Surge 1.8 Update

Recommended Posts

We're happy to release Surge 1.8 today!

You can find downloads, an updated manual, and the full changelog at

https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/

1.8 has hundreds of new features and fixes, but headlines of the release are:

* New skins, including the lovely "Royal Surge" skin and greatly improved Classic and Dark skins.

* New filters, with multiple new filter models, some from other popular open source synths and some unique to Surge.

* A complete implementation of a multi-segment envelope generator (MSEG) as a modulation source.

* A large number of Airwindows FX available in the FX chain

* A bunch of amazing new content! We now have more than 2000 presets in the library!

Surge 1.8 has been the result of 6 months of work by a group of volunteers. Thanks

to all the people who contributed and tested. Over 2021, we have plans to continue

working on Surge and other adjacent projects - stay tuned for more exciting new

things as the year progresses.

We think we've tested the software pretty extensively, but all software has bugs, and

we are hobbyist volunteers. So if you find something wrong please let us know on

here or github.

And finally if you'd like to be part of the team working on Surge, feel free to join

us over on Discord! We are always looking for people to help with testing, programming (especially

experienced C++ devs), design, and more.

Enjoy making music with Surge!
