On that note though, I actually found the FM synth in the M8 Tracker to be quite close to the Monomachine sound in some ways, although which much better control. We all can agree that the most used synthesizer plug-ins right now are Sylenth1 by Lennar Digital, Serum by xFer Record and Spire by Reveal Sound.
SYTRUS VS FM8 HOW TO
In a sense, those kind of synths are far less “blindly explorable” as you may have to have a goal in mind and an idea how to get there, you can’t just (as easily) fiddle around and get a satisfying result.īut you could definitely replicate all of it on a more open ended FM synth such as Ableton Operator, FM8, Dexed, Digitone, Sytrus… What will be missing is the unique filters and overall structure of the Monomachine which really makes it shine in my opinion. After all, the DX7 and subsequent “main line” FM sytnhesizers are all pretty much modular (or at least semi-modular) which can make it hard to reach the same point as just flicking a few knobs on the Monomachine. Its 'Dual' control provides some interesting opportunities. Toxic does have a very simplistic yet effective sequencer. Since you already own Sytrus, you know that it's a complicated and sophisticated beast. It's easy to program and produces a very nice sound. It’s based on a wonderfully-designed sound engine and sports six user customizable and fully independent operators, frequency modulators, ring modulators, partial-harmonic editors, a massive array of EQ sliders and knobs, and more importantly, a. Toxic Bio is a straightforward, entry level FM synth. There aren’t actually that many FM synths out there that actually map the underlying engine to more macro-ish parameters, which is kind of a shame. Sytrus is an excellent choice even if you’re using other studio tools and platforms. For atonal stuff like effects, some drums, etc you may have a lot more happy accidents… Which is why the Monomachine has several FM engines, each made for different type of sounds in mind. Linear phase crossover filters seem to result in best time alignment preferably those with a steep slope.Īs for the Isoacoustic pucks, I would expect they do their job but you could also use every other material that is reasonably thick and dampens vibrations like some types of rubber mats.I see - well you can do that with almost any FM synth out there, most of them have fine tuning or fractional ratios (including Digitone, if you want an Elektron sequenced experience)ĭepends on what kind of sound you want to make, no? For tonal sounds having “free” ratios can be very hard to navigate since it will easily detune the fundamental pitch of the sound.
SYTRUS VS FM8 DRIVERS
It might result in improved clarity and minimal ringing, once those small drivers got "relieved" through such a relatively high, high pass filter
