I recommended the Editor because it makes it really easy to map
physical controllers on the Fader Fox to internal parameters in
the FS1R.? It's much simpler than menu diving on the FS1R.

Thanks for having me.? I've had an fs1r for only a few weeks, although I've wanted one for years! I'm here to learn more about it, understand how to program it and so on.? I'm interested to know about possibilities for external controllers.? I have A LOT of vintage synths and drum machines and make an assortment of music, mainly acid trax.? I'm looking forward to contributing to this group! Thanks again ??

Hi Guys, I finally have a Piano patch working most of the way.? I wrote an article on it and put a link to the patch and some demo mp3's on my web page.? You can find it here:? The patch has some short comings, mostly slight balance issues in the different registers.? It's not a perfect Piano, but overall I think it sounds pretty good.? I've listened to it too much though, my objectivity is getting blurred.? I decided to stop working on it and get some comments on it instead.? Any interest guys?

Re: Welcome! Please announce your arrival here.
Hello !
My name is Anders and I have an fs1r that I really like, I also have an EX5 with flash memory as well as a not yet mounted scsi-card. Other Yamaha gear I have includes, two KX88, a Motif XS7, a Motif XS Rack, an AN1 and an A3000 sampler and a SPX990 and probably some more Y-gear that i've forgotten.. My first synth experience was with a brand new DX7 when they were launched and I still like them but mostly using opensource Dexed for that. I run everything in my studio as well as on live gigs on Linux and all the editors for my gear has been running great in Linux with Wine.
I hope this group will grow and stay for a long time.

Re: Which Editor are you using to Edit de FS1R ?
Hi Thor,
I think many FS1R users will be very curious how you are going to
incorporate your findings into a great sounding pianopatch.
Many thanks? to your ongoing persute to accomplish this!
Let us knows your progression.

Hi Hans,
I'm thinking of using groups of harmonics, with each set offset

There isn't any way to get a progressive fan naturally in FM,
but we can approximate it.? I have the Piano harmonics laid out
in a spreadsheet, so I know what the spacing should be.? I also
have some recordings of the sympathetic resonance, the
background sound in a Piano, that should help it sound more

Hi Hans,
Inharmonicity is technically an expanding fan of harmonics
like this:

See how the harmonic peaks get wider and wider apart as you
go higher and higher in frequency?? This one is really
exaggerated, off the Yamaha VP1.? The next one is from a
Trombone, it's pretty normal, no inharmonicity.

Both of these plots are for the same pitched note.?
Inharmonicity does not simply mean dissonant harmonics, it
means a specific arrangement of dissonant harmonics.? The
term was coined by researchers back in and 80's and
popularized by Yamaha back when they were working on the
Yamaha VP1 in the 90's.? The Piano is the prime example of
inharmonicity in research papers.

Re: Which Editor are you using to Edit de FS1R ?
Hi Guys
I agree with you Thor regarding Formant Shaping it is only on the FS1r and it is really great (I also like the FDSP only found on the Yamaha EX5/R)
What I think is great on the EssenceFM is the way it has been structured With the 300 voices of polyphony you can have (e.g. a mono patch using 300 layers so the Manny's Piano Sound could be achieve easily)
I am using almost all Wind Controllers (AKAI EWI serie, Aodyo Sylphyo, Roland Aerophone, I use to have WX7 and WX5 from Yamaha before they failed and I have ordered the new Berglund Instrument NuRAD just released. I try to play all my synths using wind Controller (including the Yamaha EX5R (). (sorry it is in French)
I am glad to talk to FS1R specialist I got mine recently second hand but in perfect condition
Many thanks
Regards Fred

Thanks Guys!
I've talked with Manny and I'm familiar with his Piano patch.? He
did the ones on the FS1R too.? I've been digging into the Yamaha
VP1 lately (yes I said the VP1, Manny has access to one right
now!) and I think there is a way to match the Piano even closer...
Inharmonicity is the key.? The harmonics of the Piano spread out
slightly as you go higher in frequency, and I think we can get
close to that on the FS1R.? You can only see the spread on a
spectrum analyzer if you measure the peaks and put them into a
spreadsheet, which I've done.? I think we can do a killer Piano
patch.? I haven't had time to try it yet, though.??? I'll see if I
can fit that in in the next few months.
Saxfred, I have a wind controller too, a BC3 on my Yamaha VL7.
The Kodamo Essence is really nice, but it just doesn't have
Formants... I really like Formants.? The Montage and MODX don't
have them either, which is odd.? They have the rest of the FS1R in
there, so why leave out the Formants?

Hi Fred and Thor!
Yes i use the same application as Thor does wich is the best for
your FS1R!
Thor has also the best FM tutorial on the planet for instrument
emulation! Great work!
I wonder if Thor has already tried to make the best Piano patch
there is for the FS1R?
For the Montage and like there is a very good patch written bij
Manny Fernandez.
If we could translate that patch to FS1R then we would be
close...
You can find it here:

It would certainly make
my day if this patch could be translated for FS1R ;)
Greetings and good luck!

Hi Fred,
I use the free K-Take FS1R editor.? It works great!? There
are both PC and Mac versions.
I've spent a lot of time learning how to program the FS1R,
I've written an FM-Programming Guide which you can download
off my website.? It goes into the FS1R in the latter chapters
on FM-X and Formants.?
Best Regards,? Thor

Re: Which Editor are you using to Edit de FS1R ?
OK Hans, I went and listened to Manny's first video on his Piano
patch... Holy Moly, Batman!? He's created eight entirely different
patches which are mixed together to get his single Piano sound.?
We don't have eight Parts in an FS1R, we only have four.? It would
take two FS1R's to implement his Montage Piano patch.? Sorry.
All is not lost, though.? Manny is from the "add more and more
stuff until it sounds right" school of thought.? Most people are
this way, actually.? But wouldn't it be more efficient if you
targeted a Piano sound right out of the box?? I think so.? I'm
going to have to work on this myself, to see what I can come up
with.
He uses the term 'inharmonicity' wrong too, but that's ok.? Only
engineers and researchers actually know what it really means.? But
he should know better, I explained it in detail in my paper on the
VP1, which he read.? He made a lot of red-line comments too, which
I very carefully corrected.? He knows a lot about the internal
Yamaha VL1/VP1 politics which I could only speculate on.? Anyway.

I guess you both have seen the new FM module issued by with there EssenceFMlooks like it is more easy to program than the FS1r but I really love this synth. Thanks for your help
Take care Fred
