And for modifying master page using SharePoint designer, you need to open site in SPD and then from the left navigation select Master Page and you will be displayed all the masterpages in right panel. Right click your master page and then select "Edit in Advanced Mode".
Master page will get opened, modify your setting and the save, check-in and publish the master page.

In 2013 version: you can create master page in html and upload it into MasterPage gallery it will automatically generate corresponding .master file.
If there is any code is associated in your master page then you'll be required to create visual studio solution and then deploy that master page using feature.
Once master page is available in your MasterPage gallery then you can edit it using SharePoint designer.
You can also create your own master page in SharePoint Designer by making a copy of already existing master page and then modifying its html
or
if you want to create from the scratch or importing already created master page then be careful and insert all the ContentPlaceHolder that defined in default masterpage otherwise it'll throw error for that content place holder.
