Tutorial: #08 - The Frequency Modulation

Frequency Modulation (FM) is a classic synthesis method developed a long time ago and it tends to produce complex rich spectra, unlike oscillators, which only produce harmonic sounds, unless modulated. There are essentially 2 methods for implementing FM in MSoundFactory.
