Rhapsody

Reviewed By firebolt41 [all]

Version reviewed: 3.2.0 on Windows

Open strings is great inside the rhapsody sampler! I wish there were more community libraries for it - but the engine itself seems well implemented.

ZL Equalizer 2

Version reviewed: 3.2.0 on Windows

Impressive. Zero "breaking" complaints from me. My only real critique is that I dislike the knob design (where I can't click on the value and drag up/down) and instead have to click on a specific radial position. It just seems to go against the modern design convention for user input in that regard.

Response from LuyuLiu from ZL Audio on September 15th, 2024

Thanks for the suggestion. :) I have just fixed it on the GitHub repo. It will be included in the next release.

Charlatan

Charlatan 3 is AWESOME. it's my go-to synth for core tones.

Clean easy to use modulation, mseg's, AMAZING PERFORMANCE. most synthesizers have half the flexibility, half the usability, and quadruple the processing cost.

Important wish list:

  • alt-drag curve modifier for segments in drawable waves. I'm sure limiting drawn waves to linear segments makes processing fm/pm easier- but it's one of two reasons I reach for anything else.
    • also could be partially implemented in with a corner smoothing/damping value.
  • per-oscillator pitch modulation, (rather than all oscillators with toggled effect) Some of my sound design (for menu blips, risers, etc) requires multiple oscillators moving in different directions with pitch. multiple instances gets close, doesn't allow multi-pitch-env FM.

extra awesomeness wishes::

  • "filter fm" where osc1 or 2 modulates the cutoff at audio rates. (would have high performance requirements when enabled, but starting with such a performant base makes this very desirable.).
  • some way to auto-tune pitch modulating xLFO to major/minor keys.

Much thanks for your work on this synth.

Free Suite

Reviewed By firebolt41 [all]

Version reviewed: 1.0 on Windows

Woah! the free convolver is huge!!! that's the piece missing from the kilohearts free suite. I'll happily be running these as the basics for reaper :).

My only complaint is that the free convolver doesn't have wet% decimal resolution. A log-scale knob to have more resolution in the 0-10% wet range would be awesome.
