Omri Cohen
If you want to step (deeper) into modular synthesis, Omri Cohen is one of the best teachers for that on YouTube. If you should not know, VCV Rack is a free software version for modular synthesis and there’s an iOS port available called MiRack.
FM Synthesis
Frequency modulation synthesis (or FM synthesis) is a form of sound synthesis where the frequency of a waveform, called the carrier, is changed by modulating its frequency with a modulator. Most famously, the Yamaha DX7 synth features this type of synthesis. Learn how to sound design with this method and check out free alternative synth plugins.
Music SDP
The Music and Sound Design Platform (also referred to as Music_SDP and MSDP) is free and open-source software built for electronic and electroacoustic music performance, production, improvisation, and experimentation. Music_SDP is a DAPE, or Digital Audio Performance Environment, functioning similarly to a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), but designed with a special modular structure built for live performances. MSDP provides a non-linear, infinitely expandable, totally hackable, easy-to-use interface for sound design that encourages and rewards exploration and experimentation. It is a great platform for beginners and professionals alike, and provides all the tooling and control needed to make wild new sounds, build complex sonic projects, and execute flawless performances.
Vamp PlugIns
Vamp PlugIns need a host like Sonic Visualizer and offer many interesting features to process audio files. For example MIDI data can be extracted, to mention only one.
THESE ARE ALL FREE.
Install on Win 10 64 Bit: Use 32 Bit version and move (/create) folder Program Files(x86/Vamp Plugins and copy plugin data into there.
