Rich @ DLD.
The fact that you can Automate this is awesome !!Dedicated displays show the Supersaw frequency spread and amplitude, which can all be changed in real-time
Reminds me of this .... The only thing I find is that it sounds better if you stick it in a combinator and use the builtin Reason Filter ECF-42 set it to receive notes...you can get wayyy better sounding Plucks !
would be cool if:
1. If Megasaur had an envelope amount...it would help with plucks !!
2. Had a stereo width knob or slider !
I find that yes the default stereo makes it sounds very wide, but the minute you add a stereo image on there at small amount..it sound wayy to wide...sure a way to fix this is use the width knob on the Mixer!
Did a little run through...using only POLY mode 3
Good job Dev...quick and EZ Super saw

My opinion is that Propellerhead REASON needs a complete rewrite!
P.S: people should stop saying "No it won't happen" when referring to a complete rewrite of REASON. I have 3 letters for ya....VST

I'm very curious to try that "human" knob... And with the three saw oscillators, I'm really curious to know what kind of synthetic choirs one can make with this synth... When I upgrade Reason, this might be one of the first synths I try! Early 2016 maybe?

Can anyone tell me how you detune the oscillators? Cant see this fuction on the front panel and cant get the demo video to work.
I was hoping for some aggressive detuned saws - can this do it?

You mean like an Envelope Amount assigned to the filter? I'm curious about this too.Benedict wrote:I am struggling to come to terms with the relationship between LP Cutoff and Filter Env. I am not seeing a Env to Filt knob and it seems that this is hardwired in some way... Manual doesn't make this clear.
Anyone worked it out, or perhaps Mr DLD can explain?
Thanks

Each OSC Detunes within itself but not from one to another, which sounds like a fail but isn't at all as you can see with the detuning the Thor Multi OSC has no particularly useful effect. Just detune/spread one OSC more than the other.TheFesta wrote:Can anyone tell me how you detune the oscillators? Cant see this fuction on the front panel and cant get the demo video to work.

I'll try to answer a few questions:
Hope that answers most of the questions.. Megasaur was always designed to be simple - I know some people would prefer more routing options, but I did try a lot of clever stuff and most of it sounded 'meh'. Of course there's nothing stopping you putting it in a combinator and going wild!
Yes - it's hard coded. IIRC it's one octave range, but would need to double check the code. You could always use an external envelope and the filter CV ins, or try pjeudy's technique of using an external filter.Benedict wrote:I am struggling to come to terms with the relationship between LP Cutoff and Filter Env. )
The centre frequency is always in-tune, and the 6 side frequencies detune as you move the mouse left / right. A detune per oscillator doesn't make much sense when dealing with supersaws. (Of course, stereo and analogue do change all the frequencies, but in cunning ways!).TheFesta wrote:Can anyone tell me how you detune the oscillators?
Be careful with your wording . Human mixes in a formant filter which is tuned to the 'ahhhhh' sound. I did try other vowels, but this is the one that worked best. Ideally you want a rich sound within the human vocal range (not too high or low).electrochoc (PRX-A) wrote:I'm very curious to try that "human" knob
The stereo algorithm is an on or off thing - because it works on frequencies, having it halfway would sound nasty. Of course you can turn down the stereo spread on the main mixer.pjeudy wrote:Had a stereo width knob or slider

Megasaur Supersaw synth now released Follow @DLDTechnology for new stuff!
I´ve been thinking what to render next (although I haven't done the keyboard-Snakebyte yet...).
But as I saw this, I feel my rendering-fingers tingling. Maybe this weekend I´ll sprout this out.

Please, If you can send me, that would help a lot. I had to google about Blender, never used that before.DLDTech wrote:I already have it in Blender format if that helps..
Could you open your file and save as .OBJ (and if possible, save a .FBX too, I´ll try which one opens the best)
And also, if you can provide, send me the texturemaps also.

This is becoming one of my favorites!
Perhaps I've come to realize how much I enjoy simplicity... And how much more productive I am when it comes to creating patches. My focus is often lost with synths jam-packed with features.
More like this please

Wow! Nice surprise. Great stuff. I'll be getting this for sure!
This synth is very nice and the supersaw oscillators sounds very good. And what is also very importand, the CPU usage is very low. Other synths with supersaws use much more CPU. I wish the Multi Osc from Thor would sound as good as this one.
The only things which are a little strange are the envelopes, which are not behaving as expacted. For me it would be importend to implement an envelope amount for the filter. The second thing is the LP filter which doesn't close fully.
At the moment this synth is very good for fat supersaw pads. For plucks it is not as good because of the missing filter amount and the strange envelope behavior.
I would be glade if this could be fixed in an update, then this synth would be one of my favorates in the reason rack.

Why not Megasawr?

If you click the saw count display, the custom display and sync gate color change!
Nice one DLD! I'm really having fun with this, sounds great, and some really nice features. Quite a diverse sound palette it can produce too for saying it's a simple synth.
Be sure not to overlook this one before or during the Black Friday sale!
Get a jump on checking it out while it's still on sale during November. Great synth!
