Intro to FM-X Sound Design on the MODX and Montage

FM sound design is seen as a black art practiced only by geniuses like Brian Eno, and best left alone by mere mortal synth owners. I'm here to tell you that this is NOT the case, and that anyone - and that means YOU - can do simple FM sound design! This is not the age of arcane DX-7 programming. Today's Montage and MODX make FM programming easy, and dare I say it - FUN! In this video I teach you how to make two simple sounds using the FM-X synth engine in your MODX and Montage, and set you off on your journey of FM discovery!
