OctaSine VS Warp

Since I last posted here, I've implemented multiple features for OctaSine, a free and open source frequency modulation synth plugin (VST2, CLAP), some of which were heavily requested.

I just released version 0.8.2 of OctaSine, my free and open source frequency modulation synth (source code on GitHub). It is available as a VST2 plugin for macOS, Windows and Linux.

Then I'd heavily recommend trying out a free FM synth VST before spending any money ;). Dexed is popular, but maybe a bit too much (6 operators), this one or this one might be a bit easier (4 operators) - and your DAW probably already has its own FM synth, like Abletons Operator or FL Studios Sytrus.

OctaSine. The dev posts updates on r/synthesizers regularly.

I just released a version 0.8.0 of my free and open source FM (frequency modulation) VST synth OctaSine. The main improvements are:

I would like to add it, but not having Apple Silicon hardware to test it makes it more complicated. If you create an issue in the GitHub repository, you will get an email if I add it.

OctaSine, a digital frequency modulation synthesizer

I am the developer of aquatic, a BitTorrent tracker with world-leading performance, and OctaSine, a frequency modulation digital synthesizer (both written in Rust).

I have been working in Rust for about 4 years, mainly as the developer of aquatic and OctaSine and as a contributor to baseview. I have prior experience in web development using technologies such as actix-web, TypeScript, React, Django and PostgreSQL.

I'm trying out Warp for the first time, and an immediate accessibility issue for me is that the text is simply too small to read for a lot of the UI elements (context menu, side bar, tab bar…). The size should be configurable for all of the elements, not just the terminal view. I think I would also be fine with a setting that just scales the whole UI.

I did notice there is an issue for it already: https://github.com/warpdotdev/Warp/issues/1443

Warp is a Rust-based terminal with AI built in. I like it because it has things like autocompletions, history search, click-to-edit, and theming out-of-the-box. Feels super modern. And if you do want to try it out, use my referral link & get a free theme!)

Unless you want to type this every day, I’d recommend creating an alias. In my case, I’m using Warp, so I’ll right-click the command and choose Save as Workflow to save my script as a workflow. Warp AI will even help me autofill the title and description and detect variables.

This makes me wonder about newer terminal emulators on maccOS like Warp[1], and if they're for example taking all input locally, and then sending it over the remote host in a single blob or not? I imagine doing so would possibly break any sort of raw-mode input being done on remote host but I'd also imagine that is a detectable situation in which you could switch into a raw keystroke feed as well.

Warp - GPT in the terminal - very helpful for debugging

You're right, I just found the discussion there (and it's the longest one currently). For now, I just run tmux inside the emulator.
