This is the free version of Astralis Orgone which is Orgone with a reduced feature set. See the main orgone page for full Orgone info. It is free and fully functional and a feature packed synth in its own right. It is limited to a single synth as opposed to the 2 in Orgone and is locked to use a set of 25 samples. It includes 128 presets and the diversity of sound created from those 25 samples, demonstrates the power of the Astralis System.
The synth is free to use but donations are always appreciated and help me buy time to build/improve more instruments.
