Of course, again for free and the open-source developer community has once again pumped the Surge XT full of new features and improvements. Update 1.3.0 is now available for download. Just before Christmas, the developers gave Surge XT another impressive update. So massive that it surpasses certain commercial synths in functionality.
Thanks to a large community, Surge XT has been massively expanded in recent years. Long dead as a commercial synth, revived as a free synth plugin.
A prime example is the Surge or now Surge XT Synthesizer. But some have been given a second life thanks to a re-release as a free open-source plugin. Many plugins died because they no longer received updates. In order for synthesizers, effects… plugins to work again, they need to be updated. You usually benefit from the new features via updates or by installing a completely new version. Operating systems are constantly being further developed. Surge XT 1.3.0 is out now and is another impressive update for the open-source free multi-engine Synthesizer plugin for mac, Linux, and win.
