Great Free Synths

Meddle & Intro - both PC synthedit creations but don't let that put you off - the latter in particular is fantastic with 4 osc and 64 waveforms.

I love the GUI work. I tried both synths within Energy XT and my CPU shot through the roof. Had to quit my program obviously.
Anyhow, thanks for sharing.

Looks good, surely gonne check them out if they are VST.

thats kinda my question is it a standalone only? or can it be used as plugin (VST) for lets say cubase or so?

I tried the first one. CPU went off the chart and pointer went into slow motion.

Now removed and discarded.

I haven't tried these, but with any SynthEdit creation, CPU usage is generally the poor point. I don't think that I will try these.

They are supposed to sound great...but I have plenty of great sounding synths, that are not SynthEdit, but use modestly less CPU...

I still don't understand why people aren't changing to Synthmaker, or Reaktor5, or other user environments. I don't believe that SynthEdit is that great...

But that is just my .02.

And there are those who would definitely contradict me.

hi guys, i am totally new to this forum... so i like to say hello.

here is a really great free synth, the sound is outstanding, avialable as VST or AU with lots of extra patches... the tweakabilty is honestly amazing!!! maybee some of you know it already, though...

but i have to disapoint you, it's also a CPU hog, but if you have a reasonable mashine it's shurely worth running it, the sound will simply blow you away!!!

Apologies if the synths I linked caused problems for some - Intro's is a great sounding synth but, as someone stated, Synthedit does have some problems and isn't exactly the most efficient platform. However it is popular and people do crank out some great sounding synths predominately for free. I've already got a wad of payware but, in case anyone hasn't seen them already, as some have already linked do check these out:

Shit I remember saving for months back in the 80's just to buy a Juno - when I look at what musicians can download for free in a matter of seconds these days it really is a good time to be involved

It isn't really that big a deal: People who have been exposed to more complex rhythms while growin up have a firmer grasp of rhythm as a whole. Fun read, regardless.
