SyndtSphere - Sound Surfer Synthesizer

This synth is free (if you make a Klevgrand account), which is a very compelling price indeed.

The idea behind this synth is simple, and I really love it! The idea is all your presets are inside a 360 rotating sphere, and you rotate that sphere to blend and mix different presets together. You can visually see how the presets are related to each other (ie: what % of each signal is being mixed), and the simple interface is instantly understandable and functional.

I give this 3 stars because ultimately many of the preset sounds are fairly similar, which doesnt quite create the desired effect -- or does not create a STRONG enough morphing transition between different sounds. Its hard to tell where all the presets are (its an endless sphere lol), and the only mixing options between presets are limited to what is currently visible inside the sphere. So, like 4-6, depending. Most of these sounds actually sound like the same preset or the same oscillator with "morphing" happening between parameters on that same sound.

This could be SO MUCH better, in my opinion, with more oscillators and sound sources so that the morphing is more effective. I love the idea of rotating the knob and mixing presets, but it would be great to be able to create my own mix of presets to morph into one another. If Klevgrand updates this, Im sure some of those things could be possible.
