- A quick dive into 4 different flavors of FM synthesis in VCV Rack 2, using two vanilla oscillators and the VCO from Bogaudio.
In Part I we'll compare exponential FM to linear FM.
In Part II we'll compare through-zero FM to Phase Modulation.
Here is the link to Part II:

Yes, thank you for explaining in a more intuitive fashion. The mathematics might give a more precise explanation, but that imvolves yet another "language" to translate in my mind.
When you showed at 200/400/800 it clicked in my head what was happening. Thanks Jakub!
Ive been working on this some more, and a great tool for teaching this form of synthesis is the spectrograph! you can immediately see whats going on visually. NYSTHI Spectre is a good in-library option, and more sophisticated spectrograms are available as vsts...
Hey thanks for the idea/insight. Now I'm excited to go experiment.
This is very interesting. Thanks!
Same form mewith 200_400_800 - so in a sense "volt" is linear - 1 volt per oct, and frequency is exp as double per oct.
If we started at 1 we would get 1-2-4-8....256-512... that would be very close to 261 and 523!
this is awesome!! i was researching this a while ago because i was trying to do FM (linear) with nysthi add/mult going into a vco v/oct input, but had some problems… turns out the v/oct input is exponential and not linear, so i wasnt getting the sound i wanted, even though it was technically FM
at minute 6:15 you mixed up the word linear with exponential
