugi has published a major update to their flagship procedural sound design tool.
GameSynth 2022 offers many specialized synthesizers to generate all the sound effects needed in games and animations: impacts, whooshes, footsteps, engines, particle-based sounds, environmental sounds, voice effects and more. It also provides a patching environment to build sound effects synthesizers by connecting 130+ modules together.
This new version is bigger, faster, and smarter:
- Bigger:
- 1000+ sound models in all styles in the repository.
- 15 new modules in the patching environment: Horn, Parametric, Stutter, Wavefolder, Drifter etc.

- Import of SVG files and new scripting functions in the Sketch Pad.
- New audio exporters (GameMaker Studio, Audacity).
- New animation curve importers (GameMaker Studio, Live2D).
- Faster:
- New module selector to quickly add modules by type, name, status etc.
- Partial playback to instantly check audio signals going through wires.
- New wire context menu to speed up patching.
- Snap wiring and automatic modules reconnection.
- Automatic .wav rendering for different meta-parameter values.
- Updated automatic export to game middleware (Wwise, FMOD, ...).
- Smarter:
- Perceptual feature map to find similar sound models.
- Audio analysis to find sound models close to wave file.
- Patch search based on used modules.
