A less complicated offshoot from its flagship SynthMaster 2.8, KV331’s SynthMaster One is two-oscillator polyphonic wavetable synth with a single-screen interface that keeps (almost) everything in reach at all times. Generally speaking, it’s about as beginner-friendly as a serious synthesiser can be – which is to say, it’s a lot more beginner-friendly than its big. SynthMaster is an award-winning software synthesizer by KV331 Audio, available in VST AU and AAX formats. SynthMaster One runs as a VST instrument on both Windows and Mac OSX, and also as an Audio Unit instrument on Mac OSX and on iOS. On Windows, it runs as a standalone application as well. 1250 Factory Presets. SynthMaster Player runs as a VST, AAX instrument on both Windows and Mac OSX, and as an Audio Unit instrument on Mac OSX and iOS. 1800 Factory Presets SynthMaster Player comes with 1800 factory presets from a world class team of sound designers.

SynthMaster is a semi-modular software synthesizer and effect plug-in in VST, Audio Units and RTAS formats, developed by KV331 Audio.

SynthMaster features many different synthesis methods including VA, Additive, Wavetable, Wavescanning, Phase Modulation, Frequency Modulation, Pulse Width Modulation, Ring Modulation, Amplitude Modulation, Physical Modeling and SFZ Sample Playback synthesis. It has multi-synthesis oscillators, analog modelled/digital filters, flexible effects routing with 11 types of high quality effects and a massive modulation architecture with 95 separate modulation sources and 650+ modulation targets.

RTAS Release[edit]

On March 1, 2012, KV331 Audio released SynthMaster 2.5 in RTAS format.^[1]

With this latest update, SynthMaster 2.5 became compatible with AvidProTools 8 and above on Windows 7, Mac OS X Snow Leopard and Mac OS X Lion operating systems.

64 Bit MacOSX Release[edit]

On February 2, 2012, KV331 Audio has updated SynthMaster for Windows and Mac OS X to version 2.5.4.133.^[2] In this latest update, SynthMaster became a native 64-bit VST/AU plug-in on Mac OS X.

In this update, the following features have been added to SynthMaster as well:

• Added online presets uploaded by registered users.
• Added a new (red) skin, created by Irion DaRonin.
• Added new global setting to enable/disable hiding older presets.
• Added new global setting to enable/disable bipolar easy parameters.
• For effect version of SynthMaster, oscillator type is set to 'audioin' by default now.

Version 2.5 Official Release[edit]

On October 11, 2011, KV331 Audio announced the official release of SynthMaster 2.5.^[3] Since the beta release of version 2.5 in October 2010, KV331 Audio have added the following features to SynthMaster:

• 400 New Factory Presets: SynthMaster 2.5 comes with 400 new factory presets from a world class team of sound designers: BigTone, Ümit UY (Insigna), Frank ‘Xenox’ Neumann, Teoman Pasinlioglu, Mr Shoufuku and Brian ‘Xenos’ Lee.
• SFZ Import: It is now possible with version 2.5 to generate SFZ files by dragging and dropping multiple WAV/AIFF samples onto an oscillator waveform display.
• Stereo Oscillators with Improved Unison: Oscillators in SynthMaster 2.5 have now stereo output. With the new “voices”, “pan spread” and “detune spread” parameters, each basic/wavescanning oscillator can have its own unison settings which eliminates the need to enable unison for all voice elements.
• Improved Arpeggiator: The number of steps in the arpeggiator is increased to 32, while classic arpeggiator modes such as up, down, updown, downup and as played are added as well. Drag and drop of MIDI files onto the arpeggiator display is also possible now so that monophonic/polyphonic sequences can be imported into the arpeggiator.
• Improved Modulation Architecture: The modulation architecture has been vastly improved, so that now there are 3 modulation sources available for each modulation target. A modulation matrix with 64 slots is also added. The matrix has filtering as well so that targets for a specific source, or sources for a specific target can be filtered and shown on the user interface.
• Improved Easy Parameters: The easy parameters can now be globally linked to MIDI controllers, and they can be assigned automatically by SynthMaster.
• Microtuning: SynthMaster now supports Scala tuning, so tuning can be set either for each preset or globally.
• Flexible Effects Routing: With version 2.5, there is no more the differentiation of layer/global effects. Each effect can be inserted on a layer or on one of the 2 global effect buses.

Expansion Packs:

Synthmaster For Mac Pro

The new white skin by Satyatunes is available in various sizes, ranging from 80% to 200%:

SynthMaster One v1.3 comes with 200 new factory presets by BT (Brian Transeau), Kurt Ader and Luke Neptune. Total number of presets are now 1250! Please scroll down to listen the audio demos.

SynthMaster One v1.3 comes with rich scale library, ranging from 5 tone equaltempered to 12 tone alternate-tuning scales:

With the new cloud features, users can now synchronize their SynthMaster One related data (presets, waveforms, samples, favourites, midi programs) on multiple machines/platforms and share their presets with other SynthMaster One users:

SynthMaster One comes with 3 new envelope types: Digital, Profat and Oobee. Digital is the default algorithm in SynthMaster, whereas Profat and Oobee are new algorithms modelled after two well-known analog synthesizers:

Users can now set the keyboard mapping of the current scale to either “fill octave” or “consecutive”. The piano display highlights the notes of the scale. Under settings tab, the scale root note and A4 reference frequency can be adjusted:

Users can now add custom attributes or styles for the presets they create.

Users can now edit MIDI Bank/Program assignments by launching the “MIDI Banks and Programs” dialog:

Stereo Oscillators with Unison/Voice Stacking: Oscillators in SynthMaster have stereo output. Using the 'voices', 'voices mix', 'detune curve', 'detune spread', 'pan stread', 'tone spread' and 'phase spread' parameters, each basic/wavetable oscillator can generate a rich 'supersaw' type sound.

Basic oscillators in SynthMaster One are capable of synthesizing many different types of waveforms: Sine, Square, Triangle, Sawtooth, Pulse, Noise, single cycle waveforms. Each oscillator comes with 17 different algorithms in the following categories: Spectral (LP, HP, LS, HS, BP, BS), Bend (Bend+, Bend-, Bend+/-), Sync (Rect Window, Half Cos Window, Cos Window, Tri Window, Saw Window), Pulse (Pulse1, Pulse2) and Quantize.

• Sine, Square, Triangle, Sawtooth, Pulse, Noise
• Single cycle waveforms

Each of the 2 oscillators in SynthMaster One have stereo output, and can have up to 16 voices 'unison'. Using the 'voices', 'voices mix', 'detune curve', 'detune spread', 'pan stread', 'tone spread' and 'phase spread' parameters, each oscillator can generate a rich 'supersaw' type sound.

SynthMaster One implements true wavetable synthesis which opens up new possibilities for sound design. You can import wave files that contain wavetables into SynthMaster One and use them in your projects. SynthMaster One comes with a rich wavetable library and you can extend that by placing wavetables under the Waveforms folder of SynthMaster One.

• Contains many wavetables
• You can import your own wavetables by drag and drop
