FPGA 8 Voice 2 Operator FM MIDI Polysynth

"Description:
8vFM-2x4 is an 8 voice two operator FM MIDI polysynth. Each voice is comprised of 4 FM sound generators which can be individually tuned, configured and modulated.

The main reason I wanted to do this project was for bells and chimes. I had heard that FM is good for them. I had tried doing them with a linear arithmetic synth design (GateManPoly/8), but bells and chimes were lackluster in that synth."

You can find more details and samples at the FPGA Synth Wiki.
