The desktop audio/video studio

a.k.a. SynFactory II


What is StudioFactory

StudioFactory provides a complete virtual audio studio on your computer. It has a very powerfull virtual analog modular synthesizer based on an improved version of the SynFactory synthesis engine. StudioFactory is fully compatible with SynFactory and can load all existing patch files. The synthesis engine is extended with additional modules that give access to MIDI and audio input. This makes it possible to play sounds generated by StudioFactory with an external MIDI-keyboard. With the audio input StudioFactory can be used as an standalone effect processor and provides reverb, echo and vocoder effects (listen to these two file for examples of the vocoding capabilities vocoder.mp3 vocoder2.mp3).

Other features are currently still in development.

Version 0.44 is ready!

Is there a StudioFactory for Linux/MacOs/BeOS etc?

Short answer: No

Longer answer: I'm working on a port to Linux using Qt for the graphics. Sound will probably be ALSA based, but I might support other soundservers too.

As Qt is available for many platforms, it might be possible to port StudioFactory to other OSes more easily too. If you have experience with programming under Qt, ALSA, (Gtk ?) or Linux and want to help with the port, let me know!
