Syntronik
Syntronik is a cutting-edge virtual synthesizer that raises the bar in sound quality and flexibility thanks to the most advanced sampling techniques combined with a new hybrid sample and modeling synthesis engine. Syntronik includes 17 amazing Synths, available as a collection or separately, with over 2,000 preset sounds covering a wide selection from 38 of the most iconic to ultra-rare and painstakingly multi-sampled vintage synthesizers. Syntronik’s synthesis engine goes well beyond traditional sampling thanks to a brand new analog modeled filter section created with the utmost expertise from IK, the pioneer in virtual circuit modeling. This is coupled with exclusive DRIFT™ technology to accurately reproduce the behavior of oscillators from real hardware synths. All of this combined with an effects section that is unrivaled in the world of virtual instruments along with advanced features like 4-part Multis, splits and arpeggiators make Syntronik the ultimate source of inspiration.

TyrellN6
TyrellN6 is a compact, sporty synth. Based on concepts and ideas for a hardware synth: a few modules, novel features, analog sound, and low cost. TyrellN6 is the software version manifestation of these ideas. Available as a free download exclusively from the German online magazine Amazona. TyrellN6 is a free virtual analog synthesizer developed by u-he, inspired by the design of classic hardware synths like the Roland Juno 60. It features two oscillators, noise, a ring modulator, and two LFOs with eight waveforms. The audio source mixer includes authentic overdrive and filter feedback, while the twin filter is related to u-he's Diva synthesizer. TyrellN6 supports unison with up to eight voices and offers analog-type ADSR envelopes that are loopable or LFO-triggered. A small modulation matrix with depth modulation from a second source, a chorus effect with three modes, and MIDI learn/unlearn for hardware control are also included.

Repro
Repro dives into the past for analog inspiration, meticulously modeling two famous synthesizers. Every detail of the original was captured using component-level modeling technology to create the most authentic model possible. All the subtle characteristics and quirks found in the originals are present in Repro. One product, one installer, two synths. The classic design gives you immediate access to all the raw power. Two oscillators, a self-oscillating 4-pole lowpass filter, an arpeggiator, a step sequencer, the unique modulation section, and five stomp-box effects can be arranged in any order. Hard-working, raw sounding, and immediately playable, it's a simple and intuitive synthesizer that belies a deep feature set capable of a wide range of sounds. Our plug-in version includes all the lovable quirks of this classic synth, but with a much more capable sequencer, lots of presets, several under-the-hood tweaks, and more modulation options.

Podolski
Created in 2005 and still going strong. Podolski is a free, straightforward, CPU-efficient virtual analog synthesizer. One oscillator, one filter, one envelope, and an arpeggiator/sequencer. Simple, but with a few tricks up its sleeve. Create high-quality sounds with ease. Podolski is a simple, CPU-efficient virtual analog synthesizer. Basically a cut-down version of FilterscapeVA with just one oscillator, one filter, one envelope, and two LFOs, it also features a Zebra-style arpeggiator/sequencer plus chorus and delay effects. Podolski's specialties are the click parameter (which emphasizes the filter attack) and its ability to seamlessly morph between three waveforms (WaveWarp). Oscillator with variable symmetry (sawtooth to triangle, PWM) and glide. Combination arpeggiator/16-step sequencer with extra modulation source. ADSR or HDSR, linear or exponential. Sustain has fall/rise control.
