3. Nightlife By Acoustica
Nightlife is a fun and inspiring virtual synthesizer instrument, packed with bone–rattling basses, otherworldly pads, beat–synced arpeggiated patterns and tons more, making it the ideal choice for modern dance, EDM, or trance styles. And with three oscillators, five built-in mod sequencers, dual filters with fifteen filter types plus a vowel filter, four LFOs, flexible mod matrix, a bit crusher, and five killer effects, Nightlife is a programmable powerhouse. For users who just want to rock the house without a lot of pushing the mouse, Nightlife includes a ton of edgy, evocative preset patches.
4. Tunefish By Braincontrol
Tunefish is a very tiny virtual analog synthesizer. It is developed to fit into about 10kb of compressed machine code while still producing an audio quality that can compete with commercial synthesizers. This site was created to make the VST/AU version of it available to the public. This plugin, unlike the version of TF which is used in 64k intros of our group Brain Control is of course larger, mainly because it has a UI and uses the excellent Juce framework for C++. (This is true for TF4 and TF3. TF2 uses the VSTGUI library.) The synth is free but comes without any warranties.
FEATURES
Available on Windows and Linux as VST (32 and 64 bit) and on Mac as Audio Unit or VST
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
Ample Bass P Lite II aim to bring the Fender Precision Bass sound.
Ample Guitar M Lite II aim to bring the Martin D-41 Acoustic Guitar sound.
Ample sounds are well known for their outstanding virtual guitar libraries and standalone instruments. M LITE AND P LITE are two freewares from Ample which can create very good realistic guitar sounds.
