FM+ Update for Multiphonics CV-3

This new version (v3.1), a thematic update dedicated to FM synthesis, brings four new modules to the Multiphonics library: the FM Core Operator module, a building block used in the creation of complex digital FM patches; the REZ oscillator, an original digital waveform generator; a new envelope generator module; and a comprehensive spectrum analyzer for signal visualization.

This update coincides with the release of FM Core, a new Multiphonics sound pack (sold separately) by sound designer and long-time collaborator Adam Pietruszko, drawing inspiration from iconic ’80s pop and showcasing these new modules in unique patches.

This update is free of charge for Multiphonics CV-3 registered users.
