FM(frequency modulation)

#15726103 - 01/27/12 05:39 PM (14 years, 7 months ago)

FM(frequency modulation) is quite a trippy concept in the world of audio. Where with subtractive (2 signals mixed together equating a totality ) FM uses 1 signal to modulate (to vary properties of) the second signal, equating to a smooshed, twangled, waveform. It's like visually hallucinating 2 objects merging together and animating as one

it's kinda weird, i guess? if you're talking about how modulation works, i guess, it is pretty cool.

Feedback FM is really weird, but cool. Oscillators oscillating themself.. :Awemazing:

:Awemazing:

I'm going to be a nitpicky bastard and point out that subtractive synthesis has more to do with shaping the sound with filters and such though.

On a side note.. check out this synth that I get to use now.

I can see it. there are many ways to generate an oscillation, we have been doing it at least as early as the 1930s.

It is like a living organism, complicating itself building from the center out. All different ways of altering the original signal.

It's fun, magical stuff.

and talking about Moog, you guys ever saw the Moog Guitar???

if I remember correctly it can switch from fret to fretless with the push of a button and it can sustain sound infinitly

(would search and post the vid but my pc's fucked I can't)

I'm studying at a university. You should see our Protools rigs :homerdrool:

I'm going to miss those studios. The Surge behind the Arp in the pic above is pretty cool too although less impressive.
