Diodow is a unique digital modeling synth.
This synthesizer is mostly unconventional, some features (which most users take for granted) could be missing or could look rather strange, user interface may not be everybody's cup of tea and there are no presets, but it is capable of delivering its own kind of sounds and textures.

Yet another programmer that just wasted his time. I dislike plug-ins that allow one preset loaded at a time and it's not even VST3. I wrote a "random" preset generator for it and all sounds coming from it are clinical. It cannot be used for ordinary musical sounds because sometimes it goes off on its own before it's triggered, and it could also ignore any attempt to shut it up. It tempo-locks the LFO's very well, thank you for that at least! Cannot use your own samples into the oscillators, want to morph and sync with that? The sound it produces often causes clicks which won't go well with the "popular music police". The delay is in mono. Never used two delays at a time or serial routing because I wasn't arsed. Could set delay feedback greater than one but just don't do it and... just don't download this. Maybe his payware plug-in was *much better* but I don't care.
All right, I'll correct myself about importing samples. I had to debug my program. This wins for text-file format instead of FXP or something else that almost has to be reverse-engineered. But I think even better presets could be created and it would have been great if this supported at least a bank of eight. Loading one preset at a time looking for a particular sound is tiresome.

Nice sound but gui isn't that great. Maybe a skin button for the next version? Would be nice. Yeah the colors are hurting my eyes.

Amazing synth for advanced sound design
(5 / 5)
An Amazing VST with lots of depth, not for the faint hearted preset player, but for those who like a sound design challenge this is a great sounding VST and several hours of programming will be well rewarded!
