ANALOGySAW Super Saw Synth (AUv3) ANALOGySAW is a virtual instrument plugin that can run standalone, or in any AU compatible host such as Logic Pro or GarageBand. Please note that the standalone version does not include a built-in keyboard - you need to connect a suitable MIDI device to play the synth. Overview ANALOGySAW is a tribute to the "super saw" digital synths from the 90's, wrapped up in old-school virtual-analog warmth, with a few "ANALOGy" twists. Featuring up to five unison saw wave oscillators per voice, and ten voice polyphony (*) with detune, drift and stereo spread options, ANALOGySAW might be your new favourite mini synth for big STEREO atmospheric pads, or dreamy EDM textures. Breaking from the "super saw" tradition, the number of unison oscillators for a voice is continuously variable between one and five, allowing for some interesting "in-between" sounds not available on other synths. Spread is applied to the unison oscillators so every note you play can have a big stereo image, and ten note polyphony remains consistent regardless of the number of unison oscillators. The virtual analog vibe is also well represented with randomised drift for the voice oscillators and modulation LFOs. ANALOGySAW also breaks slightly from the "ANALOGy" family tradition by offering a full ADSR amp envelope, a 24dB "ladder" filter, and a separate modulation section with dedicated LFOs for pitch and filter modulation, plus filter envelope. (*) About Voices and Oscillators Sometimes these terms are interchanged in a confusing way, especially in the case of super-saw synths. For ANALOGySAW, a voice corresponds to a note that you play, and you can play up to ten notes before "voice stealing" occurs. Each voice has up to five oscillators each, so you can think of ANALOGySAW as a 50 oscillator synth! MIDI Implementation ANALOGySAW is a 10 voice polyphonic velocity-sensitive MIDI instrument and is playable over a keyboard range from A0 (21) to C7 (96) on any MIDI channel. ANALOGySAW also responds to mod wheel, expression / volume (CC#11), sustain (CC#64), all notes off (CC#123) and pitch-bend (+/- 2 semitones). About The UI Not everyone likes the UIs of my latest (2025) plugins - I get it. However, the simplistic and generic approach allows me to (a) 99% focus on the DSP, sound quality and CPU performance, and (b) significantly reduce the development (and potential maintenance) time, which is reflected in my pricing.

This would be especially noticeable at the start of MIDI tracks in DAWs. ### 1.0.1 — 2025-09-28 Fixed parameter label padding / border issue on iPad (purely cosmetic). Added a few new factory presets.
