I appreciate the input and would totally agree with you if the title was "learning fm synthesis" but it's not. The whole purpose of the video is to get people to jump in and start creating patches from scratch because so many people don't even use certain synths because of perceived difficulty and as a result, we hear a bunch of recycled presets and sounds that everybody uses on so many records. At the end of the day, I was able to make a dope patch extremely fast using a perceived to be difficult synth and have gotten a lot of positive feedback from people that actually did what I did in the video and learned a lot. But I will take your advice and read the manual to learn every aspect of the synth. As long as people strive to be creative and authentic in their sound design and find my content useful and helpful in pursuing that, I don't really worry about the people that don't find it helpful because it's just not for them and I'm ok with that. Peace!
Peace.
But then why did you post that video in the context of sayíng the FM synthesis - that you apparantly know nothing about - is easy?
And why not teach the FM synthesis, that you according to your first post have learned to be easy, instead of keeping people away from it, as that is the barrier, that you actually claim, you wan't to break down with your video - or what? It make no sense, except you wan't subscribers.
I was clearly spot on in my first post.
The fact still is, that you say things in the video that show, that you have absolutely no idea about how the synth structure is, or about how the signal flow is, about FM synthesis, or about what you are doing.
It's does'nt matter what the video is about, as it has some very wrong informations anyway.
It's not even the easiest way to create a none FM synthesis 2 saw detuned sound in DX7 V, if that's what you want to do. It''s actually not, what you are doing. (EDIT - i see you now write PWM techniques in your text for the video and dropped detune/ PWM, but that's not the correct description of what you are doing. either, even if it can sound like it. A PWM like - and actual a vintage way of doing a PWM like effect on synth that did'nt have PWM, can also be done easier. The thing is you talk about detune and finding sweetspots for a level in the video, and that's it. EDIT END.)
What is it you are doing, with that operator 2? I know, but it does'nt look like you know, what you are doing. Is that what the video is about? If not, then why do you spend so much time with it, and spend time with given misinformations about other operators in your sound?
After reading the manual, you should be able to understand, that you make absolutely no sense in the video, and do wrong teaching.
A very long video to learn nothing or to learn wrong things, that is what it is.
And you clearly want to appear like you know about this stuff. There is nothing that indicate you know about this stuff.
You clearly also think, you are making educational videos. You are not. You misinform.
Some can be taught a cars gas pedal is the break pedal and the other way around, and be happy about it, and feel they have learned something, untill they find out, that the teaching was totally wrong. After that they may have learn to do it correct, based on the wrong result, if they have survived. So if someone say they learned something, then i think that's the reason.
It's allways possible to learn something, also from others mistakes.
You are responsible for doing correct teaching, if that's what you wan't. That also mean to correct and remove wrong teaching.
I still will not recommend anyone to take any learning from the video or to subscribe your playlist.
Again - please remove the video from the web, if you wan't to claim you do educational videos.
