Description

Monophonic analogue synth designed to re-create the sound of a person whistling.

CPU Usage - very low.

Instructions

To install simply unzip and copy the dll to your VSTI plugins folder.

Controls for this synth are as follows:

• Volume - controls the overall volume level
  
  
• Velocity - controls the amount that key velocity affects the volume level
  
  
• Attack - the larger the amount, the longer the attack stages of the amplitude, frequecy and LFO envelopes
  
  
• Jump - this is the depth control for the frequency envelope and determines how far below the played note the pitch will slide from- adjusting this does not alter tuning of the played note
  
  
• Noise - this controls the amount of white noise (breathyness) included in the whitle tone
  
  
• Speed - this is the LFO rate control
  
  
• Warble - this is the LFO depth control - the amount of tremolo and vibrato are carefully balanced to sound natural no matter what setting is applied
  
  
• Glide - if notes are played overlapping portamento will be applied - this control determines the portamento time.

Tips

• play legato and use combinations of pitch bend and modulation to create a more natural and dynamic perfomance.
  
  
• add a little reverb, this synth is very basic and although it sounds quite nice dry, it really comes to life when a bit of reverb is added
  
  
• playing too rapidly will result in popping or clicking.
