Learn to use the citrus virtual instrument in FL Studio. Master the basics of frequency modulation synthesis to design expressive sounds for your productions.
Explore the citrus virtual instrument from image-line, its six operators and fm architecture with phase modulation, and learn to tune unison, envelopes, and the modulation matrix for patches.
Explore the Sytrus modulation matrix, learning how operators modulate each other, route signals through filters, and apply AM, FM, and ring modulation to craft evolving sounds.
Explore the Sytrus operator editor by shaping operator one’s waveform, phase, and frequency, and apply envelopes and modulation via the modulation matrix to craft rich harmonic sounds.
Explore Sytrus filters in FL Studio, including low-pass and high-pass types, routed through operator one. Use envelopes on the cut to sculpt musical sounds, with state files for experimentation.
in this lecture we discuss how apply effects to your sound within Sytrus
Explore MiniSID by De La Mancha in this free VSTO episode, using two oscillators (square, saw, triangle) with no polyphony and an arpeggio option for chiptune melodies and bass lines.
Explore synthmaster cm, a free mini version of synth master from computer music magazine, with presets and a two-oscillator architecture. Experiment with waveforms, distortion, and filter to shape diverse sounds.
In this course Alex Merced will teach you about how to use the Image-Line VST Instrument, Sytrus. From using it's modulation matrix, filters, and more you will learn the ins and outs of this quite robust musical instrument.
As bonus content there are videos of Alex Merced reviewing some other VST instruments that are freely available to spice up your productions.
This course will also allow you to better understand Frequency Modulation Synthesis which can later be applied to other instruments such as Native Instruments FM8 and De La Manchas FMMF.
