I'm using a TX81Z to edit a single patch, but what you see and learn here can be carried over to many other FM synthesizers. This is far from a complete coverage of all topics, but meant to help get users started with an intuitive approach."
"Just a little demo about this funny synthesizer from 80's. It's a six-voice analog synth (DCO) and uses the same analog filter than the JX-8P. It has only one oscillator but lets you combine several waveforms.
In this demo, i'm using a typical BCR which allows to you to control all the internal parameters. It's easy to program and much cheaper than the original PG-300.
I'm sorry for the colours and distorted image, just a joke ;) Anyway, I hope you like it.
"EMW will add an extra dimension, with sound-activated dynamic colors to your modular.
The EMW SPECTRAL VIEWER module splits the audio frequency band and translates the individual bands into intensity color levels in a way that red represents low frequencies, green represents the mid frequencies and blue the high frequencies. A full audio material fed into the module will be translated into a dynamically multi-color visualization of the audio spectrum."

"The Monolithic Two-dimensional Keyboard (Monolith for short), invented by Jacob Duringer, allows a composer or musician to perform all the parts or arrangements of instruments simultaneously strictly by skill. This paradigm shift in thinking required the reconceptualization of the one-dimensional piano keyboard that controlled pitch only into a two-dimensional keyboard that controls both pitch and timbre in any combination at any given moment.
Jacob Duringer's album "The Fruit of the Spirit" is available on itunes."
Some details from The Monolith site:
"The Monolithic Two-Dimensional Keyboard, or Monolith for short. This new MIDI keyboard is based upon a simple idea,: that of expanding the one-dimensional piano keyboard (which has a fixed timbre and sequential pitch changes in the X-axis) into two-dimensions (offering sequential pitch variation in the X-axis AND timbre variation in rows parallel to the first row. Each row of keys offer the possibility of different instruments in the Y-axis.
The keys are all equal in width, facilitating easier and more linear fingering than is possible with the piano keyboard. The key length on the Monolith is only that of a finger tip. The extra key length found on a piano keyboard does not serve a useful purpose for synthesizers since the piano keyboard originated from the cantilever action of the hammer-string mechanism. Thus, the new keyboard has been reduced to a thin strip of keys. Note however, that the piano structure and scaling is left entirely intact.
With this new design other rows of keys can be arranged above or below the first row. These rows of keys are manually accessible by moving the finger horizontally AND vertically. Now two adjacent fingers can play different rows of keys, each row assigned to a different MIDI channel and processed through a different timbre or instrument. The Monolith engineering prototype, 4th generation, contains 15 rows each of 4 octaves of keys.
Since each row can be a different instrument the performer is effectively playing an entire arrangement of a musical composition, not just a part. At any moment in time the performer can change the timbre and pitch of multiple instruments simultaneously..."

"Another day of the Circuit European tour was followed by a quick performance thrown together in the second hotel.... this time it's Torino, Italy with the fantastic MidiWare crew!
This one is a bit longer and makes full use of the scales and transpose page with the quick view function."
