bespoke synth 1.0.0
available for mac, windows, and linux
hello! you are receiving this email because at some point, you signed up to receive notifications of when there is a new release of bespoke synth. thank you for your interest! the time has finally come for the 1.0.0 release: bespokesynth.com
back when I first set up this list one year ago, I expected to begin a cadence of monthly releases, making incremental progress on where bespoke was back then. I was naïve enough to believe that bespoke was in a developed enough state that it could be widely used at that point, but after watching a number of users bounce off of it, I realized that the lack of documentation and plethora of rough edges was making bespoke too inaccessible.
so, I decided to pull back from the incremental updates plan, and instead refocused on a massive overhaul, adding documentation, and sanding off those rough edges. in the process of documenting the past 10 years of modules I've written, I sure did find a lot of stuff to clean up! and so, here we are, one year later, with a much more complete-feeling version of bespoke, fully documented and with all dead-ends removed.
one of the most significant changes for new users in this release is the in-app documentation: tooltips that describe all 192 modules, and tooltips for each of the controls within them. 1,167 tooltips in all! I'm hopeful that this will greatly help new users to quickly gain a foothold in bespoke. the tooltips also provided a way for me to create automatic documentation for bespoke, which is accessible here: bespokesynth.com/docs
you can get bespoke 1.0.0 at bespokesynth.com
I also highly encourage you to join the bespoke synth discord at discord.gg/YdTMkvvpZZ to get support, form a community with other users, share techniques, and help me figure out which direction this thing should grow.
if you know anybody who you think would be interested in bespoke, please spread the word. one good way to do that would be by retweeting this announcement tweet:
happy patching!
