Subject: Re: [motm] Creating Interesting waveforms ( was FM Synthesis w/ MOTM)

Go to www.synthtech.com/news

scroll down a bit, listen to the Robert Rich 'Live' MP3. It's got killer FM marimbas! All MOTM.

The secret is:

a) use Linear FM on a '300
b) use Sine or Triangle waves only (FM input and VCO output)
c) Use a fast, enveloped sine wave as the FM input
