Native Instruments Tackles the Digital FM Formula
Native Instruments has sought to harness the unkempt power of digital FM synthesis. The result? The FM8 synthesizer plug-in. From the start, FM8 unleashes a whirlwind of classic FM synthesis with a built-in, easy-to-use matrix for entirely personalized operator algorithms. Likewise, in-depth adjustments for each operator, envelopes, and effects make digital synthesis even deeper than before, along with a built-in arpeggiator and morphine engine for expansive possibilities from vintage-inspired EP keys to atmospheric pads and everywhere in between. Beyond complex parameter adjustability, a built-in effects bank, and a simple yet granular user interface, Sweetwater synthesists have found that the FM8 synthesizer's collection of over 1,200 factory-built presets provides a perfect pathway for instant performances and an exceptional inspirational tool.
