Instrument Presets

The concept behind SYNTHS DX is to build a ROMpler-like sampled instrument which sounds as great as the original synths: we captured almost all instruments patches key-to-key and we applied the minimum software post-production effects to keep these patches as rich and fresh as the originals. Therefore the GUI is extremely simple & easy-to-use – and were carefully selected and tailored these controls for each instruments so every variations sound great.
