M-VAVE has showcased the FM-1 at the Guangzhou International Musical Instrument Fair 2026, a pocket FM synthesizer.
FM-1 is a true frequency-modulation synthesizer in your pocket. Six independent sine-wave operators combine through 32 algorithms to recreate the iconic timbres of the FM era — pianos, strings, brass, basses and electronic synths. It comes loaded with 128 factory tones and a color TFT screen that draws the live algorithm structure and oscillator waveform. A 27-key silicone piano-layout keyboard with OCT-/OCT+ over 8 octaves, MONO/POLY voicing (up to 12-voice polyphony), six built-in effects (Filter / Reverb / Delay / Distortion / Chorus / Phaser), a 7-mode arpeggiator and 16-step sequencer turn it into a complete creation rig. Triple MIDI — USB Type-C, Bluetooth BLE MIDI and 3.5mm MIDI IN — work simultaneously, a 2000mAh battery delivers ~12 hours, and a built-in speaker lets you play and listen anywhere.
