FM7
With the FM7 Native Instruments makes complete
FM-Synthesis available in a software instrument for the first
time. The FM7 is a worthy successor to the popular FM synths
of yesteryear. It can import and faithfully reproduce any sound
program in the standard FM sound formats. But the FM7 goes far
beyond emulating the classics. Its extended synthesis architecture
includes a filter operator for analog warmth and a distortion
operator for adding grit. A high-class effects section, audio
input, digital waveforms and powerful modulation capabilities
complete the long list of features.

FM7 Features:
Native Instruments FM7 Software Synth (Macintosh and Windows)
The FM7 takes the legendary sound of FM synthesis to a new level.
Not only does the FM7 read the complete sound library from the
classic FM synths, but it goes far beyond emulation. It adds
distortion and filter operators, extensive modulation capabilities,
a comprehensive effects section, audio input and much more to
the traditional FM architecture. The user interface of the FM7
makes it comfortable and easy to explore the fascinating new
possibilities of FM – Native style.
Reproducing the FM classics
The lively and punchy FM sounds were a breakthrough in sound
synthesis when they were first introduced in the early eighties.
Nowadays, their special aesthetics are still highly appreciated
by musicians and producers worldwide. FM sounds complement the
sounds of analog and virtual analog synthesizers very well.
The FM7 can read all programs from the original DX7, DX7-II,
DX11, TX81Z, DX21, DX27, DX100, TX802 and reproduce the sounds
of these machines exactly.
Extended sound processing and effects
The FM7 is more than an emulation. Enjoy the authenticity of
the classic presets, and then transform them into something
completely new. For example, each of the operators of the FM7
offers many waveforms besides sine. Additionally, a distortion
operator with noise and an analog filter operator complement
the waveform operators and increase the sonic range of the FM7,
far beyond classic FM synthesis. Unlike the classic, FM routing
can be set freely – you are not limited to preset algorithms.
The effect section of the FM7 offers high quality stereo chorus,
flanging and delay effects.
Graphical editing
The advanced graphical editors of the FM7 offer intuitive access
to FM synthesis. It’s never been that easy to discover
the enormous sound potential of frequency modulation
