1 ZYNADDSUBFX(1) 2 ============== 3 :doctype: manpage 4 5 NAME 6 ---- 7 zynaddsubfx - a software synthesizer 8 9 SYNOPSIS 10 -------- 11 *zynaddsubfx* ['OPTIONS'] 12 13 DESCRIPTION 14 ----------- 15 16 *zynaddsubfx* is a polyphonic multimbral synthesizer, which supports three 17 synthesis engines and numerous effects to generate sound. 18 19 1) ADsynth generates sounds by adding a number of voices. 20 Each voice has filters, envelopes, LFOs, morphing, modulation 21 (Ring Modulation, Phase Modulation... the modulators can have any 22 shape), resonance, etc... 23 Each voice includes a waveform generator with up to 128 sine/non-sine 24 harmonics. 25 You can use Fourier synthesis or if you don't like it you 26 can wave-shaping/filtering of functions. 27 28 2) SUBsynth is a simple engine which makes sounds through 29 harmonic filtering of white noise 30 31 3) PADsynth is an engine that makes very beautiful pads and other instruments, 32 which can be exported for use with other programs. 33 34 Midi and audio support exists for OSS, ALSA, JACK, and others... 35 36 OPTIONS 37 ------- 38 39 *-h, --help*:: 40 Display command-line help and exit 41 *-v, --version*:: 42 Display version and exit 43 *-l, --load=FILE*:: 44 Loads a .xmz file 45 *-L, --load-instrument*=FILE:: 46 Loads a .xiz file 47 *-r --sample-rate*=SR:: 48 Set the sample rate SR 49 *-b, --buffer-size*=SR:: 50 Set the buffer size, which determines the granularity of how often parameter 51 changes can be applied 52 *-o, --oscil-size*=OS:: 53 Set the ADsynth oscillator size 54 *-S, --swap*:: 55 Swap Left and Right output channels 56 *-D, --dump*:: 57 Dumps midi note ON/OFF commands 58 *-U, --no-gui*:: 59 Run ZynAddSubFX without user interface 60 *-N, --named*=Name:: 61 Postfix IO Name when possible 62 *-a, --auto-connect*:: 63 AutoConnect when using JACK 64 *-O, --output*=engine:: 65 Set Output Engine 66 *-I, --input*=engine:: 67 Set Input Engine 68 *-e, --exec-after-init*=command:: 69 Run post-initialization script.
