您知道 DX7 不是 FM 合成器吗？
从技术角度来看，像 DX7 这样的“FM 合成器”并不是真正的 FM 合成器。相反，它们使用一种有时类似的声音技术（称为相位调制 (PM)）来产生声音。出于营销原因，DX7 被宣传为“FM 合成器”。后来，许多其他公司在营销中采用了这个流行但技术上不正确的术语。
Neo-FM：FM 合成的未来
Neo-FM 不仅仅是一个营销流行语。 Nemesis 预示着 FM 合成的下一个进化步骤：NeoFM 合成。
数字和模拟 - 两全其美：
数字合成器，尤其是 FM/PM 合成器可能会出现混叠。实际上，这意味着，用高音调播放的音色听起来可能不悦耳，而且有金属感，因为它们包含不应该存在的频率。
一些模拟合成器可以产生真正的 FM。它们不会出现混叠，但会受到振荡器略微失谐（漂移）的影响。这会导致非常不和谐的 FM 边带。大多数这些声音在音乐上都无法使用。
创新的 NeoFM 方法结合了两者的优势，而没有各自的弱点。现在比以往任何时候都更容易获得出色的音质。
大幅扩展的声音范围：
像 DX7 这样的传统“FM 合成器”的声音范围有限。它们只能使用不包含高频的正弦波或非常沉闷的波形产生良好的效果。当使用大量 FM 调制时，衰减波形有助于掩盖混叠。
Nemesis 没有此限制，能够正确处理所有波形。最后，您可以轻松使用任何波形作为 FM 或 PM 调制的源或目标！它甚至可以处理短样本或极长且复杂的波形。还可以导入 .wav 格式的自己的波形。您可以使用加法频谱编辑器创建新波形或修改现有波形。
Nemesis 可以处理比竞争合成器更大的 FM 调制深度和更宽的频率范围，因为它不会因混叠而听起来不协调。所有这些加在一起大大扩展了声音范围，并允许其他合成器无法发出的声音。
真正的高端音质：
为了减少混叠，竞争对手的一些更先进的 FM 合成器使用 2 倍或 4 倍过采样。这增加了 CPU 要求，但仍然不能使它们完全无混叠。另一方面，Nemesis 提供完美的音质，使用 70000x 过采样！
低 CPU 要求：
专家可能会怀疑在当今的计算机上是否能实现如此高的质量，因为它们的速度太慢了。然而，有了 Nemesis，我们就能证明事实并非如此。我们使用对多核 CPU、预处理、FFT 变换和巧妙的 DSP 技巧的原生支持，以低 CPU 使用率实现完美的音质。
Nemesis can do classic digital synthesis methods as well as a new approach called 'NeoFM'. NeoFM is more powerful and easier to program than traditional FM. It offers superior sound quality. A warm and creamy signature-sound is generated by its engine.
Sounds and synthesis
Nemesis® comes with a huge and inspiring sound library, built by professional sound designers.
Nemesis features pristine tonal quality and offers sonic possibilities far beyond the scope of conventional digital synthesizers. A uniquely silky signature sound is generated by its engine. The synthesizer is capable of providing warm, smooth, and creamy tones as well as the classic metallic and cold sounds FM synthesis is known for. Nemesis has a huge sonic range, since it is capable to do a massive number of digital synthesis-methods:
Neo-FM (an innovative approach exclusive to Nemesis)
"FM-synthesis" (known from the phase-modulation in the Yamaha DX series)
True FM-synthesis (known from analog synths)
PM (true alias-free phase-modulation)
Waveshaping (known from the Korg 01/W)
Additive synthesis (known from the Kawai K1)
Phase-Distortion (known from the Casio CZ)
Formant-Synthesis (known from the Yamaha FS1R)
Crossblending Waveforms (known from the Waldorf Microwave)
PWM (unlike conventional synths Nemesis can do PWM with any Waveform, not just Squarewaves)
Ring-Modulation
Resynthesis of Waveforms
Resonance (exclusive to Nemesis)
The combination of the different synthesis-methods and the possibility to import your own content open up undreamt-of possibilities for you.
Several play-modes such as polyphonic, mono & legato, true 4x stereo unison complement the wide range of synthesis-modes and waveforms. Your possibilities are litterally unlimited.
Did you know that the DX7 is no FM-synth?
From a technical perspective, "FM synthesizers" like the DX7 are not really FM synths. Instead, they use a sometimes similar sounding technique called phase-modulation (PM) to generate sounds. The DX7 was advertised as a "FM synthesizer" for marketing reasons. Later many other companies adopted this popular but technically incorrect term in their marketing.
Neo-FM: The future of FM Synthesis
Neo-FM is not just a marketing buzzword. Nemesis heralds the next evolutionary step in FM synthesis: NeoFM synthesis.
Digital and analog - the best of both worlds combined:
Digital synthesizers and especially FM/PM synths can suffer from aliasing. This means in practise, that patches that are played with a high pitch can sound unpleasant and metallic, as they contain frequencies that shouldn't be there.
A couple of analog synthesizers can produce true FM. They do not suffer from aliasing, but they do suffer from slightly detuned oscillators (drift). This leads to very disharmonic FM sidebands. Most of these sounds are musically unusable.
The innovative NeoFM approach combines the advantages of both worlds without taking on their respective weaknesses. It's now easier than ever to achieve great-sounding results.
Dramatically expanded sonic range:
Traditional "FM synths" like the DX7 have a limited sonic range. They can only produce good results with sine-waves or very dull waveforms that don't contain high frequencies. The damped waveforms help to camouflage the aliasing when a higher amount of FM modulation is used.
Nemesis does not have this limitation and is able to handle all waveforms properly. Finally, you can use any waveform as a source or destination for FM or PM modulation without a headache! It even works with short samples or extremely long and complex waveforms. It is also possible to import your own waveforms in .wav format. You can use the additive spectrum editor to create new waveforms or modify existing ones.
Nemesis can handle a greater FM-modulation-depth and wider frequency-range than competing synthesizers, as it never sounds awkward due to aliasing. The sum of all this dramatically expands the sonic range and allows sounds impossible with other synthesizers.
True high-end sound quality:
To reduce aliasing, some more advanced FM synthesizers from the competition use 2x or 4x oversampling. This increases CPU requirements but still doesn't make them completely alias-free. Nemesis, on the other hand, offers perfect sound quality, using 70000x oversampling!
Low CPU requirements:
Experts may doubt that such high quality is even possible on today's computers, as they would be far too slow for it. However, with Nemesis we are able to prove otherwise. We use native support for multi-core CPUs, preprocessing, FFT transforms and clever DSP tricks to achieve perfect sound quality with low CPU usage.
