Signal Flow

How a note travels through AccSyn, from MIDI in to audio out. AccSyn is monophonic, so there is a single signal path — no voice allocation. Note that the oscillator mixer comes before the amplifier and filter.

Block diagram of the Accidental Synthesizer signal path, from the virtual and hardware MIDI inputs, through the four oscillators, per-oscillator boost, oscillator mixer, amplifier and filter, then the twelve effects in order, to the output stage and audio device.

The effects are laid out in the same three rows as the Effects tab, and they process in that order — left to right, top to bottom. For what each control does, see Controls.
