Synths & effects

In OpenTracker 3, every synth engine and every master effect is a module. Each image compiles in a set of them. The sounds are our own design. Synths live in opentracker-synths, effects in opentracker-fx.

Patch counts are the patches in the 3.0.0 preview pack. Copy Patches/ from an image's patch zip to the root of the SD card, then use Load Patch on the Synth page.
