Synthesis process evidence

Below include information on the synthesis processes incorporated within the composition. You may add any media that is appropriate using the block menu on the left-hand-side.

The synths I used:

Yamaha DX7- I used original patches such as the:

ROM1A Master- I used the bass sounds from this sound patch throughout the composition to get the original 80s feel to my composition.

Yamaha MODX7- I used the MODX7 because it is a significantly more advanced synthesiser with a much more powerful FM synthesis engine, offering more operators, algorithms, and features compared to the older DX7 meaning I could get the same sounds but it did sound the same as the classics giving it a more punchy feel.

Alchemy- This is a pre built in plug in that comes with logic giving you a more in depth understanding with synthesis compared to the retro synth plug in, it also aloud me to dig deeper and tweaker certain sound I liked and didn’t like in the oscillators.
