FM8 Tutorials

Post by breakitdown »

Hey guys,

Thought this may be of interest to some of you.

I've created a tutorial blog for FM8 similar to my other website for Massive (massivesynth.com)

Tutorials for FM8

http://www.fm8tutorials.com/

I'll be working on filling it up over the coming months, there's a fair few tutorials up already, 30 sounds for subscribers (free) and a short 5 part course to get to grips with the synth (also free).

Hope it's off use!

We're working on making tutorials in video - but for now they are written tutorials with screen grabs. Tonko has done a great job with them - they are pretty indepth.

Great job you're doing. I've always wanted to get more personal with FM8 but I was kinda scared. Keep up the good work!

Thanks Direkt

A new tutorial up today creating an acid lead sound.

This is not really an emulation of sounds made on Roland TB-303 because in FM8 this involves a bit different technique. We will use the modulator in combination with a highly resonant filter to modulate our carrier operator.

This will produce some very interesting effects which are suitable also for many other sounds not just 303 like acid synth lines.
