Sinnah (VST) is a unique synth based on a single complex oscillator that includes five wave shapes brought to you by NUSofting. This is the first freeware plugin from NUSofting we have used but it has made a lasting impression, we can’t wait to give their other plugins a test drive too.

Having only one oscillator might sound like a limitation but this plugin’s strength lies in its harmonics level, noise level controls for all wave shapes. However, the most interesting thing about Sinnah can be found in its delay matrix.

The delay matrix can have various configurations, from a “triple chorus” per voice to highly randomized resonators, or tuned relatively to the note played. The delay matrix can also do multiple slapback echoes.
The feedback control of the matrix can go from zero to extremely saturated and it’s modulated by its own envelope. The output of each voice is stereo via the delay matrix, which features a stereo spread knob.
The main analogue modelled ADSR envelope is loopable: two, three or continuous repeats.

The single oscillator is anti-aliased and can play eight voices or mono, and features standard transpose controls. The GUI is composed of vectors and is therefore resizable and can be conveniently moved around in your DAW of choice. With eight color schemes to boot! With mouseover ToolTip displays, you don’t need much trial and error to figure out how this plugin works.

Apart from the delay matrix, you pretty much have a standard VST plugin with relevant EQ, LFO and reverb controls. If you’re looking for a quick way to create evolving sounds with a lot of variation, Sinnah definitely deserves a place in your plugin library. Experimental sound artists or music producers looking for a VST which can produce unpredictable and dense soundscapes have a lot to gain from this and all for a grand total of zero in whatever your currency might be.
