Hello there, just posting a thread for any questions, suggestions or bugs you might have for FMMF, the Dev Challenge entry from de la Mancha, powered by botkiller presets.

FMMF is a 4 Op FM synth with 32 stage envelopes and more...

hi dlm! really cool synth.

question: i'm trying to pass OP1->OP2 and i configured the routing to be one that has 1->2 but it doesn't sound like it's modulating it much. like op1 has a saw, op2 has a sine, but when i raise the level of op1 (which is said to be modulating op2) it doesn't really sound that different. am i overlooking something important?

Thanks for checking FMMF out grymmjack

I'm getting a healthy modulation of Op2 by Op1 here. I made a preset that demonstrates this, exactly as your set up

http://www.delamancha.co.uk/misc/FMMF_op1_mods_op2.zip

Op1 is a saw
Op2 is a sine
The Op1 amp envelope modulates across 8 segments, so the amp of Op1 goes up and down and so the modulation comes on and off.

When Op1 amp is low, you hear a steady sine, when Op1 amp is high, you hear a buzzy sound

and a piccy of the settings too

Hope that helps, but feel free to shout if you have any other questions

actually i'm a bit afraid to try this, as it seems a hefty beast...
just chimed by to say how much i appreciate your GUI design. this one is no exception.

(BTW, voted for truc in last DC)

Cheers and good luck!

hehe, thanks and much appreciated

Don't be afraid, there's a 16 page manual that hopefully explains most of it, plus I'll try and answer any questions you have here. If all else fails, there's 64 brian botkiller presets to keep your neighbours awake with

Can't get any sound out of it on my laptop

I use Fl studio 8, and it crashes

Does the GUI load?

What's your soundcard?

Sounds exactly like a bug that was in FL 8.0, a bug in the VST wrapper that caused some plugins to load, but no sound and a crash on exit

You should update to FL 8.0.2 or better still FL 9.0
I tested FMMF in both these with no issues
