Long, thorough, and in-depth tutorial on all things regarding FM and audio rate modulation on the fantastic Sequential prophet-6. If you're serious about diving deep into sound design on this instrument and getting the most out of it (or a similar instrument like the prophet-5 or OB-6), I highly recommend watching the whole thing. Enjoy!
