Function [up] [down]
Waveform generation by fm-synthesis like on a Yamaha CX-7.

Parameter [up] [down]
Miscellaneous/SLenLength of the sound
Miscellaneous/SRatPlaybackrate of the sample. Can be entered as rate, note or choosen from the period-window
Miscellaneous/Volume (Scale)Volume of the waveform
Miscellaneous/Frq (Pitch)Basispitch of the sound to be generated. This can happen directly or throughthe period-window.It's advisable (read:really good) to choose a "C" as a note so you can usethe result in any music program easily.
Miscellaneous/OperatorChoose for which operator you want to edit wave, ampitude and frequency.
Wave (Oszillator)What waveform will be used for the oscillator is determined here :
  • Sin : Sine
  • Tri : Triangle
  • Saw : Sawtooth
  • Sqr : Square
Wave/Pha. (Phase) Phaseshift (0-360 Degrees)
Modulation-MatrixA checked box means that the amplitude of the src-operator modulates thefrequency of the dest operator. As you can easilly see, there are lotsof variations possible.

Notes [up] [down]
As a speciality of this operator you can import presets saved by FMSynth (fileversion 1.3) as well. I would like to say thank you to the author Christian Stiens for the source at this place.
FM-synthesis is a complex matter. Just have a look at the included presets and modify them. If you generated some good one, just send them to me, so I can include them in further versions.
