## fmpercfl

fmpercfl — Uses FM synthesis to create a percussive flute sound.

## Description

Uses FM synthesis to create a percussive flute sound. It comes from a family of FM sounds, all using 4 basic oscillators and various architectures, as used in the TX81Z synthesizer.

## Syntax

    ares fmpercfl kamp, kfreq, kc1, kc2, kvdepth, kvrate, ifn1, ifn2, \
          ifn3, ifn4, ivfn

## Initialization

All these opcodes take 5 tables for initialization. The first 4 are the basic inputs and the last is the low frequency oscillator (LFO) used for vibrato. The last table should usually be a sine wave.

The initial waves should be:

- ifn1 -- sine wave

- ifn2 -- sine wave

- ifn3 -- sine wave

- ifn4 -- sine wave

## Performance

kamp -- Amplitude of note.

kfreq -- Frequency of note played.

kc1, kc2 -- Controls for the synthesizer:

- kc1 -- Total mod index

- kc2 -- Crossfade of two modulators

- Algorithm -- 4

kvdepth -- Vibrator depth

kvrate -- Vibrator rate

## Examples

Here is an example of the fmpercfl opcode. It uses the file fmpercfl.csd.
