Description
Valence FM is a 2-operator FM synthesizer, with some features that make it a bit different than a standard Yamaha DX-type synth.
There are 25 single-cycle waveforms to use as the carrier and modulator waves. It can work in mono or stereo, with separate FM depth controls per channel.
"Rate" is a bitrate reduction effect, followed by a non-resonant high pass filter, and then a resonant lowpass filter. both FM amount and the lowpass cutoff can be assigned to the second envelope.
Rand == All will randomize the settings, except for Gain, Glide, and Envelope Triggering. Credit to Chris Randall of Audio Damage for the name. I've wanted to put this into a synth for awhile now.
Credit is also due to AdventureKid, where the waveforms were sourced (except for the standard 7 waves at the end of the list, straight from Max's library). While the waves themselves are public domain, he put a ton of work into collecting them: http://www.adventurekid.se/akrt/waveforms/
