preenfm2 and preenfm3 / Re: PreenFM3 Questions

« on: October 12, 2020, 06:39:51 PM »

hi. just a quick question for a FM newbie. will this make it more like a dx7, hence importing old patches to create similar sounds? great work and i'm looking forward to the preenfm3.

PM with feedback please

Available in the v0.91
https://github.com/Ixox/preenfm3/releases


Don't expect a all new universe of sound, but can be interesting in some situation.
So it's a phase modulation feedback with a DC offset removal algo not to shift main frequency of the followin FM op.

For each algo the operator with feedback is visible in the UI, and can be changed with the "Fdbk" encoder.

Hi @Toltekradiation. Are you Cevorkum in YouTube? How do you represent feedback in PreenFM2? Examples in these videos have feedback in one operator. Thanks.

a bump to this underated thread..
thanks you element-s for posting, very nice work, really inspiring !
just found the other videos, i like it all :

Thanks. I think I understand the envelopes better now. Will now spend more time on OPs and IMs.

Sorry that's a question coming from analog synth usage (sustain can be switched off so it become "one shot"). Thanks for your replies. I will try those envelop values.

Also, I'm still confused about the envelops. Is it possible for a patch to be just one shot (length controlled by envelop) instead of looping (sustains while key is pressed)?

Arrk 0 Lvl 1
Decay 0 Lvl 1
Sust 0 Lvl 1
Release >0 Lv 0

Not sure i understand your question.
While the key is pressed operators enveloppes remaines on the "Sust" step.

Thanks for the reply, Xavier.

It seems I can approximate the FM effect using IM*. I'm probably looking at the wrong examples, though. Is there a classic synth that has a similar workflow to preenfm2? I was trying to copy this patch using Algo24 with OP6 off to learn FM:

Also, I'm still confused about the envelops. Is it possible for a patch to be just one shot (length controlled by envelop) instead of looping (sustains while key is pressed)?

Hello all.

I'm starting to dive into (hopefully) serious FM programming using concepts of the DX family of keys found online. I noticed there's no feature for feedback but there are additional osc shapes. How can one represent feedback using preenfm2?

Thanks for your possible replies.
