After a quite long break – I apologise for that – my series about FM and PM synthesis continues. Workshop 4 is available now:


In column 1 of workshop 4 I introduce ImageLine´s FM/PM/RM synth “Sytrus”, compare it and its sounds to DEXED and talk about transfering data between DEXED, Sytrus, the DX7 and the Korg Volca FM.
In column 2 I talk about second order frequency/phase modulations, about modulating with waves others than sine waves.
And in column 3 I analyse an orchestral FM preset in Sytrus.

Granular Extractions for Sample Players (CrusherX Part 19)

Tutorial 19 about granular synthesis with CrusherX is available now. https://youtu.be/y2y8_kNrs5c It deals with the question: how to extract new exciting future sounds for our sample players from all kinds of sound sources (including field recordings) using granular processes. After a bit more than 98 hours of work this video has got the longest one I´ve ever made: 3 hours and 12 minutes (I´ve split the video in two parts to make downloading easier). And it´s packed with approaches, rules, facts, tricks and hints and a lot of practical examples including a complete case study. Here´s the Timeline: Part A 0:00:00 Introduction 0:02:25 First Approaches 0:04:22 Finding the Right Parameter Constellations 0:05:43 Manipulating Sine Waves 0:09:49 Dealing With Volume Oscillations and Aliasing 0:22:16 Which Type of Grain Window? 0:37:32 How Many Generators? 0:41:18 Some Tricks to Make Life Easier 0:44:51 Dealing With Saw ...

An Old Radio, Short Wave Sampling and the Beauty of the Ages I found this old radio on a garage sale about two weeks ago and got it for about 8 dollars. I thought of using the speaker and the case, but when testing it at home I found out, that it worked perfectly. It is about 60 years old and sounds really good. I´m thinking of doing some short wave sampling to feed my granular processor with new raw material. I will have to make an antenna though. There is a terribly bad radio reception in my flat. And while thinking of the best way to build such an antenna I came upon a second old radio of the same brand (just a few years younger). There are some problems with the volume knob. I opened the case therefore and I´m fascinated by these old electronic parts in it.  They are simply beautiful! (By the way: there is even the skeleton of a dead spider in the radio.) I´ll keep you informed about the whole project, which you can also follow on ...
