DA-80 - free 4 osc analog synth plugin
DA-80 is a 4 oscillator, 8 voice analog synthesizer with a modulation matrix.

The DA stands for Dirty Analog. Sonically DA-80 can produce analog style sounds similar to Oberheim and Sequential Circuits classics.

The concept was to add noise to the oscillators right at the start.

Let the noise vary from a random undulation to straight pink noise. Compress the wave shape just a little then pass it through a selection of filters that vary from polite to unruly. Offer lots of modulation sources and destinations.

I've recently re-installed this old vst and after 10 minutes of playing around with it, I am reminded why it is one of my favorite freeware synths. It's a lot of fun tweaking this synth.I am only able to get angry sounds out of this thing but I am sure that it can probably also make nice sounds in the right hands.

This is a solid VA, with 3 different filter caracters! This thing is easy to use but versatile and the sound is also pretty good! not an Arturia product but very solid :)

Good GUI and (most importantly) good, clear sound!
