FKFX Launches FREE KrishnaSynth Legacy Synthesizer

January 31, 2023By William Frady20 Comments
KrishnaSynth Legacy

FKFX relaunched KrishnaSynth Legacy, a modernized version of the KrishnaSynth virtual synthesizer plugin initially released by Devine Machine Software in 2007. The new Legacy plugin is available in Free and Full editions.

Revisiting plugins of yesteryear rarely holds the same promise and potential as something like your old guitars or hardware synths. However, there is undoubtedly some merit to revisiting the timbres of the past, and FKFX looked back to the year 2007 for their most recent release.

KrishnaSynth is back from the dead, with Silicon binaries and 64-bit support. For those seeking a refresher or a small history lesson, KrishnaSynth was originally a paid synth nearing 16 years of age from its initial release. KrishnaSynth has a novel approach to generating sound, not too dissimilar to a wavetable synthesizer.

At the core of the synth is the frame oscillator, capable of importing audio and allowing you to draw your own waveforms. There is a slew of effects to further shape the oscillator’s sound. Things like mirroring or PWM inversion make for an odd dose of prescience when looking forward to Serum and its many imitators.

The other two oscillators are bog standard affairs, generating your typical analog waveforms. These work well for incorporating a little more foundation and strength into the frame oscillator.

Modulation is also significantly ahead of its time, considering FKFX has modernized the synth but not reinvented it. The six drawable LFOs can be dragged to any parameter you wish, and a selection of separate envelopes can also be pointed to additional parameters.

Filtering is probably KrishnaSynth’s weakest area, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s lacking. It certainly hails before the era of zero delay feedback filtering models, but it works well for cleaning up the signal. Resonance isn’t stepped, and filter sweeps sound absolutely divine on the right sources.

Watch the video below for a quick step-by-step guide on installing KrishnaSynth Legacy.

KrishnaSynth is available in two different flavors, a slimmed-down free package that offers up the 1000 or so presets of the original and a good amount of sound crafting potential. The paid version allows for the import of audio files to the frame oscillator and is available for a reasonable $49.99.

Windows and Mac systems are both supported. Windows users only have the option of VST3, and Mac users get VST3 and AU plugin formats. There are M1-compatible binaries.
