This plugin emulates the ultra-funky sound of the Hohner Clavinet, forever associated with Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition”.
The synth engine is based on a physical modeling algorithm, faithfully reproducing the strings vibration and the 2 pickups of the Clavinet Model C. Special attention has been given to reproduce the non-linear interferences in strings decay, for an even more realistic sound. The characteristic “click” sound on key release is also emulated.
A built-in wah-wah effect with selectable manual/autowah mode is also included.
Emulation of the classic 303 bass synth.

Emulation of the classic 909 drum synth. Make sure that you put the ‘programme’ folder full of samples in the right directory - which was C:\ for me.

Cygnus was originally a collaboration between synth designer Ian Webster and sound designer Tim Conrardy. Now, spurred on by an off the cuff suggestion by Gearwire’s own Dan Agosto, Ian has taken his classic free VST and given it new life by adding 3 new sampling oscillators that accept the sf2 format. The integrated mix controls allow you to crossfade between each of the standard oscillators and the soundfont playback ones discreetly. All of the soundfont players have individual control over level, mix, and pitch. Finally, everything is summed into the Cygnus effects line.

DaHornet is a virtual simulation of the WASP synth, which offers up a wide assortment of great bass sounds. It is one of the rare VSTi’s that includes MIDI-learn, and a random-patch generator.

GTG Zapkit: Drumsynth a la Kraftwerk with multiple outputs. Pitch, decay and mod controls of individual drums.

My first - and probably only - attempt at a hardware synth emulation!
The reasons for this one is purely nostalgic - I used to own one of these back in the 80’s. The hardware version was manufactured by a Big Japanese Company, and it was quite popular as an entry-level, ultra-portable and above all cheap synthesizer. If there is one piece of old gear I truly miss now and then, this is it. Not for its sound, but just because it was so darn cute! Well, here it is again - in VSTi format. Hardware synth buffs and those who were there at the time, enjoy!

The “son of Hahaha CS01″
Whereas the CS01 is barely more than a synth-historical artefact, the CS33 builds on the concept and is quite a capable little synth even by today’s standard. While it can do all sorts of “bread and butter” sounds, its signature sounds come from the PWM oscillator waveforms, twin linked filter modes and the built-in distortion effects.

This synth is based on samples of real 19th century
Harmonium that i`ve sampled one day in center of Moscow.
It has very warm and realistic sound
Thanks Harmonium owner Vitaly Kataev
Attention!
This synth is 3 semitones lower than it must be.
Sorry, but i can`t repair it.
So use +3 semitones in your sequencer.

Each Layer (the plugin is stereo) is composed of two oscillators: a “Phase Distortion Oscillator” (Pdo) and an “Oscillator” (Osc), the oscillator signal is filtered by a “Multimode Filter”, a “Distortion” and a “Feedback”. All the modulations are controlled by an envelope generator, the velocity and the keyboard. Then the sound (4 oscillators+2 filters…) is filtered by a stereo VCF (undoubtedly one of the most complete vcf avaliable in freeware) and a VCA. All the modulations of the oscillators can be modulated by a double LFO.

MM SY 52 PSYCHO Synth is a VST instrument.
2 oscillators with selectable waveforms + 1 suboscillator, 1 filtersection with selectable characteristics, 1 amp section with distortion and pan.
There are pitch- filter and amp envelopes with velocity control and 3 LFO’s with joystick control for easy programming.
This synth is a great source for huge basses and fat leads, but also for very strange fx to analoque-sounding pads and agressive synth sounds.
MM SY 52 PSYCHO synth can sound very powerful and also very thin and ill, depending on the parameters. Everything can be controlled with MIDI CC messages.
This synth is polyphonic (6 voices) and has no internal effects.

MM SY 55 LEADER Synth is a VST instrument.
The architecture is quite simple : osc -> filter -> distortion -> amp, but the sounds are very different from this beast. Agressive, ill, manic and brutal are the main aspects of the presets and so the LEADER is best suited for agressive, dark and noisy type of music.
Don’t expect any nice pads or simulations of acoustic instruments from this synth.
Fat subbasses , heavy distorted Leads ( hence the name LEADER )and extreme FX are the domain of MM SY 55 LEADER.
This synth is monophonic, no internal effects and everything is controllable with MIDI CC messages.

MM SY 59 VECTORIZOR Synth is a VST instrument. 2 oscillators with selectable waveforms and morphable variations ( x/y control ), 2 filters with morphing capabilities, ringmodulation, warping and distortion and autopan per oscillator. 4 syncable stepsequencers with slew and velocity control are used to modulate amp, filter1, filter 2, ringmodulation and warp.
The sound of this synth is determined by the 4 sequencers and 4 x/y controls, which can drastically alter the sound of the oscillators.
