Really opened my mind more to FM synthesis. I always thought it was just for metallic percussive sounds and trippy basses, but it can clearly do a lot more! I also understand how to program an FM synth now too lol

Whilst I understand FM basics I have no idea what this hill analogy was about lol - good detailed intro to FM though. I could follow and I use hardware FM synths. + he pronounced TIMBRE correctly :)

I'm gonna have to watch this a few times to fully absorb it. As for other synths, Phase Plant can do ANYTHING.

i would suggest trying a synclavier emulation, as a reghen owner i'de love to see you compare algorythme type of fm, and synclavier type. i'm learning the unit but i;'m not shure i can cvross mod partials to create more complex fm "algorythmes", i'de love to see someone confortable with fm talk about this. it seems to me that a yam fm synth doesnt have a larger panel of sounds and textures than a syclavier engine... thoughts ?

You got any more FM synth tutorials? Some patch recipes would be enormously helpful.

I love FM8. Luckily, unlike Absynth IV it still runs on Windows 10 without glitches.

Your analogies are confusing but this was still informative.

The only issue I have with this video is that it is almost ignoring hardware options. I have a DX9, and I think you could have given more attention to the algorithm used in your examples. Not all of us use soft synths... Which is ok. :)
