Manufacturer's Description for Native Instruments FM7 Software Synth (Macintosh and Windows)

Native Instruments FM7 Software Synth (Macintosh and Windows)
The FM7 takes the legendary sound of FM synthesis to a new level. Not only does the FM7 read the complete sound library from the classic FM synths, but it goes far beyond emulation. It adds distortion and filter operators, extensive modulation capabilities, a comprehensive effects section, audio input and much more to the traditional FM architecture. The user interface of the FM7 makes it comfortable and easy to explore the fascinating new possibilities of FM - Native style.

Reproducing the FM classics
The lively and punchy FM sounds were a breakthrough in sound synthesis when they were first introduced in the early eighties. Nowadays, their special aesthetics are still highly appreciated by musicians and producers worldwide. FM sounds complement the sounds of analog and virtual analog synthesizers very well. The FM7 can read all programs from the original DX7, DX7-II, DX11, TX81Z, DX21, DX27, DX100, TX802 and reproduce the sounds of these machines exactly.

Extended sound processing and effects
The FM7 is more than an emulation. Enjoy the authenticity of the classic presets, and then transform them into something completely new. For example, each of the operators of the FM7 offers many waveforms besides sine. Additionally, a distortion operator with noise and an analog filter operator complement the waveform operators and increase the sonic range of the FM7, far beyond classic FM synthesis. Unlike the classic, FM routing can be set freely - you are not limited to preset algorithms.
The effect section of the FM7 offers high quality stereo chorus, flanging and delay effects.

Graphical editing
The advanced graphical editors of the FM7 offer intuitive access to FM synthesis. It's never been that easy to discover the enormous sound potential of frequency modulation zZounds is an authorized dealer of Native Instruments products.

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. Native Instruments FM7 Customer Review

Sound: you can get some seriously wicked sounds out of this if you know how to program in FM. definitely a "digital" sounding synth though. Feature: it's insane. no other FM synth can hold a candle to it. 8 operators routable in any imaginable way? come on! Ease of Use: well, it's like alien technology at first. seems really complex. but you get into it and realize it's actually pretty easy. Quality: totally stable. never crashes. very low CPU! i can run about 10 of these at once on my G4 powerbook 1.5 ghz Value: for what you can do it's actually a very good value. Manufacturer Support: never needed it. The Wow Factor: awesome possibilities with this thing. it's been around for awhile, but that means it is rock solid! Overall: NI's most practical and efficient, yet feature-rich soft synth

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "VERY IMPRESSED"

Sound: VERY good. If you want a great FM sound, look no further. Feature: I was very impressed at the sound sculpting capabilities of this synth. You could go VERY deep with this one. Ease of Use: There are sections for simple edits to sounds which I find intuitive. You can get as complex as you are willing to get. Quality: The best FM synth there is. Value: This will the only FM synth I will ever need. Manufacturer Support: Just visit Native Instruments for a demo, update, forums, or what have you. The Wow Factor: Got one Overall: Great for many uses. I think this is better than Absynth.
