CLUSTER SYNTHESIZER-FILTERS-GENERATES · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2022-06-14
Software synthesizer design tools
This cluster comprises software synthesizers and sound-design tools that let users generate and shape electronic tones via oscillators, filters, envelopes, and wavetables. Entries appear sporadically from March 2022 through April 2024, with the largest single-month count being two in April 2024. Traction leaders, each with 0 stars, are Borg ER-3, midistrum, and Odin2.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 10 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
