· Modular interface.
· Highly optimized synth algorithms.
· Flexible architecture: SunVox can working on various devices. For example: PDA with slow CPU - 16bit sound (fixed point arithmetic); or big PC with powerful CPU: 32bit sound (floating point arithmetic).
· Export to WAV.
Built-in synthesizers:
· FM synthesizer;
· Generator (saw,triangle,square,noise waveforms);
· Sampler (supported formats: WAV, XI);
· SpectraVoice (FFT-based synthesizer for analog-like pads);
· Kicker;
· Stereo Delay;
· Distortion;
· Echo;
· Filter (Low-pass, High-pass, Band-pass, Notch);
· Vocal Filter;
· Flanger;
· LFO;
· Loop;
· Reverb (with DC Blocking Filter).
