It was built to produce superior quality sound and music. It was built from a producer's point of view. Until now only very few software synthesizers have been able to stand up to the sound quality standards of hardware synths.
2 Modes of portamento sliding, which will slide both velocity and pitch parameters in polyphonic or monophonic mode.Sylenth1 is a virtual analog VSTi synthesizer that takes the definitions of quality and performance to a higher level. Sync mode for syncing LFO and delay parameters to host tempo. Knobs can be simply assigned to MIDI CCs using the MIDI learn function. Heavily optimized code using high-performance SSE processor instructions. Stereo compressor with attack, release, threshold and ratio settings. Smooth reverb with adjustable pre-delay, damp, size and stereo width. Delay module with low- and high-pass filters, unique echo smearing function, ping-pong mode with stereo spreading, independent left and right delay time and adjustable stereo width. 6-Stage stereo phaser, with 2x oversampling, an embedded LFO, feedback and frequency spread adjustment. Equalizer with bass and treble adjustment by frequency and amplification. Five different types of distortion in full stereo, with 4x oversampling to minimize aliasing artifacts. 4-Stage stereo chorus, with 2x oversampling, adjustable delay time, depth, rate and feedback for flanging effects. Outputs Step Velocity as a modulation source. Arpeggiator with built-in step sequencer, 10 different melodic modes, adjustable pitch, velocity and hold settings. Easy to use built-in master effects section consisting of an arpeggiator and 7 sound effects: distortion, phaser, chorus, equalizer, delay, reverb and compression. 16 Modulation slots with 24 different selectable modulation parameters each. 2 Low Frequency Oscillators with 11 different waveforms each. 4 ADSR envelope generators per note, which allow sharp attack and release.
16 Notes of polyphony, which adds up to a total of 512 simultaneous oscillator voices and 32 filters in realtime.The filters support selectable low-pass, band-pass and high-pass modes with 12dB or 24dB attenuation. Each filter contains 5 independent non-linear saturation functions. 2 “analog-sounding” 4-stage stereo filters per note.
This allows a total of 32 simultaneous voices for every note played, producing rich and complex sounds. 4 band-limited unison oscillators in full stereo, each of which can generate 8 voices per note.
