This library was painstakingly compiled over 2 months worth of man-hours; converting OPM files into SYX files via a python script, importing them into FM8, and editing each sound by ear (using the originating VGM as a reference) adding effects like chorus delay and sculpting the synths to restore things like pitch modulation where removed.
YM2612 PATCH LIBRARY
A library of 400+ patches for the FM8 VST as heard on Loud Formations
A portion of the donation will go to the archivist who produced this repository of Sega Genesis OPM files, and to the author of this python script. Please feel free to share any music created using this library. I’m working with the label to create a free compilation of the best tracks. Tag your sounds #VRTUA on social media. I may even feature them in the gallery below.
