A semi-modular CLAP and VST3 synthesizer and FX plugin. This is basically InfernalSynth's (https://www.kvraudio.com/product/infernalsynth-by-sjoerdvankreel) big brother.
See the github page https://github.com/sjoerdvankreel/firefly-synth/ for details, system requirements and downloads.

All demo material: https://github.com/sjoerdvankreel/firefly-synth/tree/main/demos. This includes test files for supported hosts as well demo songs uploaded to KVR. Some Reaper, some Bitwig, some FLStudio, some Renoise. If there's a sound you want from any of the demo tracks and it's not a preset, it should at least be over here.

Much like the previous synth this one is a bit heavy on resources, however this one is better optimized, making it much more usable. It comes with a ton of options including the ability to stack filters and waveshapers which makes this an interesting tool. It also features AM, FM, additive, and physical modelling all in one.
The only thing I like about InfernalSynth more then this one is the orange and teal UI, which I really liked, however I still very much so like the one firefly features, as it is weirdly nostalgic.

I like how you keep stressing "stack filters and shapers". Indeed, like infernal, one of the design decisions from the get-go was to allow filter->distort->filter or distort->filter->distort or distort->distort->filter->distort->filter or anything you can come up with through the mod matrix. It's how most of the presets are done, too. Thanks again for the review.
