FREE SYNTH: NILS' KAWAI K1v (Kawai K1 Emulator) - No talking demo
video upload by ADL-MusicLab
"Hello everyone!
Here's to you my "No talking demo" of this FREE emulation of the Kawai K1 synthesizer developed by Nils Schneider, which brings back to life this iconic synthesizer!
The Kawai K1 is a famous japanese classic from 1988 and it was a massive success with both the critics and the public. The company managed to reportedly shift around 50,000 of them. There also was a rackmount version (K1r) and a tabletop option (K1m).
The key to its popularity was certainly down to its sound, which combined single-cycle additive waves with PCM samples. There was another reason though: in the late 80's this D-50-style sample synthesis was out of reach of most musicians, but then the Kawai K1 came along and it was much cheaper than the Roland D-50!
Now you can have it in your DAW with this amazing FREE software emulation!
Zebra 3 – Out now!

"Zebra 3 has arrived! Building on everything we learned from Zebra2, it adds powerful new modules and pushes Zebra’s renowned workflow even further. We also overhauled the user interface during beta, making it more streamlined and user-friendly. Dive in, explore, and experiment!"

Anukari: A 3D Physics-modeling synthesizer
video upload by CatSynth TV
"We take a deep dive into the world of 3D physics-modeling synthesis with Anukari, which we first discovered at #NAMM earlier this year. This instrument allows you to manipulate masses, springs, various excitation sources (including external audio) and pick up the vibrations of the objects with microphones. It's a very different way of creating sounds than the typical software synthesizer, and presents unique possibilities. This approach also has unique challenges, and takes a while to learn and longer to master. Fortunately, there are a lot of great presets and templates to get you started.

Ocean Swift Introduces Sound Creator Suite - tools for sound-design and instrument development
The Ultimate Sound Designer & Developer Toolkit: Sound Creator Suite Walkthrough | Ocean Swift video upload by Ocean Swift / Faxi Nadu
https://oceanswift.net/product/sound-creator-suite/
"Welcome to a complete walkthrough of the Ocean Swift - Sound Creator Suite. In this video, we take a high-level tour of the entire application, showing you not just what the tools do, but how they work in concert to provide a centralized host environment for virtual instrument developers, sample pack creators, and sound designers.
Whether you are automating hardware sampling, building custom UI components, or formatting vast preset libraries, this suite handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on the creative process.
What we cover in this walkthrough:
Global Settings & The Log Viewer: A look at the suite's foundation, including audio/MIDI routing, Kontakt developer integration , and the built-in, thread-safe Log Viewer capable of maintaining a 10,000-line history.
Audio Batch Processing & Sampling: How to recursively process thousands of audio files , mathematically align loops using MIR technology , and automate external hardware sampling via MIDI and threshold detection.
The Wavetable Ecosystem: A brief look at building wavetables from scratch with the Creator, extracting them from audio files, and converting formats across various software synthesizers.
MIDI & OSC Routing: Bridging the gap between your hardware, digital audio workstations, and modular environments like TouchDesigner.
UI Generation & NKS Workflow: From rendering 3D knobs into sprite sheets to batch-injecting metadata into Native Instruments NKS presets and standard audio samples."
Build Kontakt Instruments Faster: WYSIWYG UI Editor & Prefabs | Ocean Swift Sound Creator Suite
video upload by
"In this in-depth walkthrough, we dive into the Kontakt Performance View tool, a powerful standalone WYSIWYG editing environment within the Ocean Swift Sound Creator Suite. If you build instruments for Native Instruments Kontakt, this tool bridges the gap between technical JSON editing and intuitive visual design.We cover the entire workflow, from initial setup to complex UI layout, showing you how to design without writing a single line of layout code. What you will learn in this video:Integration & Setup: How to use the suite's settings to launch Kontakt as an isolated child process. Automated NKS Creation: Watch the tool automatically generate the strict NKS folder hierarchy and silently execute a Lua script to create your base .nki and .nkr container files. Live WYSIWYG Editing: Explore the hardware-accelerated preview canvas that provides a near 1:1 visual representation of your UI.Drag & Drop Design: See how to physically drag controls across the canvas , use grab handles for free-resizing , and utilize the alignment menu to perfectly center, top, or bottom-align multiple UI elements instantly.
Advanced Tree & Property Inspector: Learn how to manage the exact structural hierarchy of your UI. We show you how to use Alt+Click to instantly select a Panel and all nested child controls , and how to edit multiple parameters safely using the dynamic property inspector.
Instant UI Prefabs: Discover how to recursively scan your resources folder to drop complex, pre-configured .nckc UI elements directly into your project in seconds.
