Classic FM Sounds Reimagined on the Elektron Digitone – with Free DX7-ish Sound Pack for Digitone

Описание: In April 2022, I bought my first FM synth: An Elektron Digitone. To learn how FM sound design works, I decided to try to recreate some classic FM sounds, mostly from the 1980s; more specifically, the years 1984 to 1986, which were drenched in Yamaha DX7 sounds. You can hear some results in this video, and download most sounds for free here:

Sorry for using DT as short version of “Digitone” in the vid ... DT is normally rather used for the DigiTakt, Digitone would be DN instead.
