Big Fish

We have set another exciting step on the road to Big Fish. This is our multi-year project of the beautiful synthesizer that Stijn has been dreaming of.
We envision four user layers: DSP programming, synth design, sound design and making music. Meaning you can be building the blocks, arranging the blocks, tweaking the blocks and making the blocks go beep. You can also ignore the layers that you are not interested in and just have a good time with your Big Fish.
BigFish four levels:
- Musicians – making music with Big Fish as it is
- Sound designers – making sounds in Big Fish presets
- Synth designers – making new synths modular style
- Programmers – making DSP to makes synths in Big Fish

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. Big Fish also uses ideas from the Block system of modular software synths that Stijn built and used to teach Audio Design with at a university for many years. This Big Fish will be built again from the fins up but it has been a long time coming.
BINK KEYBED
Our Big Fish plans needed a keybed with synth-sensibilities that we cannot buy anywhere and so we are going to build this keybed ourselves, while also making this keybed available for other synth builders. We are making this new BINK keybed together with Binkhorst Creations in our new Unit 11 factory and office space.

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.
