Working with Synth1 is like meeting an old friend. You know exactly what to expect from it, yet still it can surprise you with something new. I stated my whole music making hobby five years ago with this instrument. I even found my old presets, created in 2017, which I used in this track. Some of those sounds still couldn't be matched by commercial instruments. There is some magic behind the code of Synth1, especially in the effects section. I definitely could make a whole album with it.

And it also can make one of the most realistic electric guitar sounds (among free software).

39 instances of Synth1 used. Some instruments were created by layering two or more instances. All sounds from "initial sound".

Some commercial FX were used.
