I had a dx7II, and I loved it. I liked the Keyboard. Some people say, the dx7 Sounds diffrent, more dirt.
Yes, I have the DAS FM bundle. It's not even close and eats up all my DSPanabella wrote:I bought the DigitalAudioSoft fm bundle for scope, but this is Not a dx7,it is different and Sound really wonderful,, but can Not replace a dx7. I guess i miss the hum and hiss
No, it's not dead. I sold it in mint condition for about 1000$ over 10 years ago. I am not missing it. The keyboard on it was probably worse than one on my high school casio keyboard. No modulation wheel, just a button. Pitch bend stick was fun. It need about 10 minutes to warm up before you could press the 'tune' button then it would stay in tune. It was extremely easy to program. Some unique features like turning on more than one waveform on at the same time. The filter was out of this world. Really crazy sounds, but it could also sound nice and gentle on pads.anabella wrote:You have a Jupiter 6!WOW
but its Dead, urgh, Beileid
I tried the ni fm7 a joke! This sucks and fm8 also fucked sound
I caught the zarg bundle, its awesome.
Im lucky to invite the fm bundle for all you can eat dsp breakfast, because I have loaded 45 in my pc
But 1997 I started with 6 dsp pulsar

It has real buttons/switches and a larger display.tlaskows wrote: ... and probably not have those stupid membrane switches.
I needed it when performing live.tlaskows wrote: There's also an FD version with a floppy drive, but you don't need that.
You can use "Dexed" VSTi as a DX7 sysex editor for all 6-OP models and grab most patches ever available here ...tlaskows wrote: FM Alive is $20 and has almost 20,000 patches. Sysex works just fine.
Don´t ignore the rackmounts.tlaskows wrote: And of course the TX802 with separate output for each voice.
I posted Dexed because it´s free and because of all the patches you can grab from that site.tlaskows wrote:I tried out Dexed, less than 1% of the patches sounded almost the same. The rest was far off, nothing like when I loaded the patch on my DX7s. Yes, it has some edit features, but it's missing a lot of them. FM Alive has a free trial. Download it and see what I mean. It's a way better editor (so I think). It lets you pick which version of the DX7 you have so it shows you the appropriate options. I am saving up 20$ to pay for it grrrrrr

It seems, emulating Yamaha FM is DSP hungry always.tlaskows wrote: Yes, I have the DAS FM bundle. It's not even close and eats up all my DSP

Do you want to buy it so I can get an Xite-2? Just joking, it's not for sale for a quite a long time.anabella wrote:Ohhhhje tom i remember, you are the gut who wanted to sell your 45 dsp Set.
Never Do this again.
Casio just used a different name. They basically are implemented the same way, a lookup table. The only reason for them sounding different would be if the lookup table is a bit different and if the algos are a bit different.Bud Weiser wrote:It seems, emulating Yamaha FM is DSP hungry always.tlaskows wrote: Yes, I have the DAS FM bundle.

It still is in my Kurzweil PC3 series synth too.
It´s cool we got CZ Oscs in Modular 4, just because Casio PD in fact is almost the same than Yammy FM.
Sounds weird but is true.
But also w/ Modular, there´s not much polyphony, so no replacement for any hardware FM/PD synth when you are a keyboard player.
