"Yamaha DX200 Into the FM Dimension 2017
by Rik Marston 100% No Talking!!!
**Watch in HD!!** **Turn it UP!!!**

An extensive DEEP tweaking of the FM
synthesis engine of the Yamaha DX200
Loopfactory / Groovebox / Synthesizer.
No patterns or beats in this video folks,
just pure DX200 FM synthesis in action!!!!!
This demo shows off the FM engine and
all of it''s glossy, warm, harsh, metallic,
industrial, steampunk & ambient sound.
Way awesome if you need some sounds
that come from another world. "A.I. takes
the Earth" kinda stuff. Synthetic, artificial,
COLD, systematic, DARK, intimidating...
It sounds like that and a whole lot more...
It has some POSITIVE, clean sounds in
it also. That late '80's / early '90's sound.
Just clean & bright, MAGIC dripping off
of it. That Hollywood sound. Cinematic.
I hope you dig this video! Get one NOW!!
The DX200 is only getting more expensive
second hand on eBay & Reverb so don't wait!
The Yamaha DX200 is AWESOME!! A+++"

"After only one day of testing it's definitely my favorite synth... here's my first test - just turning the knobs:)
awesome sound and modulations - the Dreadbox Nyx is the perfect addition to the Erebus and the Hades."

3 Modules #3: Rings, Peaks, Brain Seed

All parts here.

"Wanted to go with a simple and pretty one to follow up the messy episode 2. This is one of my favourite patches.

Patch notes:
Peaks ch. 2 produces a simple, skewed ramp wave LFO which feeds into the Brain Seed seed input. Brain Seed treats this kind of like a sample and hold signal input, and samples the ramp wave to produce V/oct CV for Rings.

However, unlike a regular sample and hold module, Brain Seed doesn't react to a trigger signal. Instead it stores the 8 most recently sampled values, and moves between them as directed by the Cycle CV input. In this case, I'm using a smoothed random LFO from Peaks ch. 1 to modulate this movement. Since it's a random signal, the sampled values are output in random order. But since it's smoothed, it "strums" through adjacent values to get from one point of the sequence to another.

By switching on and off "ReSeed" on the Brain Seed, I can choose to lock down the 8 sampled values (ReSeed off - cycle LED flashes green) which leads to somewhat repeating patterns, or allow new values to be sampled (ReSeed on - cycle flashes red). I'm using this to create movements and repetitions as I see fit."
