Woodman’s Immaculate Maple Syrup Studio let us know that they’ve released WoodSynth 4.0,  a major update to their software synthesizer for MacOS & iOS.

Here’s what’s new in WoodSynth 4.0:

• New Tube Oscillator type
  • They say this works completely different than the digital oscillators and gives a very “analog” sound.
  • Drive, bias and tube type parameters let you smoothly change harmonics and waveform from sine wave to square wave.
  • Optional integrator circuit after the oscillator can generate sawtooth waveforms.
  • The drive control can be modulated by the oscillator’s LFO, by the Aux ADSR or by MIDI input (pressure, aftertouch, mod wheel and CC74).
  • Tolerance control which influences individual note detuning.
• New convolution reverb
  • Reverb Send can be modulated by the general LFO’s and by keyboard pressure/aftertouch.
  • Reverb parameters now have their own UI panel.
  • Reverb now has its own HPF, LPF and Saturation.
• Added Samples per note: allows sampled instruments like drums, piano, etc.
  • Notes without a sample have several modes to generate sound from an existing sample.
• Added new Preset Browser.
• Added SetList : a small list of presets with midi PC values starting from 0 and up.
• Added manual triggering of the sequencer (live playing, see section 6.1.9 …).
• Sequencer can now show the note values in stead of only semitone values.
• ML (midi learn) now indicates when a midi CC is already used.
• Added 10+ presets.

WoodSynth 4.0 is available now for $15.99 USD for iOS and $79.99 for macOS.
