Instruments • SWAY - a synth modeled after the Yamaha SY77

I'm creating a synth that's meant to emulate the Yamaha SY77. The goal is to make it 100% SysEx compatible and sounding as close as possible to the real thing. I've pretty much got all the internals working, apart from the effects section.

I'm now in the process of measuring all parameters of a TG77 and making sure they are modeled correctly. I'm close to having done everything related to the AWM2 module. The AFM module is next. Finally I'll have to implement the effects section, but I'll probably release a beta version before that.

The synth can load the preset SY55/SY77 sample ROMs and Wavecard expansions if the files are present in the right directory, but I can't bundle them with the plugin for obvious reasons. I'm making a custom sample ROM instead so I can ship it with presets that use more than just the FM module.
