Description

A simple FM synth that is in fact called simple fm~ in Max.

Has the ability to be triggered through a sequence (or playing it on your keyboard etc.) or mapped to an amplitude such as a drum beat. To create your own presets you must open it in Max and after adjusting your envelopes and frequency (harmonicity) press SHIFT and the

preset (bubble i call it) to store. YOU MUST SAVE the patch to save the presets. It can modulate through your presets to tempo. Tried to get rid of cycle~ innate clicking by creating a trapezoid envelope which then lowered the volume, so I had to add a compressor. I could have just left them out of presentation but they can add a bit to the timbre. Added midi capability.

    This is a MAGNIFICENT synth to create Autechre-style (and beyond) percussive sounds. Could be an entirely new instrument with a few changes - wish I understood Max/MSP.
