Newsynth1

A Synth1-inspired virtual analog instrument.

About

Newsynth1 is a clean-room module port inspired by the open-source OpenSynth1 project. It keeps the same broad instrument geography and the upstream .sy1 parameter ordering while using Maru's own module, preset and Processor contracts.

This first catalog release is deliberately a proof of concept: it is playable, has the complete 102-parameter surface and 32 converted factory programs, and is useful for judging the interface and overall instrument feel. It is not yet a claim of byte-for-byte or parameter-for-parameter DSP equivalence.

Experimental

A sketch of the signal path, in the order of the parameter groups.

How it works.

MIDI note events enter the module's zero-input, stereo-output Processor. Voice allocation, oscillator generation, envelopes, filtering, modulation and the effect stages run inside the compiled module program.

The module owns its canonical preset values and translates the upstream .sy1 bank into that contract. The ignored OpenSynth1 checkout is retained only as local reference material and is not part of the published package.

Goes well with.
