Hi. Here is another synth i have been working on. Its a monophonic virtual analog. What? Yes it is. I might add more voices in the future. Anyway i was inspired by the architecture of the MiniMoog, although it is not an emulation of said synthesizer. I do hope you like it.
Oscillators, lfos and envelopes is by Martin Vicanek.
Black background by Kevin Brown.

Great good looking synth, Halon. Thanks for sharing. It throws you into moog mood from the first time you open it

sounds fantastic as well. It needs a small GUI touch (with those white lines), but nothing serious. Thanks.

Thank you kortezzz.

About the white lines, what exactly do you mean?

There is a white line there that crosses the text ("keyb ctrl", "filter mod"). I think it should be cut so it won't touch the text. Also the white line that located at the left side of the mixer and the rm knobs is not really necessary in my opinion. the mercury logo also can be decreased a little to fit it's canvas.
By the way, I opened it in the 64bit alfa (my 3.0.6 is out of order) and saw that there is irregular trigger activity even when no note is played (about 390,000 triggers per sec). I don't know if it considered as reasonable trigger behavior for such a synth, but seems quite high to me (for example my synth has about 2000\sec triggers activity in idile). Maybe some can shed some light?
