More impressively, for me anyway, it has an audio recording function that lets you export recordings as WAV files. King of FM features some built-in FX, including Phaser, Reverb, Chorus, Ping-Pong Delay, Stereo Fatten, and Crush. Taking the best and most popular sounds from that collection, the developer launched the app with over 200 presets and more than 10,000 individual samples (over 2 GB of sounds compressed to less than 400 MB).

You can run King of FM as a standalone app on Apple Silicon Macs, and a workaround allows it to run as an AUv3 plugin in Logic/GarageBand, although the developer does not support that.Īudiokit built this app from a massive collection of multi-sampled recordings of presets from these classic 80s synths. King of FM functions as a standalone iPhone/iPad app or an iOS plugin inside host DAWs like GarageBand, Beatmaker 3, etc. Audiokit’s King of FM app brings you the sound of all four Yamaha classics, so you don’t have to choose between them. While the original DX7 remains the most popular and discussed synth of the bunch, some people prefer the sound or workflow of the others and sometimes debate the true king of FM. It’s fair to put the DX7 top of the list because it was Yamaha’s original FM superstar, but as the 1980s rolled on, Yamaha released more FM synths like the DX7II, TX81z (rackmount), and the SY77.

When we think of the classic 80s FM synth sounds used on countless hit records, we probably think of the Yamaha DX7 more than any other synth.
