I was using FM8 and its fucking deep and can definately make some sweet sounds, but I was trying use it for live performance use and IMO it sucks for that. Too complex. Maybe I just couldnt configure it correctly. Circle Synth is far better for live performance.

In terms of programming it, it seems really tricky at first but I rekon once you 'get' how the chaining works its not really much different to operator in function, imo operators layout better (perhaps not quite as deep tho), I just like how its structured.

Imo the complexity is figuring how to get the sound you want through the chains.

Would be keen to talk about it, your probably better @ it them I am as I didnt spend much time to learn it. (msn: revenant40k@hotmail.com)
