1 Sample of Synth Engines and Effects

This is a sample of the synth engines and audio effects available in Zynthian:

1.1 Synth Engines



1.2 Effects

2 Supported engine types

Zynthian support 3 types of engines:

+ Standalone: They need a specific engine wrapper so zynthian can "talk" with them.

+ LV2 Plugins: They must be compiled for RBPi (ARM):

+ Native: Included in the zynthian codebase.

Support for VST, DSSI and LADSPA plugins has been removed for simplicity, but it could be re-enabled in the future if we have good reasons for doing so.


2.1 Zynthian Native Engines

  • Audio Player: (now called ZynSampler) Audio file player, sampler, looper.

2.2 Standalone Engines


2.3 LV2 Synth Plugins

Zynthian use Jalv to execute LV2 plugins. It runs LV2-plugins as standalone processors) http://blog.zynthian.org/index.php/2018/09/28/new-engine-jalv-lv2-plugins-as-standalone-layers/

  • Dexed (Yamaha DX7 emulation)
  • MDA plugins (LV2 port of MDA plugin collection, including ePiano, JX10, DX10 and others)
  • TAL free plugins (Some plugins from Togu Audio Line, including Noize M4k3r and more)
  • DISTRHO Plugins-Ports (A collection of plugins ported to Linux that includes OBXd and others)
  • DISTRHO DPF-Plugins (A plugin collection which includes the Nekobi Bass Monosynth and more)
  • Calf plugins (One of the best free software plugin collection)
  • Helm (Advanced Polyphonic Synthesizer + Arpeggiator): Manual
  • AMSynth (Analog Modelling Synthesizer)
  • Synthv1 (Old School Polyphonic Synthesizer)
  • Padthv1 (Old School Polyphonic Additive Synthesizer)
  • SooperLooper Live looping sampler capable of immediate loop recording, overdubbing,
  • Surge Free & Open source hybrid synthesizer...
  • MiMi-d: The digital version of the 80's hardware analog synthesizer MiMi-a
  • DrumGizmo: Open source, multichannel, multilayered, drum plugin
  • GeonKick: Free software for generating a wide range of percussive sounds
  • Drum Kits as LV2 plugins: Shortcut to ready-to-use soundfont-based drum kits
  • And much more ...

MDA DX10 Simple 2-op FM synth with metallic acid-like sound. Synth Frequency Modulation (FM) Suffice to say, you cannot model 2-op Yamaha sounds accurately using DX10 (without losing your mind that is), you can however use it for its own merits. One of those merits include a waveform modulator, where you can modulate between a sine and "saw" approximation that contains additional harmonies added to the fundamental sine. -cyrb review at KVRaudio
