Symplesound has introduced FM Collection – a set of three new Ableton Live libraries – DX, 81Z, and Operator.
The libraries, created by producer Francis Preve, are designed to make it easy to explore FM synthesis:
- The DX library includes 10 velocity-multisampled instruments, based on the legendary Yamaha DX7, including its iconic electric piano, bass and marimba sounds.
- The 81Z library focuses on 11 multisampled instruments that helped set the tone of the 90’s house and techno genres.
- The Operator library offers bass, pad, lead and pluck instrument types, with a simple set of controls for harmonic spectrum, filtering, and specialized
envelope controls.
Here’s the official video intro:
