    FM Synthesis (techniques, anecdotes)

    in EKT General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by telefunken

    Any preenFM2 users ? Any feedback on this little beast would be great !

     

    I love PFM2. I have it since 2014 iirc. I helped Xavier to find first fm-related bugs since PFM2 is fm synthesizer not pm like yamaha. Recently some user found more fm-engine bugs and they were fixed. Now it is close to an ideal.

    You can use 4 instruments simultaneously:

    You can upload your own waveforms as txt

    and scala files also

    I remember an interview of that time, 2005 where SB was asked about favorite stuff of the moment and his answer was smth like "meh i don't dig this modern stuff much but mr. oizo moustache is awesome". And Untilted actually feels like that, some kind of reinterpretation in 'chre style.

    Yeah menu diving is PITA in blofeld. Always misleads you from sounds you actually want (oh one more Env page etc). That's why i sold it pretty long time ago (i tried to tweak it with my zero sl also before doing it). Though sonic range you can sqeeze from it is ridiculously wide and interesting.

    My friend who makes synths at Black Corporation made me an offer to craft some abstract stuff for showcase / black corp night and lent me one of their units, Deckard's Dream. It is arrived in StPetes already an will be in my 'studio' soon. So now i have to make something abstract with it  :fear:

     

    Btw i'd choose NordRack2 instead of Blofeld. Blofeld is deep and capable though it's menu is pretty counterproductive when you try to achieve something really intetesting for example when you deal with it's modmatrix and modifiers (this one is really killer feature though it is less deep than MW XT's one)

    I'd love to contribute to that topic, but I'm quite a noob when it comes to FM synthesis, most of my knowledge comes from randomly messing with u-he's Bazille oscillators.

     

    Anyway, as I'm on a Gabor Lazar binge, I was wondering how similar sounds can be achieved. Sounds like FM and/or comb filtering to my ears. I've made some similar sounds (well, maybe closer to Errorsmith's early  works) using all sorts of modulated delays and reverbs, but I'm really curious to know how to get such sounds with FM.

     

    Any advice / tips ?

     

    u-he's Bazille and Zebra, as well as Aalto, are my weapons of choice for anything FM.

    Thanks!

     

    I doubt it is FM. I think it is more modern approach on additive synthesis in style of NI RAZOR etc. Iirc i saw a photo from Lazar's studio where you can see this stuff implemented on nord modular g2
