Glitchmachines Skein: FM Synthesizer Overview

Skein is FM synthesizer focused on experimental sound design and electronic music production! Skein features 4 operators with skew controls and noise, as well as flexible modulation matrix with per-cell modulation, per-operator feedback and 8 user-definable algorithm presets. Key parameters can be targeted by numerous modulation sources such as 4 LFOs with 15 wave shapes, 4 modulation sequencers with various utilities and up to 32 steps and 4 multi-mode envelopes. Easily shape and polish patches via 2 versatile multi-mode filters, as well as an effects processing chain that features 4 multi-effects with local randomizers and reconfigurable chain order interface. Much like our other creative audio plugins, we’ve taken an unconventional approach with Skein. Instead of replicating the classic digital FM synths of past, we set out to create new instrument that is primarily focused on sound design and sonic experimentation. With multitude of powerful modulation sources and variety of processors such as distortion, bit crusher, chorus, phaser, delay, reverb and buffer effects, Skein is capable of generating an incredibly diverse and expressive range of tones and timbres.
