FS1r sound library brings you a modern classic
To
purchase Ultimate FM, please visit the NUSofting online

Ultimate FM is a unique
sound library for all DASHsnd compatible VST instruments*- an extensive
collection of sounds from Yamaha's classic, but notoriously difficult
to program, FS1r. HQS Vol. 1 features all the character and sounds you
would expect from a top-class FM sample set plus more thanks
to the FS1r's additional waveform features and formant filters. You
will find basses, organs, electric pianos, brass, pluck, fx and
synthesised sounds, as well as several formant sequences.
The FS1r samples were produced by UK sound
designer Rory Dow.

About the Yamaha
FS1r
The FS1r offered many enhancements to the
original DX range of FM synths produced by Yamaha. The operators are
more comprehensive, offering 8 waveforms, as opposed to the single sine
wave of the older machines (such as the DX7).
As well as these 8 'voiced' operators, it
has an additional 8 'unvoiced' operators, which
are basically noise generators (you could call it a 16 operator FM
synth!). The FS1r also features 88
frequency modulation algorithms, a comprehensive FX section, resonant
filters (a first for an FM synth), and formant sequencing.
Today, these synths are rarely seen on the
second
hand market. Those who own them, keep them! They are often listed
amongst the favourite synths of IDM artists, such as Plaid and Autechre.
FS1r is a trademark of Yamaha Corp.
