Xen-Arts Virtual Instrument Announcement | Xen-FMTS 2


Xen-FMTS 2 is a 4 Operator FM Synthesis VSTi with a specialized set of features for computer musicians interested in exploring the vast expressive possibilities of making music with alternative intonation systems. It is a freeware 32-bit plugin instrument for Windows that includes 115 patches, 55 microtunings and 56 partials files.

Microtuning Features
Internally loads and externally receives both MTS (MIDI Tuning Standard) Bulk Dump and Single Note Microtuning Files
Operator ratios can easily be set to values that are coincident with the microtuning being used, thereby producing intonation related sidebands in the timbre of the instrument
Microtonal pitch-bend ranges may be configured in cents, harmonics and superparticular ratios
Arbitrary microtonal pitch shifting makes it possible to easily pitch transpose the oscillators in both octave and non-octave increments
FM-RM Oscillator
4 Operator FM Synthesis with Ring-Modulation
57 Operator Algorithms
11 different Operator Waveforms
Analog Pitch Drift Emulator
Transposition by cents offsets
Partials text files may be used to quantize the frequency ratios of the operators to user specified values
Velocity-to-Harmonics Modulation enables oscillators to dynamically sound harmonics of the fundamental pitch
Modulators
Seven dedicated hybrid modulators for Operators A, B, C, D, Filters, Amplifier and Pitch
Each modulator includes an ADSR style envelope generator, and an LFO which can be switched to run at audio-rate
Each ADSR Envelope Generator features Per-Stage Keyboard Tracking
LFOs can either be synchronized to the host DAW tempo or set in Hertz. They include 24 Waveforms, a Slewer and can be switched to run at audio-rate
