Synthmaker

2008-04-10 by jdcx64

Yesterday I was shown a piece of software that may be of interest to
many people on this list:
www.synthmaker.com is an amazing graphical tool for synth development.
Component modules can be chosen chosen from a selection of buttons,
midi things, oscillators, envelopes. filters, etc. and placed on the
working area, and their input/output terminals connected with virtual
patch cables.
The modules are made of other modules and C-like code. The insides of
modules are available for inspection and editing, and new modules can
be created.
Module code is translated into DSP-like (4 floating point operations
per clock cycle SSE pentium) code that runs in real time on a per
sample basis, and amazingly you can have a look at the actual SSE
instructions.
One of the pre-made demo projects is a virtual TB-303, a real one, not
a rompler. The software has also been used to make CZ-like emulators.
The greatest: if you build something worthy you can save it as a
stand-alone executable and distribute it for free or for profit.
If you're interested download the demo and have a look at the forums.
I'm trying to overcome my MS phobia and have a windows PC on my desk
just to use it.
