Tunefish 4

Tunefish 4 free software-synthesizer by Brain Control

Tunefish 4 is a free software synthesizer developed by Brain Control. Available format(s): VST, VST3, Audio Unit for Windows 64b, macOS.

Tunefish 4 was developed as a smaller replacement of Tunefish 3 with roughly the same power, it is however not compatible and uses different synthesis algorithms. It was developed for the 64k intro “Turtles all the way down” by demoscene group Brain Control and is available as VST/AU.

Features:

  • Improved UI compared to TF3 which will visualize all modulations.
  • Uses an additive synthesis based wavetable generator.
  • The Noise generator can produce any frequency of noise with any bandwidth.
  • Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass and an improved Notch filter are available.
  • 2 ADSRs and 2 LFOs that can be linked to pretty much any important knob using a modulation matrix.
  • Supported effects are Flanger, Chorus, Distortion, Delay, Reverb, EQ and Formant.
  • The effects stack allows for any permutation of up to 10 effects.

SyndtSphere – Sound Surfer Synthesizer

SyndtSphere - Sound Surfer Synthesizer free software-synthesizer by Klevgränd Produktion

SyndtSphere – Sound Surfer Synthesizer is a free software synthesizer developed by Klevgränd Produktion. Available format(s): VST, Audio Unit for Windows, macOS.

SyndtSphere is basically a sphere version of the polyphonic synthesizer Syndt. It offers a brand new way of finding the optimal sound; by rotating a sphere that consists of more than 70 professionally created states anyone can dial in the perfect sound. In addition to the sphere, a ping-pong delay and a few more global settings are available.

Sprike

Sprike free software-synthesizer by Cognitone

Sprike is a free software synthesizer developed by Cognitone. Available format(s): VST, Audio Unit for Windows, macOS.

Sprike is an extended variant of Tunefish4, the virtual analog synth originally created by Brain Control.

We made Sprike cooperate more nicely in a MIDI-controlled environment (MIDI sequencers). Following MIDI standards, it responds to bank and program selection messages, master volume and pan controllers. Presets are stored in compliance with operating system conventions. We also added four new MOD sources and enhanced it with an on-screen keyboard. The user interface was enhanced with master volume/pan controls and a level meter. Delay times can be set in terms of note lengths.

Sprike is very lightweight, so you can add 10 or more instances to your project without much impact on CPU load. It has the same expressive and crisp sound as Tunefish and comes with a new bank of factory presets.

Sprike is free open source software. You will find its source code on GitHub.

NanoX2

NanoX2 free software-synthesizer by Pluggotic

NanoX2 is a free software synthesizer developed by Pluggotic. Available format(s): VST for Windows.

NanoX2 is an additive sequenced groovebox that features:

  • A raw 8bit-style sound inspired by the sound of gaming systems & consoles from the past.
  • A sequencer that triggers eight partials inspired by NanoSynth (by Oliver Wittchow & Julian Rohrhuber).
  • A scene-morphing sequencer that will fuse the previous features into a nice mess.

Differently from its predecessor, NanoX2 doesn’t require MIDI notes to be triggered and pitched. Open it and just press play on your sequencer to start the serenade, it’s loaded with 124 preset patterns.
