This is the BIG one. The big project that all other projects have been leading to. This is our multi-year project of the beautiful synthesizer that Stijn has been dreaming of for a very long time.

This project has been about 20 years in the making and started with Stijn making GoldFish, PlatinumFish and SpaceFish; his guilty pleasure synthesizer plug-ins in Jeskola-Buzz. BigFish also uses ideas from the Blok system of modular software synths that Stijn built and used to teach Audio Design with at a university for many years. This BigFish will be built again from the fins up but it has been a long time coming.

BigFish Four
We envision 4 levels of making with this modular synthesizer: making music, making sound, making synth and making DSP.  Meaning you can be building the blocks, arranging the blocks, tweaking the blocks and making the blocks go beep. You can also ignore any layers that you are not interested in and just have a good time with your BigFish.
1. Musicians – making music with BigFish as it is – playing with the many beautiful onboard sounds
2. Sound designers – making sounds with BigFish presets – tweaking the love
3. Synth designers – making new synthseziers modular style – onboard modular software synth
4. Programmers – making DSP to makes synths in BigFish – onboard and under the hood – math making music

All this is going to take a while but we are well underway and a gentle estimate for the release of Big Fish might be in May 2027.

BINK KEYBED
Our BigFish plans needed a keybed with synth-sensibilities that do not exist anywhere and so we are building this keybed ourselves. We will also make this keybed available for other synth builders so the whole world can play with it. We are making this new Bink keybed together with Binkhorst Creations in our new Unit 11 factory and office space.
