u-he dropped the official release of Zebralette 3 as freeware and opened up the first public beta for Zebra 3. The free synth pulls one oscillator from the bigger Zebra 3 setup and wraps it in a stripped-down environment with ADSR and MSEG envelopes, two LFOs, a six-slot mod matrix, and delay plus reverb effects. Waveform editing uses spline-based tools borrowed from vector apps, and the oscillator lets you morph between curves on a timeline while switching between traditional waves and additive synthesis.
The beta version has been floating around for a while, but this new release cuts CPU usage significantly. You can export curve sets as wavetables in WAV format for other synths like Hive if you want.
The Zebra 3 beta keeps the wireless modular layout with grid-based patching, but everything runs on new code. The synth packs spline-based oscillators, FM options, physical modeling tools like modal resonators and comb filters, plus complex MSEGs and mapper modules that can act like sequencers with up to 128 values.
