I would suggest looking also at Dexed (http://asb2m10.github.io/dexed/). It's interface is much nicer than hexter's, IMHO. As with all sound programming, literature an dtheory can only take you so far. The implementation details of FM also have a huge inpact on the sonic character and possibilities. If you want to delve into DX7-sytle 6-OP FM, you just have to explore the possibilities (and limitations) of the 32 available algorithms. This is IMHO best done by a mixture of trying to achieve certzain sounds and by much experimentation absed on that. If you understand German, this article on AMAZONA is also very enlightening: https://www.amazona.de/workshop-echte-wahre-und-richtige-frequenzmodulation-lineare-logarithmische-und-phasen-fm/ AMAZONA has a few other interesting workshops on different types of synthesis, you can search for the in the "Archiv". Lastly, there are a few good video tutorials on FM synthesis on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=fm+synthesis&search=Search Some of them are based on the proprietary NI FM8 synth, but the principles explained there can be applied to many other FM synths.
