Digital Beauty. Surge is a digital synth and makes no bones about it.

If you have used it in the past, it will be like welcoming an old friend back into your life. If you are new to Surge, welcome to the party. Come on in, the water is fine.
Synthesis method: Subtractive hybrid
Each patch contain two 'scenes' which are separate instances of the entire synthesis engine (except effects) that can be used for layering or split patches.

FACTORY SOUNDS
1010 patches

183 wavetables

OSCILLATORS
3 oscillators per voice

8 versatile oscillator algorithms: Classic, Sine, Wavetable, Window, FM2, FM3, S/H Noise and Audio input

The classic oscillator is a morphable pulse/saw/dual saw oscillator with a sub-oscillator and self-sync.

The FM2/FM3 oscillators consists of a carrier and 2 or 3 modulators and various options.

Most algorithms (except FM2, FM3, Sine and Audio-input) offer up to 16-voice unison at the oscillator level.

Oscillator FM/ring modulation

Most oscillator algorithms (except FM2/FM3) are strictly band-limited, yet still cover the entire audible spectrum, delivering a clear punchy yet clean sound.

Noise generator with variable spectrum.

FILTER BLOCK
Two filter units in 8 different configurations

Feedback loop (number of variations inside the parenthesis)

Available filter algorithms: LP12 (3 variations), LP24 (3 variations), LP Ladder (1-4 poles), HP12 (3 variations), HP24 (3 variations), BP (4 variations), Notch (2 variations), Comb (4 variations), S&H

Filters can self-oscillate (with excitation) and respond amazingly fast to cutoff frequency changes.

Waveshaper (5 shapes)

MODULATION
12 LFO units available, 6 are per voice and 6 are global for the whole scene

DAHDSR envelope generators on every LFO-unit

7 deformable LFO waveforms + drawable/step sequencer waveform

LFO 1 allows envelope retriggering when used as step sequencer

Extremely fast and flexible modulation routing. Almost every continuous parameter can be modulated.

EFFECTS
8 effect units arranged as 2 inserts per scene, 2 sends and 2 master effects

10 top-quality algorithms:

Delay, Reverb, Chorus, Phaser, EQ, Distortion, Conditioner (EQ, stereo-image control, and limiter), Rotary speaker, Frequency shifter, Vocoder

Version 1.6.3 to 1.6.4.1
Versions 1.6.4 and 1.6.4.1 were released late November 2019, with several MPE and effect changes, new content, and some small cleanups

Synth Sound and Behavior
Release velocity is now an available modulation source. See more details here
Sustain Pedal in MPE mode was mis-mapped to the wrong channel, leading to it not working in MPE note-per-channel configurations
The ‘Drive’ feature in the distortion effect is extendible
New Content
A set of MPE patches for the Linnstrument provided by Roger Linn. Here’s a video of Roger demonstrating them.
Producer Damon Armani contributed a set of EDM & Dubstep Wavetables and Patches to the 3rd party library.
Other smaller changes
Mouse button shows value of integer and boolean sliders
Fix a small repaint bug in the LFO display
Handle cases where user folders don’t exist
Make LFO modulation button state always consistent
Better abbreviated names of modulation sources, with consistent case and spelling
Failed wav file loads include the name of the file which failed
Developer documentation cleanup and unit tests
1.6.4.1 was a minor release that corrected the installer on macOS Catalina, renamed and completed a couple of the new content packs and fixed two small graphics assets.
