QBA23. - FM Music in QBasic? Sure, why the Hell not??

#QBasic #Programming #Tutorials Hey there, fellow Wack-A-Doo's! Well, y'all have heard the digital audio hijinx that a Sound Blaster compatible sound card can get up to now, but did ya happen to know that they can also generate countless instrument sounds & even percussion from scratch?
Well, they can, and this process is called "FM synthesis". In an nutshell, "FM" stands for "Frequency Modulation", and essentially, for each voice you have two "operators". Each of these operators is an independent tone source, and in FM, one operator or "Frequency", modifies or "Modulates" the other, giving you an endless range of sounds and textures to choose from!
Anyway, in this here video, we'll just scratch the surface of what FM synthesis can do & give ya'll a starting point for experimenting with your own bizarre and wonderful sounds, even your very own music right from the soundcard!
How Groovy is THAT?????
