TranceDrive

TranceDrive is a free software synthesizer developed by Maik Menz. Available format(s): VST for Windows.

TranceDrive is a subtractive synthesizer that was build for Trance music – it has built-in supersaw oscillators for fat synths and pads, harsh filters, a trancegate and a huge reverb effect.

Features:

3 main oscillators:

Each main oscillator supports 6 waveforms: sine, saw, triangle, pulse, saw7 and cry.

The waveform “saw7” is a supersaw with 7 detunable sub-oscillators.

The waveform “cry” is an experimental waveform, it is built up with several hard-synced saws.

Main oscillator 2 has an additional unisono mode, when it is enabled, the whole oscillator triples its voice and the voices can be detuned from each other.

The oscillators can be chained (osc1 to osc2 and osc2 to osc3) using FM, PM and sync, these 3 options can also be used at the same time.

Separate noise oscillator.

3 LFOs:

Each supports 5 waveforms: sine, saw, triangle, pulse, sample and hold

The LFOs can be synchronized to the host tempo or run free at a specific frequency.

Each LFO can control multiple parameters of each OSC, you can even assign several LFOs to the same parameter.

LFO1 can control the filter cutoff.

2 Envelope generators (Mod & Amp) with variable shapes. The modulation envelope can control multiple parameters of each OSC, and it can also be mixed with the LFOs. Additionally it can control the filter cutoff.

3 types of filters: lowpass, highpass and bandpass. Each filter type can be set to 6dB, 12dB, 18dB and 24dB steepness.

9 effects, and they can be used at the same time: gater, chorus, phaser, flanger, distortion, delay, reverb, equalizer, stereo-effects.

Each of the unused parts of the synth is shown with less contrast, so you can focus on the active parts.

The output of the synth can be clipped to avoid overdriving noise. The clipping is done with a soft limiter, that can be used to compress the whole synth sound (just enable clip and turn up the main volume).

Tramp Model A

Tramp Model A is a free software synthesizer developed by Deztex Limited Productions. Available format(s): VST for Windows.

Each Oscillator has Sine, Ramp, Saw, Triangle & Square Wave. Frequency is set by keyboard pitch with ratio adjustments up to +- 5 octaves. A control also can be used to tune up or down 1 octave in semi-tones (notes).

Each Operator has a separate 4 stage envelope generator; the rate settings can be multiplied for attack and decay rates that can run into minutes.

Each Operator has a separate control for setting the sensitivity for Velocity, Amplitude Modulation or Pitch Modulation.

An output level controls the output level for each OSC; each OSC can also be switched off.

Two LFOs: each is gated and has an Attack and Release Envelope; each produces Sine, Ramp, Saw, Triangle and Square Waves.

A 4-stage pitch envelope generator.

Operator 3 includes an adjustable feedback path.

A Biquad sweepable filter: Low Pass, Hi Pass, Band Pass or Notch; the Fc (critical / center frequency) and Q (bandwidth) is adjustable. The filter includes a built in gated LFO with Sine, Saw, Ramp, Triangle and Square Waves; the LFO is gated and can be delayed; LFO Speed and Depth controls are also included; the LFO modulates the FC of the filter.

Portamento and a Master Volume.

AM and PM.

Velocity Sensitivity.

Operators may be disabled with an on/off switch.

An output level.

The oscillators may be arranged in 8 different algorithms similar to the ones found on the Yamaha TX81z.

A 4 stage pitch EG is useful for messing up the pitch signal before it enters the operators.

A delayed LFO.

Here is the chain order: hi pass, low pass, gate/expander, ducker, pre EQ, compressor, Crossover, post EQ, limiter, (parallel to limiter: (crusher) with (fader) that output to master fader. These plugins do not pass threw limiter), output fader, level meter.

Note and Tips:

Use (Crusher) plugin to add saturation and thickness to a track or whole edit or totally alter sound for creative sound design.

You can use the dry control in the plugin or the quick parameter on the plugin to add more drymix after the limiter. Just remember to put a limiter after this rack if you start to clip.

Use the crossover to shape the tracks or songs to you liking.

Always volume match after altering each plugin before you turn up the output of any track
to make sure it is better and not just louder.
