Raise the self modulation of operator E to 55. We can do that by raising the self modulation amount of operator F to around 60.Įnable operator E and set it’s ratio to 2. We have already set operator F ratio to 2. So operators E and F will be both set to twice the fundamental frequency of our incoming MIDI note. As you can see all of the envelopes now share the same shape. Set the envelope like in the picture below. Go to the envelope section of the FM8 and enable link button for all the envelopes.

Each of two paired operators should have the same envelope shape.įor now let’s set the same envelope for all the operators and later on we will adjust them separately for each pair. Now let’s link all the envelopes of the operators. I have also applied some side chain compression to the sound to give it that typical pulsating effect.

Maybe this is a bit extreme setting but let’s keep it for now so we will be able to hear this effect more clearly. We should also detune these voices with detune slider found in the unison window of the FM8 master section. This means FM8 will use four voices for each single key pressed which will give them nice fat sound. In the master section of the FM8 set the unison and polyphony voices to 4. Set filter to parallel, mix to both outputs, level to 100. Operators A and B will be one octave lower than the frequency of MIDI note played, operators C and D will be set to the same frequency as the midi note and operator E and F will be one octave higher.Įnable operator F, set it’s ratio to 2 and route it to the filter module Z. We shall use operator in pairs and detune them relatively to each other. We will also use some effects from the FM8 effects section to further spice the sound. Supersaw sound is quite easy to create in FM8 since we can use up to six operators to give it that fat, warm sound. Today we will be creating simple supersaw patch.
