It couldn't be easier, and the connections you make this way are even added to the Mod Matrix automatically. Like many of the other synths, Diversion allow you to easily right-click/control-click parameters to easily MIDI learn them, but you can also assign modulations this way! For example, if you want to modulate OSC1's filter cutoff with an LFO, you simply right-click and choose the LFO from the “add modulation” menu.
There's also loads of modulators like 4 LFOs, 4 Envelopes, and 4 multi-stage envelopes that can be used as sequencers. When sending a sound through non-linear processes like distortions, aliasing (unwanted digital artifacts) can occur… Diversion has you covered here by sending your sounds through an up to 8X oversampling process keeping the sound crisp and clean (at the expense of CPU power however). These busses not only contain multi-mode filters, but distortion and “lo-fi” effects too. Another cool feature I haven't seen in any synth is a built-in recorder that allows you to play a sound in Diversion, record it, then utilize that recording as a wave in any of the oscillators!? Each oscillator in Diversion has its own separate multi-mode filter too, and/or you can apply a filter globally to all via 2 separate busses. When using a sample oscillator, you can adjust the start and end points and even load in your own custom samples. When using wavetable oscillators, there's an editor that allows you to literally draw in the waveform. Its 4 FM/RM oscillators allow you to choose from many virtual, sample-based, and wavetable types. Circle excels at nearly any type of sound you can image, and because of its highly visual way of programming, it's also a very fun synth to use.ĭiversion by Dmitry Sches is the new synth on the block. There's even a separately downloaded application that allows you to create your own wavetable shapes (from your own samples) for use in Circle. Each oscillator can actually hold two wavetable shapes that can be morphed/frequency modulated by one another. Each of the 4 oscillators can be put into an analog mode that gives you your standard waves like saw, triangle and square, but when in wavetable mode, you have a huge selection of sample-based waves. For example, you can actually watch the envelopes play out (a small dot moves along them over time). There are no “cables” in Circle's design like you'd see on other modular instruments… Circle uses colored dots on the various modules that you literally “drag and drop” to the parameter(s) you want to modulate. Its semi-modular design allows you to enable or disable various modules like multi-mode filters, LFOs, envelopes, sequencers and distortions.
FAW Circle is a sound designer's dream synth.
