One Synth Challenge #192: Six Sines by BaconPaul

Overview

---

#SoundDesign #prodcomp

Six Sines by BaconPaulis the new synth by BaconPaul of the Surge Synth Team, created as a kind of '40 day challenge'.

Six Sines is so named because each voice has six sines, with some clever combinations thereof. You might call it an "FM" or "PM" synth (but it also does "RM"). There's lots of modulation options. It comes with some great presets. If you pine for the TX81Z, it may be right up your alley. But it does more than that.
​
It works as a CLAP, VST3, AUv2 (mac) or standalone, supports Windows, Mac and Linux, and has screen reader support on win/mac. It can use quite a bit of CPU if you turn up unison, but its not insanely inefficient.

The dulcitone is a hidden gem: Built around 1910, this unique tuning-fork piano sports a vibrant tone remeniscent of a “mellow” vibraphone, glockenspiel, marimba and a piano – yet a sound of its own.
