So this totally upped my understanding. First thing I did was go into the DX’s factory WoodEP preset and take OP4’s envelope down to zero after the attack on the tine sound. No more high pitched ringing (which was driving me crazy, though I like the rest of the patch). STORE button, overwrite, yes. Thanks for teaching me the way!
Hehe. More like a marimba than an electric piano. Nice series though! I'm watching all of it in the hope of exciting me about FM synthesis. You bear full responsibility for the outcome, hr hr. :D
Ah, you have witnessed the Rule of FM Programming: "If you're not careful, you will end up making a patch that sounds like bells, clarinets, or marimba!" :)
On the contrary, I would say that FM can indeed produce a very wide palette of sounds, but you really need to explore it, and FM is not as intuitive as say additive or subtractive synthesis. "Bell-like" sounds are also within the FM sweet spot making them easy to stumble upon. The Reface does make exploration easier than perhaps previous FM hardware has been able to.

Absolutely loved this tutorial! Thanks a lot for the explanations. Waiting to see more Reface DX tutorials :)
Thank you, really glad you liked it! More to come :)
Again: an awesome and inspirational tutorial. Thanks!
Nice worK! It would take me days to do this. I would have saved a dozen of the sounds you created during the process of creating the final.
Really great. Copied this for a piano sound.
Excellent!
Slight detunning of the modulator against the carrier used to work wonders in classic FM synths, I don't know why nobody seems to use it...
Thanks for posting this. whats the song your playing at around 6:15? I'm trying to picture where I have heard it. Great work
It's a variation of the opening chords to the theme from "Hill Street Blues". Fun that you recognized it :)

Stochastic Design hehe. In your experience, would you say that FM cannot give as wide a sound palette as other digital synthesis? Or just for Yamaha?

Stochastic Design Can you give examples of FM patches that are different from the typical Yamaha sound shown in these tutorials?
Thanks ! Amazing movie !
