It’s been a while since I surveyed the market for free software synths, so I thought I’d give it go and see what’s new and what has stood the test of time. Some of these instruments were released as prototypes or were the early experiments of developers just entering the market.

Free stuff is not always actually free. Often you will follow a link only to find out that it’s a free “demo”. Aren’t all demos supposed to be free?? In other cases, free software is dangled like a carrot in order to get your email address or to entice you into buying other products, preset libraries, add-ons, etc.

Well, business is business, and I suppose everyone needs to make a buck. I really don’t mind spending a few dollars for some shareware now and again to support a budding developer. But it behooves even the most experienced consumer to proceed with caution when the word free is thrown around.

Believe me, we’ve all made far worse choices than adding a Focusrite to our studios.It comes complete with a ton of cool software, too, including Pro Tools First Focusrite Creative Pack, Ableton Live Lite, Softube Time and Tone Bundle, Focusrite’s Red Plug-in Suite, a 3-month Splice subscription, and your choice of one free XLN Addictive Keys virtual instrument, all available by download upon purchase and registration.There’s even a Quick Start tool to get you recording at once. You need this.PROS. Best-in-class high-level conversion and sample rates up to 192kHz / 24 bit and super-low roundtrip latency for using your plug-ins in real time also make this an attractive and useful piece for any home or project studio.Other features include 1/4-inch balanced jack outputs for your studio monitors and one headphone output with gain control.USB interfaces are still very popular for their combination of performance, compatibility, and price and this is pretty much the best audio interface for guitar ever made. Good guitar tone with presonus studio one 3 vst plugins. This is a great value, particularly for home recordists. One look at the and it’s easy to understand why.The 2i2 is a USB-powered unit featuring two natural-sounding Scarlett mic preamps with plenty of balanced gain on tap as well as a switchable Air Mode that provides a brighter, more open sound to your vocal and acoustic guitar tracks.This third-generation unit also packs two newly-designed instrument inputs formulated to take seriously hot guitar pickups with ease.

What follows are some awesome sounding instruments in no particular order that are indeed free with very few strings attached. And if you can stomach a little extra spam, some of these may prove valuable additions to your stockpile of synths.

1. TyrellN6 by u-he

Virtual analog with classic architecture, plus extras.
Two oscillators, noise, ring modulator.
Two LFOs with eight waveforms that are host-syncable.
Audio source mixer with authentic overdrive and filter feedback.
Twin filter related to Diva (early model).
Unison with up to eight voices.
Analog-type ADSR envelopes, loopable or LFO-triggered.
Small modulation matrix with depth modulation from a second source.
Chorus effect with three modes.
MIDI learn / unlearn for hardware control.
Resizable UI from 70% to 200%.
Skinnable UI.
Over 580 factory presets.

This thing is responsive as hell and sounds sweet! I love the stained and grungy aesthetic of the interface. It’s really hard to believe it’s free. But it serves its purpose I suppose because it truly whets the appetite for more stuff from u-he.

2. Dexed

Dexed is an emulation of the classic FM synth: Yamaha DX7.

From the Github page:

“Dexed is a multi-platform, multi-format plugin synth that is closely modeled on the Yamaha DX7. Dexed is also a midi cartridge librarian/manager for the DX7. Do not expect this to be a perfect clone of a DX7 since this will take years in the open source world and multiple collaborators before getting there … Since Dexed is modeled on the DX7, the Yamaha DX7 Operating Manual can be used as a reference documentation.”

The interface is a little cluttered and is more functional than it is aesthetically pleasing, but there are a ton of sonic possibilities with this for those willing to dig in.

3. MiniSpillage

“MiniSpillage is a free professional quality drum synthesizer plugin featuring high-resolution 64-bit DSP processing.
MiniSpillage includes three exclusive drum synthesis algorithms along with distortion effects and resonant filters.”
