Classic racer with u-he engine
Freeware!
Tyrell is the name of a project by the German online magazine Amazona.de. A reader survey and follow-on forum posts provided a pool of ideas for a low cost HARDWARE analogue synth, which Mic 'Moogulator' Irmer used to develop quite a powerful concept. Based on a design similar to Roland's classic Juno 60, a few modules and novel features could be added without making the product too expensive...
However, it soon became obvious that developing the hardware would have taken years, so I offered to turn the core design into a freeware softsynth. That was late 2010. Only a few weeks later, TyrellN6 was already out for beta testing! After some serious bug-fixing and fine tuning, the final release version became available in April 2011.
