I like the toggle switches in the bottom most image as that makes sense for phase 'flip'. The black/graphite look is the clearest to date imo. It also has my favorite for your large knobs. Offset knobs would probably look good on the black too, with the brass/copper as is. Now just for some metal switches =]

Latest version with Scene swapping etc. I tried to upload the exe+dlls, but again: file-size too large. If someone needs the Teensy environment, I can send the complete library (about 30MB).

I removed the qt dlls from the zip file, maybe the upload works now. See latest post with zips.

For the GUI you need the app (comes as Hydra-Pro.zip). The files go to c:\users\<user>\appdata\roaming (c or whatever your home disk is), You need also the Qt runtime dlls, which are too big to be posted here. Either send me your email per message or valis will post them.
The previously posted vst (harmgen.zip), which goes into your vst dir.

For Teensy harmgen you need the teensy dsp source (the name is the same as the vst zip, sorry about that). Again, you need also the teesny audio lib, which is also too big to be posted here.

(you can download Qt 5.11 VS2017 and install the Qt dlls in above user-dir.

I can bump up the upload size again, but it's a global setting (without major mods to phpbb) and I'd prefer to keep it under control for now.

Have you considered something like gumroad? You can use it both as a distribution platform for this and to take donations from users to help support your progress. While I wouldn't insist on this, I always enjoy seeing cohorts grow their pursuits into something more fruitful and gumroad seems to work well for a lot of creators online who are either starting out or comfortable leaving something as a side gig.

Thanks for the advice. Everything's now uploaded to gumroad:

Now you can post when you do have updates, but only the most recent updated files will be exposed to your users. We should also clean up this thread a bit and put that link into the parent post. I can handle the attachments if you want.

And be aware that you can set a zero price and still accept higher values too, though I wouldn't balk at supporting you with $5

Setting a zero price will reduce the allowed size to 28MB, which is less than required. So I removed the 2 dll/library zips, which are open source anyway and available elsewhere. Please have a look at the gumroad page.

Apologies for disappearing, schedule shifted. Didn’t know about the size limits for free on gumroad, that’s interesting.

Woah, is that something that sits in the editor, or that is in the Synth code?!

An “Altoids sized” Teensy/Shruti in a little box would be very badass application.

In the Editor. Teensy 3.6 is not powerful enough to support more than 1 voice at the moment.
Shruti in context:
