(as this discution is highly OT, i just got further : how many people in this list have listen to ANALOG FM synthesis. i never succed doing so great sound with pd or any other digital stuff.)
I did, a while ago, using a sine carrier and modulator on a analog synth. It's was funny but rather limited, because analog oscillators are not stable enough, and because FM requires a lot of oscillators to sound rich enough; that's a reason why this technique evolved in the digital domain. I would love to hear good music using analog FM, do you have an example?
I heard Riverrun from Barry Truax around 1988, and I still like this early combination of (digital) FM synth with granular synthesis: http://www.sfu.ca/~truax/gran.html -- Marc
