Complete function overview

Explore the instrument controls.

The features below describe the controls shown in the provided VST3 interface.

Attack

Adjusts how quickly a played note reaches its level after you press a key. Shorter attack settings produce a sharper start; longer settings create a gentler fade-in.

Filter cutoff

Shapes the brightness of the sound by adjusting the filter cutoff frequency. Lower values generally produce a more subdued tone; higher values retain more high-frequency detail.

Resonance

Emphasises frequencies around the filter cutoff, allowing you to add character and a more pronounced filter effect to a sound.

Release

Sets how the volume fades after a note is released. Shorter release values end notes more quickly; longer values allow a smoother tail.

On-screen keyboard

The piano-style keyboard displays the available notes, while the octave controls let you navigate the keyboard range. MIDI performance is handled by your compatible host DAW.

Live waveform display

The built-in oscilloscope-style panel visualises the generated audio signal, giving you immediate visual feedback while exploring the instrument.

Kombinuid V1.2.0

Kombinuid is a free Windows 64-bit VST3 hybrid synthesizer that combines all five instruments featured in the RealSynth.NET Legacy Archive into one modern plugin: OctaVirus, Phazuid V3, Phazuid V4, Pianguid and Synthdruid.

Originally programmed around 20 years ago, those individual plugins have been officially discontinued and withdrawn from the active product lineup. Kombinuid brings their heritage together with six oscillator sections, layered sound design, a piano layer, modulation, envelopes and built-in effects.

From the original archive to one hybrid instrument

Five discontinued classics. One freeware instrument.

Kombinuid combines the instrument concepts of OctaVirus, Phazuid V3, Phazuid V4, Pianguid and Synthdruid in a single VST3 instrument. The originals were created around 20 years ago. They are now officially discontinued, removed from the active product range and no longer offered or supported as separate plugins.

You can still explore their original interfaces in the Legacy Archive. That archive is for historical reference only; the currently published freeware instrument is Kombinuid V1.2.0.

Complete function overview

Explore Kombinuid.

The supplied screenshot shows a rich hybrid instrument with multiple synthesis sections and performance-oriented controls.

Multi-oscillator engine

Six oscillator slots provide the core sound source, each with selectable waveforms, octave controls, fine tuning and individual level settings.

Five classic instruments united

All five archived RealSynth.NET plugins—OctaVirus, Phazuid V3, Phazuid V4, Pianguid and Synthdruid—are brought together in Kombinuid. The original individual plugins are discontinued and no longer supported.

Mixer section

A dedicated mixer lets you balance the level of multiple oscillator sources before they reach the filter, effects and master output.

Filter & phase shaping

The filter section provides type selection and direct control over cutoff, resonance and tracking. A phase switch and graph offer additional timbral shaping.

Modulation, envelopes & FX

Use the modulation section, ADSR envelope controls and the built-in delay, reverb and phaser-style processing to shape movement and space.

Piano layer & keyboard

A separate piano layer expands the palette with tone, hammer, stereo and level settings, while the full keyboard and blend controls support performance and layering.

Presets, Save & Load

Explore ready-made pumping presets, and use the visible Save and Load controls for custom settings.
