Blue Flamingo for Repro-5 released

April 15, 2025

Repro-5 lovers can now step into KYHON’s kaleidoscopic world with this off-the-wall selection of vintage synthesizer tones bursting with colour. Blue Flamingo spans 60 years of psychedelia, with many of the offerings evoking the golden era of the 1970s, but adding a modern edge.

The sounds blend childlike whimsy with psychedelic undertones, perfect for recreating the quirky atmospheres of a bygone era without appearing outdated or cheesy. Whether you’re scoring a retro film or chasing that elusive sonic charm, Blue Flamingo will inject a unique vibrancy into your music.


Tyrell N6 freeware synth comes home

March 18, 2025

After 15 years of distribution via Amazona (amazona.de), we are also hosting Tyrell N6 on this website. We've tweaked a few things so that Tyrell behaves well on current operating systems. We also took the opportunity to add the CLAP format, vastly improve VST3 implementation, and polish the factory preset library.

  • CLAP support (see www.cleveraudio.org)
  • Supports the latest macOS (Sequoia)
  • Supports native Apple Silicon
  • Improved VST3 support
  • Modern preset browser
  • Updated, simpler user guide
  • Better GUI performance
  • Revamped preset library
  • Soundset installation via drag&drop
  • Makeshift configuration section added
  • 50% & 60% GUI scaling options added
  • Support for MTS–ESP microtuning (Mac, Win, Linux)
  • User–definable MIDI CC control instead of Breath and Expression
  • VST2 > VST3 migration
  • Improved parameter automation in Pro Tools
  • Windows installer now comes with an uninstaller
  • … and more

Notes: AAX and CLAP are 64–bit only; macOS 32–bit support has been discontinued. Windows and Linux users should remove the original factory presets before updating.

Tyrell N6 is free!
