Spektro Komplex is a MaxforLive synthesizer designed to create complex and unique sounds. Like the Buchla 261e module, Komplex uses two oscillators to produce FM sounds. What really makes this synth stand out is it's habilities to morph the waveform of the first oscillator (carrier) and use a different waveform for the second oscillator (modulator). The frequency of the second oscillator (modulator) is calculated based on the operation: Oscillator 1 Frequency (operation) Ratio = Oscillator 2 Frequency For example: If the frequency of the first oscillator is 220Hz, the operation is set to multiplication, and the ratio is set to 2, the frequency of the second oscillator will be 440Hz. A variable offset can also be added to the resulting frequency. 3 different effects that can be used to further manipulate the sound: - Shape: fold, wrap or clip the signal. - Overdrive - Spread: creates a stereo-widening effect by delaying the right channel. You can use Spektro Komplex to create anything from classic FM bass to metallic percussion sounds. It's also a great tool for sound designer who want to create complex synthetic sounds.
