New:

Taking the lively energetic sound of FM synthesis, the FM8 adds untold flexibility and ease-of-use. Creative new features expand its sonic potential beyond all expectations - the sound of FM synthesis will never be the same again. The following is brief summary of the new and improved features in FM8.

FM Made Easy
The FM8 is the ideal starting point for beginners into the world of FM synthesis: sounds can be quickly and easily altered using the intuitive controls on the "Easy Edit Page". The synthesizer is however equally suited to experts in the field: operator details and the full range of advanced, editable parameters are all available and accessible within a vastly improved hierarchy.

The KoreSound® Browser and KORE
All 960 presets have been pre-configured for use with KORE and categorised as KoreSounds®. The KoreSound® Browser brings a high degree of simplicity and speed to the task of finding and managing presets. Browse and filter according to a number of different sonic criteria and attributes or just enter a keyword or phrase in the free search mode - the results are displayed instantly.

Morphing Sounds
The sound morphing feature is incredibly simple yet unbelievably powerful. Just dragndrop sounds directly from the KoreSound® Browser onto the four corners and you can now morph your current preset with the timbres of the additional sounds you selected. The movements can of course be automated. An ingeniously creative way of designing completely new and fluctuating sounds.

The powerful, programmable arpeggiator offers a matrix of up to 32 steps. Similar to a step sequencer, it automatically adds explosive patterns and accents to the notes you play - instantly instilling your productions with that extra edge.

Rack Em Up!
In addition to FM 7s effects, the new rack includes over 10 new effects: from talk wah, phaser and flanger to tremolo, reverb and pitch-able delay - its all in there. The effects rack allows you to add your personal touch to any sound. From pristine and pure to the roughest, dirtiest sonic creations, these effects take the FM8 way beyond the stereotypical sound of FM synthesis.
