How To ‘Vibe Code’ Your Own Firmware For The M-Vave FM-1 Synthesizer
Synthesist Floyd Steinberg – in his latest video – looks at the alternate firmware revolution of the M-Vave FM-1 synthesizer.
The FM-1 and its software community have arguably made it the synth of 2026. You buy the FM-1 for well under $100 and run it with the powerful stock firmware, or use one of dozens of alternate firmware options that give the synth completely new capabilities.
In this video, though, Steinberg looks at going further and building your own firmware. Starting at around 16:39, Steinberg demonstrates how he approached it.
