Ask HN: Comment here about whatever you're passionate about at the moment
Good stuff!
I started getting in to this at the start of the year. Already had an old, dusty MicroKORG and MIDI interface to use it as a controller, but recently splashed out on a bigger controller as the Korg's tiny keys were hurting me - plus, I wanted something bigger to get better at piano!
A couple of free soft synths I'd recommend are Surge XT, and Vital.
-
what are some free, easy-to-use microtonal VSTs?
Surge (recently rebranded as Surge XT) is probably one of the most microtonal-friendly free synths out there.
-
What synthesizer to buy
Surge XT. Sort of like Microfreak and Hydrasynth.
-
Beginner - where to learn?
If you want more power, get https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/ . It covers a -lot- of ground and while I can't sing enough of its praises, it might still be pretty daunting.
-
I am wanting to learn to code a virtual instrument synthesizer, where should I start?
See if you can get Surge to compile on your machine; then try to add an oscillator and a filter.
- Good free plugins that you have found
-
Anyone know what this particular Synth sound is called? Or how I can recreate it? Very reminiscent of 90s hip hop
As for free options - Surge also has a 2-operator FM mode as a single oscillator.
-
Jazz/funk softsynth for beginner
https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/ has a ladder filter, and by following the structure of a Minimoog, you can approximate the sounds fairly closely, but that means going off the beaten path of factory presets and building your own.

LINUX PLUGINS THREAD (2022)
JuceOPL — a clean FM/additive synthesizer.
- chiptune synths
-
found a soundblaster emulator and decided to go town on it, enjoy!
I ended up using https://bsutherland.github.io/JuceOPLVSTi/ since it made composition way easier than messing around with tracker software. I haven't really looked into extracting the patches from the game, but i'm sure it's possible - it did have a jukebox mode after all.
