英文简介:
Surge XT is a digital synth and makes no bones about it.
If you have used it in the past, it will be like welcoming an old friend back into your life. If you are new to Surge XT, welcome to the party. Come on in, the water is fine.
SYNTH SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
Synthesis method: Subtractive hybrid
? Each patch contain two scenes which are separate instances of the entire synthesis engine (except effects) that can be used to create layered or split patches.
? Quick category-based patch browser with textual search and favorites
? Runs on a variety of operating systems, plugin formats, and architectures
FACTORY SOUNDS
? 2779 patches
? 614 wavetables
OSCILLATORS
? 3 oscillators per scene, with 12 versatile oscillator algorithms: Classic, Modern, Wavetable, Window, Sine, FM2, FM3, String, Twist, Alias, S&H Noise and Audio Input.
? Classic oscillator is a morphable pulse/saw/dual saw oscillator with a sub-oscillator and hard sync.
? Modern oscillator is a mixable saw/pulse/triangle oscillator with an optional sub-oscillator mode for triangle (which can also change to sine or square) and hard sync.
? FM2/FM3 oscillators consist of a carrier and 2 or 3 modulators and various options.
? String oscillator uses two filtered waveguides to emulate plucked or bowed string sounds.
? Twist oscillator is based on a very famous Eurorack macro oscillator, and it offers a myriad of synthesis options in a very simple and quick way.
? Most algorithms (except FM2, FM3, Twist and Audio Input) offer up to 16-voice unison at the oscillator level.
? Oscillator FM in 3 different configurations and ring modulation between oscillators 1-2 and 2-3.
? Most oscillator algorithms (except FM2, FM3, Sine and Alias) are strictly band-limited, yet still cover the entire audible spectrum, delivering a clear, punchy and clean sound.
? Noise generator with variable spectrum (available directly in the oscillator mixer).
FILTER BLOCK
? Two filter units in 8 different configurations.
? Feedback loop available in 7 of those configurations.
? Available filter algorithms: Lowpass (12 and 24 dB/oct, each with 3 variations), Legacy Ladder Lowpass (6-24 dB/oct), Vintage Ladder Lowpass (2 variations, each with and without gain compensation), Highpass (12 and 24 dB/oct, each with 3 variations), Bandpass (12 and 24 dB/oct, each with 3 variations), Notch (12 and 24 dB/oct, each with 2 variations), Allpass (3 variations), Comb (positive and negative), S&H.
? Open-source additions to our filter algorithms include: K35 and Diode Ladder filter types from Odin 2 synthesizer, 12 and 24 dB/oct multimode filters from OB-Xd, and weird but fascinating Cutoff Warp, Resonance Warp and Tri-Pole filters by Jatin Chowdhury!
? Filters can self-oscillate (with excitation) and respond amazingly fast to cutoff frequency changes.
? Waveshaper (43 shapes).
MODULATION
? 12 LFO units available, 6 are per voice and 6 are global for the whole scene.
? DAHDSR envelope generators on every LFO.
? LFO shapes consist of 7 deformable LFO waveforms, step sequencer, a fully-fledged multi-segment envelope generator (MSEG) with various curves and up to 128 nodes, and last but not the least - a formula modulator which utilizes Lua scripting language to provide completely custom modulator output.
? Voice LFOs allow envelope retriggering in step sequencer mode.
? Extremely fast and flexible modulation routing. Almost every continuous parameter can be modulated!
EFFECTS
? 16 effect units arranged as 4 inserts per scene, 4 sends and 4 master effects.
? 27 effect algorithms:
FILTERING:
? 3-band fully parametric EQ
? 11-band graphic EQ
? Exciter
? Resonator
DISTORTION:
? CHOW
? Distortion
? Neuron
? Tape (based on ChowTapeModel!)
? Waveshaper
MANGLING:
? Combulator
? Frequency Shifter
? Nimbus
? Ring Modulator
? Treemonster
? Vocoder
MODULATION:
? Chorus
? Ensemble
? Flanger
? Phaser
? Rotary Speaker
TIME & SPACE:
? Delay
? Reverb 1
? Reverb 2
? Spring Reverb
MULTIEFFECTS:
? Airwindows (itself containing 56 effects!)
? Conditioner
? Mid-Side Tool
Changes in Surge XT 1.0.1
We have the best testers in the world, we really do. Surge XT 1.0 was nearly 1000 GitHub commits, almost every part of the code changed, and our beta testers discovered almost every bug before we released. And we had a lot of them. Those same testers found a few more bugs after we released, though, and a couple of them were serious enough that we decided to collect up the first fortnight of finds and fixes and do a small point release to give us time to get XT 1.1 together.Larger Bugfixes
? The Formula modulator vector output would crash or go into an infinite loop with 8 or more output values. Fixed to report a single error message when we have more than 8 outputs
? Fixed a crash when using vector modulators to modulate an FX slot and drag and drop to reordering effects
? On macOS, the menu outline box was not painted, making menus visually confusing for many users. Fixed to have parity in how menus look vs Windows and Linux
? Fixed a set of issues with the Windows installer which we found once more people actually ran the installer on various systems
? If two MIDI events had an identical timestamp, the second and all subsequent MIDI events in that block would push to the end of the block causing potential block-length synchronization errors
? The introduction of JUCE created a bypass parameter for VST3 plugins, which in some cases was improperly automated (especially in the FL randomizer). While we wait for a longer term fix, we made Surge XT continue to render when bypassed
? While most of our help links pointed to the XT manual, the actual Menu > Manual link pointed to the old manual!Smaller issues and regressions from Surge 1.9
? In touchscreen mode, always use Exact mouse sensitivity option
? When modulating FM ratios, use a correct result if a typein retains the “C: “ prefix
? User patches without categories will now appear in an uncategorized submenu (instead of not at all)
? ZIP files for Windows builds are now created with 7zip, so that Explorer can now unpack them without any 3rd party unpackers
? Rename the Tutorials skin category properly
? The filter cutoff slider wouldn’t visually reset when using the Reset to Keytrack Root option
? MSEG draw mode was incorrectly remembered across different MSEG modulator instances
? Dark skin had a graphical error in filter configuration graphic
? Favorites and Search icons were added to the Dark skinAdded a couple of XT 1.1 features which were harmless to merge
? Improved our testcase runtime
? Removed some OS specific APIs for thread handling now that we are on C++17
? If a multi-channel .wav file is loaded as a wavetable, we will load only the left channel instead of erroring out
? Ctrl-click on a modbutton will now arm a modulator without selecting it
? Bring back certain patches from Luna that were in Surge 1.9
