VCV FMco

VCV FMco

A fully featured emulation of our new FMco module is now available in VCV Rack with the exact same 2-operator FM voice engine and features as its hardware counterpart.

The FMco is a compact FM synthesis based VCO and voice. It features our own original 2-operator FM synthesis DSP implementation inspired by our ‘Akemie’ modules but tuned for more immediate use and a more modern sound. It includes both manual and voltage control over FM Index, Ratio and a selection of classic operator waveforms for a wide palette of FM sounds from a simple set of controls. A built-in decay envelope is routed to both FM depth and output level, allowing the FMco to function as a full synth voice when triggered. The FMco also includes CV-controlled four-voice chords, an encoder-based tuning system for easy accurate pitch control, and a stereo-widened output, delivering a large amount of FM synthesis all in just 8HP.

It can be purchased for $15 from the VCV Rack store here alongside many of our other popular modules in software form. Info on all our available modules for VCV Rack is here.
