Howdy doody, frienderoonies! Today we’re here to talk all about FM Synthesis. FM is one of my favorite flavors of synthesis and is capable of everything from lush pads to cutting edge modern dubstep and neuro basses and just about everything in between.
We’ll be going through the history of FM, talk about some patch basics, and explain the concept of FM Synthesis before diving in to a handful of sound design tips to get you started creating your own FM Synth patches.
And, of course, we’ll be using the lovely Kilohearts Phase Plant to do it!
