The frequency shift and delay looks like master Trog to me.

I thought it might be yours so I guess it's Trog's then. I've edited the post.
Thanks Martin

Selector switch bank

This is a module for making a single index value selection by pressing the appropriate switch. I like the fact that it's easy to add more switch elements and the rest is done for you. Or remove a few!

Spogged:
The original had 4 switches so I added another 2 to test it.
Added preset support.
Added a preset manager to demo and test.
Added a comment box.

Very good thingy!

Here is my version that can replace the octave selector in Detune module. Just replace it by this and that's it. With some patience you can customize it a bit using properties. I notice that switch's back is resizeable (it's not my job here). If you'll want less octaves, just go inside "Push Button" and change that Int's value from 6 to what you need (after removing spare modules in the chain). It's the offset.

X7 formant synthesiser

This is a synth dedicated to creating sounds based on modulation, sequentially and periodically, of formants (vowel sounds) and can also do a lot more besides.
The author has provided a default preset and 9 others to show some possibilities. I suspect that the range of sound design capabilities far exceed the demo presets and I believe that anyone wanting to learn this synth would be well rewarded.
I personally like synths that explore certain types of approach rather than attempted do-it-all designs which usually end up far too complex to get into. Just my personal take.
I noticed the clipper in this goes before the output volume control so can be used for distortion which will be present at any volume set. I like this idea! Always something to learn
I found lots of developmental posts that lead up to this release so I can see just how much work went into it. Give it a test drive!

Spogged: Just a small change to the first level schematic to fit on one monitor and changed the number of presets to 100.

I don't know!

It says Maik Menz on the schematic together with a dead link to yeday.com so maybe MyCo can confirm or deny?

Edit: Yes it's MyCo. The same dead link is on his profile. Call me Sherlock

I've amended the post, thanks tulamide.

Smackbox - Virtual analogue drum synth

It's a real voyage of discovery sifting through all the old projects. I often spend ages going through stuff obviously meant for problem solving, stuff that doesn't work very well (or at all) and rambling schematics that have no apparent purpose or what seems rather mundane by current standards.
Then I find a real gem like this 12 voice analogue drum synth.
I can't praise this highly enough. Great looks, logical layout, great range of sounds and 4 kits provided by the author.
I worked it out very quickly, which is again praise for the author. The only thing I'm puzzled by is the 3 radio button selection box lower right. Maybe someone can enlighten me.

Spogged: Changed the Preset Manager to Lock to preserve the kits supplied.

Stereo Phaser

Great sounding stereo phasing module with lots of options on the Properties view. The module comes in a good test environment ready to audition. You must try it with noise as a source. Sounds wild on headphones!

Spogged: Nothing. There were several earlier versions posted as this has developed and this is the most recent one I found.

Author: J. Bradford Hunter : cytoSonic
Note that the author has put a conditions of use notice in the phaser module.

Author: Unknown, but stw applied a "workaround" for something. Maybe he can remember...?

The creator of that should have been Stefan Hallen. One of the early members at SM. He also created the Anna synth which once won the second price at the KVR developer challenge 2006. http://www.kvraudio.com/kvr-developer-challenge/2006/

The radio buttons just seem to change the output routing. But since all are connected to the output module you won't notice any difference.
