I just got FM8 for 10 bucks because that price is a steal and I’ve always wanted to dive deeper into FM synthesis, having spent most of my life on the subtractive side. turns out it’s one of the best synths i’ve ever used. I love my virus TI snow but there is something so simple and immediate about FM8, very quickly getting you to insane and truly unique sounds. thank you for the awesome tutorial!

That is probably the most concise explanation of how frequency modulation works in existence.

Enjoyed this series alot! just wished there would have been a 4rth video going on with the resampling and showing further steps of processing/fx until the finished sound and arranging it in a project together with the drums which have been created. a finished dnb bass will often have more movement and morphing in the final state due to further processing which I would love to have seen in a 4rth video.

This tutorial is super useful!! Thanks so much Icicle and great to see you on the Drum and Bass Movement documentary from Drum & Bass Arena. We use this method in Kontakt already, but learnt a thing or two here. For anybody new to this way of working... Our biggest recent discovery when resampling in Kontakt, was selecting Time & Pitch Pro 2 under the Source box, where you can then keep the sample time constant at any pitch and speed it up or slow it down, which enables you to get some serious Womps if you slow down a pre-modulated sample, but also allows you to control the speed of a short sample loop which could be used to create a Noisia Shellshock style Slide. Hope that helps somebody...
