Synthedit has a huge potential. If you accept all its storic bugs and limitations, you can do unbelievable things with it.

The only major drawback with it is the scarce support you get from its author. Despite being a commercial product (very honest price and policy without burdens I must say), the author always manifested little to no intentions to fix well known bugs or to introduce important missing features which have been reported and requested since its infancy; rather, he seems more motivated to pursuit his personal goals, ignoring completely users' bug reports and requests. Also, more than often he fails to interact properly, both in PM and in the support newsgroup, making users' lives a real nightmare and often challenging their patience badly causing frustration.

Therefore, if you are gifted with the patience of a saint, better if you are also a coder, Synthedit will be a gold mine for you. Otherwise, you should rather look elsewhere.

So, 5 stars for its potential, 0 for user support.

SynthEdit puts meaning into my life!

The more you learn about SynthEdit the deeper you can dive. There's no end to what SE is capable of.

Thank you, Jeff.

I'd love to give this 10 stars out of 5 if I could.

It's amazing. And most of the cool free synths I like are made with it.

There's a little bit of a learning curve, but once you figure it out, you're golden.

I recommend to start, you look at the YouTube tuts.

Keep up the good work and Thank you for your service, Jef.

If I sample say an old sound module, could I then create a VST version with synthedit using the WAV files?

and also could I create my own GUI from a photo edited in Photoshop? I've registered on the synthedit page, but it won't allow me to ask questions for some mad reason! Any help would be gratefully received.

Good luck with that! You could, but then that company's lawyers would shut you down really good. Look up Grok 02SM, and you'll understand. This synth where up on the Internet for less than a month, most likely just a week or so until Korg's lawyers shut down that project.Christof Bircher got a cease and desist letter that litterally forced his hands to remove it on his own, or he would have to fork out a huge bill for a lawyer, that would cost him even more money. It doesn't matter how good you think your plugin is. Infringement is always infringement..

Hi, .

it understand where you are coming from, but this would be just a personal thing. I wouldn't be interested in selling it. I haven't used this program before & I'm very interested in doing so as I think it would benefit me greatly, but there seems to be no support on the website nor is there anything on YouTube to help with using samples. If I wanted to create a synth, there are plenty of tutorials.

Well... Just make some small tweaks to those sounds and avoid names like Dnalor o Ahamay. Just put those multisamples in something like a soundfont and create your own interface based on anything but a photo of that piece of hardware. The more popular it became, the more exposure to law conflicts.

Hello, thanks for the help. So are you saying I have to use sound fonts to create the synth and not the WAV files? Pardon my ignorance, but I'm trying to get my head around it! If there was a complete manual I could get, that would be awesome!:-)

about of use of old synths and samples from them. I have hear, it is possible to offer VST legal from old soundmodule, when there is no copyright notice that forbid to use the sounds in a Synthesizer VST for this soundmodule attach on buy.

and on old sound modules before VST area no such copyright information was add. So you have the rights to use the sounds everywhere. a later change for old is not possible, because your rights that you can do with something you buy before connot reduce later. this sound logic to me.

I also like know, if there come a final version of 64-bit synthedit. that synthedit 64-bit only support VST3 is a limit, currently, but i guess sooner or later all support VST 3 in 64-bit.
