Floozy

Selectable 1-8 voice (default 4) synthesizer combining distortion sources, physical-model-style excitation, feedback, filtering, modulation, and reverb.

Bundle: floozy.vst3
Role: Hybrid physical/modulation synth

Opinion

This thing is rather eccentric, the controls not altogether intuitive. But it can produce a wide range of sounds, some of them really good.

Functionality

Floozy is a playable stereo instrument derived from floozy-poly. It exposes source algorithm, interface/body model, quantized body tuning, feedback, filter, modulation, reverb, and output controls while keeping the voice engine deterministic and bounded.

Pitch bend is applied per MIDI channel (2 semitones by default, set per channel with RPN 0) and voices are keyed by channel and note, so it follows the one-note-per-channel output of Retune.

Status

This can make many useful sounds but it is a little hit & miss trying to find them.
