This is an amazing tutorial; I've been using Deflemask for a few years now but only casually; now that I'm making a game soundtrack I found this really useful getting into the details of the Genesis FM engine as it's not anything like the DX7 that I'm used to in terms of things like SSG-EG. I still watched all of the sections because it was super entertaining :)
Thank you for the kind words, and I am glad the tutorial helped. What is your game about? It would be fun to check out your music when you're ready to share.
I was confused on where to begin with Deflemask in the beginning, especially with Genesis/Megadrive music tracking. That changed now by viewing this tutorial and some helpful reading of the manual as well. Though watching this video (Two or three times, gave me a good foundation on FM Synthesis, Deflemask's tracker and creation of instruments) Thank you very much Mr. Matthew Ivic for your deep and broad teachings on how to properly make Genesis music. Please keep up the good work :)
@@MatthewIvic No problem and thanks to you for helping all of us get started on this. I've already made some neat instruments and a basic song to build up this morning. :D
im struggling to learn but i have made a cover a couple years back, had no idea what i was doing but ive been using soundfonts on FL studio. i want to move on from the SFs and actually learn how to track music. its hard because ive spent my whole life with music scrolling to the right, or reading it from left to write lol. i got this. thank you for the amazing video. your humor and the educational mix is unique and amazing
@@neothunderx I was the same way too bro, using the Megadrive soundfont a lot and not relying on the real deal. Felt pretty fake but Deflemask solves that quick :)
I love your comedy along the way. Some of the tracker is very daunting to me because my brain really hates anything mathy so when you were describing irrational rhythm I was like "ow such math" but you made it less stressful because of your jokes. Awesome tutorial!!
Wasn't expecting this at all, but a welcome surprise! I've never used DefleMask but have been considering it recently. Thanks for the information, Matthew.
Appreciate that! Yeah, these things take a ton of time! I think it's worth it to try and educate/entertain people, though. More resources = better odds people are empowered to create stuff!
@@MatthewIvic Hi Matthew, enjoyed your tutorial. On deflemask there is any way to import mid/mp3/wav and the tool convert into the sound composing? And...Do you know if I find the hex section of a MD song on a Hex Editor , I can change something? Me and some new MD hackers are changing game voices/sounds on apps like SoundForge. Thanks, Nelson
Unfortunately, you can't import midi/mp3/wav. Not sure about editing a MD song directly through a Hex Editor. Goes a bit beyond my knowledge. Good luck, though!
You explained everything so clear man! Thanks!!! Im gonna watch this multiple times a day, i will give you a follow to your channel!💪🏿 ps. My English writing is not very good my apolegies haha
This is great! I've been looking to get into making 16-bit music with Deflemask, and this helps a lot! By the way, really liked your tutorials and book on using Famitracker. Any chance you would possibly make a similar book for using Deflemask?
Thanks, Scribbler! Working on a couple projects at the moment, so no plans to write a DefleMask book...yet. :) I'll keep it in mind though. In the meantime, let me know if you have any questions with DefleMask; I enjoy helping out where I can. Oh, and thanks for checking out FamiTracker Fundamentals. It's nice to provide value.
@@MatthewIvic thanks, Matthew! Mainly, I've been trying to learn Deflemask to make Sega Genesis, NES and Game Boy styles of music... and it's a bit difficult for me to figure out how to do so. I understand Famitracker pretty well, but I have trouble translating it over to Deflemask. That's my big issue (outside of generally just learning FM synthesis to make 16-bit music.)
If you're used to FamiTracker, I'm guessing the DefleMask interface isn't troubling you too much? I'd look into writing short pieces (maybe only a couple frames long), and deconstructing premade FM instruments (figure out what makes instruments you like sound the way they do). See if that helps a bit.
Try programming the DAC Enable effect "17" with value "01" in FM channel 6. The samples are mapped chromatically; this means if the snare is the first sample you loaded, you should be able to program it into FM channel 6 with the Z key on your computer keyboard (the input note of C). Hope that helps!
🌟 How to conect the Deflemask to one Keyboar? I have a Keyboar/Digital Piano and use a Usb b and Otg to conect the Kayboard and the smartphone. But it do not recognize. 😐 What I must to be? How to enable the Midi?
The short answer is yes. :) The ssg-eg uses different patterns that retrigger your ADSR envelope. If there is a sustain level set for your envelope, when a note is held, it hasn't completed a full ADSR cycle. The held note will play at the sustain level. You won't hear the different ssg-eg patterns. Hope that helps.
You are right! I should have included more information on STDs: They're quite communicable after all. :-p Jokes aside...I thought FM synthesis was more interesting, and I felt I had already crammed enough stuff into this video. Basically, you draw an envelope, you set an arpeggio if you want, and you win. That's about it...I guess there's the noise channel, too, if you want to mess around with that. DONE! XD
Thank you for the tutorial! I downloaded the software only to realize that its a bit too advanced for me to use. One thing I can't understand is how do you uninstall it? It doesn't show up on the add/remove programs list on windows 10. I could not find any information about this in the manual or on the web. Any suggestions? Thank you for any help...
Ok so the instruments are fine now(ish). But whenever I try to make a remix, it never sounds like the original song; it always sounds terrible. Advice? :(
really good tutorial, but for some reason i can't get the percussion to sound the same as it does in the video. i've copied the instruments exactly, yet somehow it sounds very metallic. am i missing something important?
If it's too metallic, the MULT or volume of a modulating operator might be too high. Either that, or the operator configuration might be off. Hard to tell without seeing.
@@MatthewIvic thank you for the quick response, i've changed the modulator decay to be slower and it's sounding a lot better. appreciate the help for everyone wanting to get into chiptune :)
What about a tutorial on recording real instruments and converting those sounds to FM synthesis without using pre-made patch sounds? Still can’t find anything on this yet
Nice tutorial!! But why speed up the video? I can not follow at sometines not being engligh native, I put it on 0.75 and it's better, check it out. Greetings from Argentina.
Note: Your cheat sheet has a fault on the 4th page where it says "parameter decimal hexadecimal" its the other way around, maybe slow down a bit is actually faster for the learning process.
Thanks for the question, Izuki. Give the section at 2:36 a watch again. Let me know what you understand/don't understand from that section, and I'll try to fill in the rest here!
Check out the tutorial example files pack: bit.ly/DefleMaskTutorial The instrument_music.dmf has a triplet example in the first frame! Maybe that can help?
I wonder what I'm doing wrong. With percussion for example, I copied everything to try to get it to sound like you do. It doesn't sound the same. It sounds too distorted, creating an unnatural sound. Especially the open hi-hat is awful. I copied the ALG, ADSR, TL, MULT, octave, etc but it just sounds bad. I did the same for the brassy synth and it didn't have the same feeling unfortunately.
Hard to say without seeing the instrument... However, FM instruments can be pretty nuanced, so try playing around with one parameter at a time until you get something you like. You can also find instrument packs online ripped from actual games to learn from as well. Hope that helps at least.
Very good stuff, there is so little on trackers but your stuff has some of the best pacing and editing making everything you explain clear. Keep up the good work.
very good tutorial BTW I have recently wanted to make a ym2612 remix of something, anything really but I always fail at 2 things 1. Finding an instrument you don't know the name of 2. Making it not sound terrible Any advice as to what to do? =(
Thanks, CD. I would look at demo pieces that use the YM2612 and see what instruments appeal to you. After you find one you like, save a copy and start messing with it. In general, more modulator operators = more harmonic interest (i.e. crunchy, distorted, altered). When building your own instruments, I'd start with a single operator and mute everything else. Build a base sound you like and add in other operators slowly/mess with alternate configurations. Have fun with it and hope that helps! :D
Liking the tutorial so far. It really helps. I tried to download the cheat sheet in the links but for some reason when I try to add it to my cart so I can get it I kept getting the following error: " Paypal error (10525): An error (10525) occurred while processing your PayPal payment. Please contact the store owner for assistance." I made sure to turn off my adblock and javascript blocker but still kept running into the same error.
I receive that error when I click the PayPal button... Try clicking "Add to Cart" then "View Cart" (upper right corner), proceed to checkout, and finally "Place Order." That should take you to the download screen. If it still doesn't work, let me know.
i know this is what defines you but... could you not use bitcrush for your voice? like... im a latin trying to learn something that literally no one explains in spanish so i need to search in english and im not too good hearing it, and more if it has effects, i simply dont understand some parts
@@MatthewIvic i have been using it in my battleofthebits entries (nitrofurano) - it is far easier to interoperate with other trackers, as it opens .mod files as well (like those saved from openmpt and milkytracker) and its clipboard is txt-based
@@nitrofurano_ Sounds impressive...txt clipboard sounds practical. BTW, listened to some of your tunes on battleofthebits. Very emotional and love your creativity! :D

Thanks for the comment, Mike. Hmm...all the signal processing I do removes and limits parts of the audio spectrum: noise gate, EQ (de-essing and other nasty frequencies), and a bit of compression. Only thing I might have tweaked is mic positioning and acoustic location, but I work with what I've got. :P What settings do you suggest?
@@MatthewIvic Yea I have a few suggestions, turn down the bass and turn up the mids, use less vocal fry, project voice with more energy. Those 3 things will make a huge difference.
finally found a video on how to get the samples to work! tho im still super confused on how to get good sounds from the algorythms, not to mention i cant seem to find a way to get the full set of notes either as it starts at C and nothing lower. regardless excellent straightfoward tutorial, im hoping the cheat sheet would help me have a better understanding of the functions for someone who has no musical knowledge.
Wow this wasn't what I was looking for per se but turned into something I'll be saving in a playlist fr, excellent in depth explanations on FM

Hmm...all the signal processing I do removes and limits parts of the audio spectrum: noise gate, EQ (de-essing and other nasty frequencies), and a bit of compression. Only thing I might have tweaked is mic positioning and acoustic location, but I work with what I've got. :P
What settings do you suggest?
@@MatthewIvic Yea I have a few suggestions, turn down the bass and turn up the mids, use less vocal fry, project voice with more energy. Those 3 things will make a huge difference.
I'll look into these. Vocal fry definitely messes with the lower end. Will be useful for my Death Metal Chiptune tutorial at least...
I'm too dumb for this...
...or my tutorial is crap. XD
You can do it!

Why are you talking so fast??
gotta go fast
I couldn't understand most of what you were saying because you were talking so fast lol. I had to slow the video down to 0.75x
why do you talk so fast? it's kind of jarring when trying to follow along
Thanks for the input. I am still working on a ideal pacing.
Who explains somthing complex like this with 4x speed dubbing voice over ??? useless
Gotta go fast ??? presto
This just looks like math..... and you talk so fast!
Yes!

finally found a video on how to get the samples to work! tho im still super confused on how to get good sounds from the algorythms, not to mention i cant seem to find a way to get the full set of notes either as it starts at C and nothing lower. regardless excellent straightfoward tutorial, im hoping the cheat sheet would help me have a better understanding of the functions for someone who has no musical knowledge.
I do hope the cheat sheet helps. Studying other pieces of music is a good place to start, too. Thanks for the comment.
