Some of them are REALLY nice dude. Well doneSparxy wrote:Here's an example of some of the sounds i've been getting out of FM8. This remix was a good opportunity to test out some new techniques, so just getting started really![]()
You can get some sick sounds coming straight out the synth but these ones have a touch of resampling and post processing

I understand what you are saying about being original but this just isnt true. many artists have made it just by copying someone else.amphibian wrote:Noone ever made it to the top by copying someone else.tylerblue wrote:amphibian wrote:Tyler - would like your tune a lot more if it didn't sound like skrillex.

Hey thanks man! I need to try that. See im VERY new to FM8. That sound is basically the first and only one Ive made so far in FM8. This may sound retarded but can you give any tips on how to go about routing LFO? I still dont know all of the interface. I mean I know it but not anything like I should. Or even better could you suggest some good tutorials?Sparxy wrote:Thanks dudes! The tutorial I posted really helped me, I had a look at the sort of setup he had within FM8 and just emulated it a bit. As a total newcomer to the synth it just helped me figure out the UI and how to twiddle certain things more than anything else.
Fbac, love the pic hahaha
djcainn, good sound, but try pitch bending it up to give it the rising feeling. Also needs some higher harmonics, you can LFO all sorts of shit in FM8 to get fucked up sounds. Try LFOing a filter or one of your oscillators, a slow LFO will give it more growl
read the manual lol. Sparx and everyone else figured it out by watching the videos posted and experimenting. there's no magic or secret technique to it.Codox wrote:TUTORIAL

Skrillex's official stalker.
In case you made it through that one, try
[stupid]
Click the "mod" button to open the page and you have to click on the spot in the matrix where lfo1 or 2 interesects with whatever operator, carrier, or filter you want modulated. Move mouse up or down to taste and make sure lfo is on at the bottom of the page..djcainn wrote:Hey thanks man! I need to try that. See im VERY new to FM8.
