FM Synthesis Tutorial | How To Make Classic Waveforms (Yamaha DX7, Dexed, Arturia DX7 V)
In this step-by-step tutorial video, learn how to create classic waveforms using FM synthesis. These techniques apply to the original Yamaha DX7 and the soft synths Dexed, Arturia DX7 V and Native Instruments FM8. You may have to adjust the modulator output and feedback on other synths.We’ll use the free synth Dexed for this tutorial.
