AlsaModularSynth jest syntezatorem modularnym pracującym w czasie rzeczywistym i procesorem efektów. Udostępnia:

• Oprogramowanie modułowe do kontrolowania syntezy MIDI.
• Procesor efektów czasu rzeczywistego z funkcją przechwytywania dźwięku z np. wejścia liniowego lub mikrofonowego.
• Możliwość pełnego kontrolowania całej syntezy i parametrów efektów za pomocą MIDI.
• Zintegrowaną przeglądarkę LADSPA z możliwością wyszukiwania.
• Wsparcie dla serwera JACK.

Bristol is a synthesizer emulator application. Bristol uses the sound card PCM generator and can be MIDI driven, furthermore it can be set to use the low latency scheduling feature of the kernel, reducing audio under runs. It can handle any number of simultaneous synthesizers (they all connect to the same engine). It supports splitting and layering the keyboard with multiple synthesizers on a single midi channel. Currently Bristol emulates the following keyboards: Moog Mini, Moog Voyager (Bristol "Explorer"), Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, Roland Juno-6, Yamaha DX-7, Hammond (single manual), Hammond B3 (dual manual).

PHASEX is an experimental JACK audio / ALSA MIDI softsynth for Linux with a synth engine built around flexible phase modulation and flexible oscillator/LFO sourcing.

Modulations include AM, FM, offset PM, and wave select. PHASEX comes equipped with a 12db/octave filter with two distortion curves, a stereo crossover delay and chorus with phaser, ADSR envelopes for amplifier and filter, realtime audio input processing capabilities, velocity/aftertouch sensitivity, and more.

Pure Data (also known as Pd) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio and graphics processing. Pd's audio functions are built-in; graphical computations require separate packages such as gem (Graphics Environment for Multimedia) or pd-pdp (Pd Packet).

Yoshimi jest programowym syntezatorem do systemów GNU/Linux, opartym na ZynAddSubFX 2.4.0.

Yoshimi oferuje takie same możliwości syntezatora wraz z bardzo dobrą funkcjonalnością Jack i Alsa midi/audio w systemie Linux.

Aeolus jest zsyntezowanym (tj. nie bazującym na próbkach) emulatorem organów piszczałkowych, który powinien być wystarczająco dobry do znajdowania przyjemności z gry na organach. Jest to syntezator programowy, zoptymalizowany tak, aby w każdej chwili umożliwić użytkownikowi ustawienie brzmienia instrumentu za pomocą całego mnóstwa przełączników.

Główne cechy instrumentu: trzy manuały i jeden pedał, pięć różnych systemów strojenia, regulacja dostrojenia, kontrola nad przebiegiem procesu MIDI, stereo, wyjścia surround lub Ambisonics, elastyczne sterowanie systemem audio obejmujące duży pogłos sal koncertowych.

Aeolus nie jest zbyt zasobożerny i powinien już pracować na maszynach z procesorem 1GHz i 256Mb pamięci RAM.

• Easy navigation and manipulation of presets
• Stand-alone OSS or ALSA Midi/Audio client

This JACK program is a port of the free VST plugin AZR-3. It is a tonewheel organ with drawbars, distortion and rotating speakers. The original was written by Rumpelrausch Täips.

The organ has three sections, two polyphonic with 9 drawbars each and one monophonic bass section with 5 drawbars. The two polyphonic sections respond to events on MIDI channel 1 and 2, and an optional keyboard split function makes the bass section listen to the lower keys on channel 1.

The three sections have separate sustain and percussion switches as well as separate volume controls, and the two polyphonic sections have separate vibrato settings. All three sections are mixed and sent through the distortion effect and the rotating speakers simulator, where the modulation wheel can be used to switch between fast and slow rotation, and the fast and slow rotation speeds themselves can be changed separately for the lower and upper frequencies.

The YC-20 is a divide-down combo organ designed in the late 60's. This emulation faithfully copies the features, sounds and flaws of the original organ.

Features:

• 61 keys
• Two main voice sections
• Switchable bass section
• Generator + matrix mixer => no polyphony restrictions
• A realism control to add flaws found in the real organ

Flaws:

• Takes quite a bit of CPU power
• No touch vibrato

The emulation is written in Faust and uses Jack for audio and MIDI.

monobristol provides a simple GUI for Bristol.

Bristol is synth emulation package for a diverse range of vintage synthesizers, electric pianos and organs. The application consists of a multithreaded audio synthesizer and a user interface called brighton.

QSampler is a LinuxSampler GUI front-end application written in C++ around the Qt3 toolkit using Qt Designer. At the moment it just wraps as a client reference interface for the LinuxSampler Control Protocol (LSCP).

A real-time software synthesizer for Linux and Windows with many features, including polyphony, multi-timbral and microtonal capabilities. It includes randomness of some parameters, which makes warm sounds, like analogue synthesizers. It has system/insertion effects too, and much more.

LinuxSampler is sampler backend, thus server-like console application. It provides a TCP based network interface with a custom ASCII based protocol called "LSCP" to control the sampler and manage sampler sessions. Users either have to send commands manually to LinuxSampler, e.g. by connecting via 'telnet' or by using 'netcat' or they might want to use a graphical user interface (frontend) like QSampler (C++/Qt based).

It also offers disk streaming capability and supports the Gigasampler format which is currently considered to be the best sampler format in regards of possibilities and sound quality.

This package provides the backend application of LinuxSampler.
