Description

Frequency Modulate Everything: Frequency Modulation, or FM, is a synthesis technique used to create a wide range of sounds, from delicate, shimmering textures to aggressive, metallic timbres with unusual harmonics. X-FM is designed by Ableton Certified Trainer Noah Pred to revolutionize this technique by adding it as an audio effect that can be tuned or played via MIDI. Better yet, it can flexibly harness any sound in your Live set as an FM carrier for the input signal using the innovative External mode. Adding movement and vitality to any sound, X-FM excels at embedding new relationships between different audio and MIDI elements anywhere in a project, opening new pathways for experimentation. Producing intricate and evolving timbres, X-FM is the perfect tool for adding sophistication and complexity to your work. X-FM is optimized for Push with full Info View annotations for further details; just hover the mouse over any parameter to view detailed information on all controls in Live’s Info View.
