Fiche technique

  • Fabricant : Ixox
  • Modèle : PreenFM3
  • Catégorie : Synthétiseurs numériques en rack
  • Fiche créée le : 11/12/2020

Description

  • Several independent instruments (4 for preenfm2 and 6 for preenfm3).
  • Powerful arpeggiator (Mutable-Instruments opensource algorithm) per instrument.
    • 1 gate effect
    • 4 rapid access performance parameters
    • The 4 instruments can be saved all at the same time in combo presets.
    • Each instrument has its own modifiable midi channel. They can share the same for FAT multiple timbres notes.
    • 28 FM algorithms from 3 to 6 operators
    • preenfm2 : 1 effect Slot per instrument (chose among 32 filters such as LP, HP, formant, crusher…)
  • pfm3 has 16 voices what ever the number of operators is (pfm2 has 8 voices with 6 operators / 14 voices with 3 operators FM algorithm.). Each voices has:
    • 7 low frequency modulators (3 LFOs, 2 enveloppes, 2 step sequencers).
    • 12 matrix rows : 16 sources, 32 destination (LP, HP, gate, stereo, MI, attack…)
    • Arpeggiator, LFOs and step sequencers synchronizable on external midi clock or internal clock.
    • preenfm3 : Effect is per voice
  • Operator features:
    • 7 builtin waveforms + 6 user waveforms read from the usb drive.
    • Stereo panning (at the carrier operator level)
    • 8 envelope parameters per operator. Time and level for 4 envelope points.
  • Direct Scala scale file loading for microtonality. Up to 128 Scala scales selectable. pfm3 allows a different scala scale per instrument.
  • Modular Randomizer
  • Midi over USB
  • Custom bootloader to make firmware upgrade easy
  • USB powered
  • Comprehensive user interface. pfm2 has a 4×20 characters display, pfm3 has a 240×320 color TFT display.
  • Small, portable and easy to build
  • PreenFM3 only : A built-in 6 voices sequencer (step mode and real time).
  • PreenFM3 only : A mixer part.
    • The 6 instruments can use any of the 6 independant audio output (mono or stereo)
    • Microtonal scale per instrument.
    • Midi split and filter per instrument

FAQ

I'm looking for a DX7 emulation, should i build a preenfm3 ?

Short answer : No.

The preenfm can read DX7 file but the emulation is not great. The internal engine is very different.
Don't buy it if you're after a DX7 sound.
But if you're after a powerfull polyphonic FM synth with a flexible 12 rows modulation matrix and lots of LFO, a graphical display and a clear animated user interface : Go :)

Is the preenfm3 firmware open source ?

yes.

Is the preenfm3 open hardware ?

The main PCB is not. I need to sell PCBs to cover the expenses of all the prototypes i ordered for the preenfm3.
The control board is open hardware. So you can customize it adding new buttons, leds, encoders, pot etc...
I’ll also provide a version of the enclosure for 3D printing.

What are the differences with the preenfm2 ?

  • More powerful MCU with more memory which allowed me to :

    • increase the number of voices to 16 with 6 operators FM
    • sample frequency is 48Khz vs 42Khz for the preenfm2.
    • The selected effect is now applied per voice and not for the full instrument
    • 6 independent instruments
  • Unison mode (will be ported to the preenfm2 when i have free time).

  • 240×320 pixels color TFT display for better UI and an oscilloscope.

  • Midi filter and note shift per instrument.

  • Scala scale per instrument.

  • 3 dual channel 24 bits DAC to offer 6 independent audio outputs.

  • Mixer section (Volume, pan, compressor per instrument)

  • Sequencer section : real-time and step sequencer
