I've heard of a VSTinstrument called FM Heaven which is supposed to
be an emulation of the DX7 + friends. Has anyone had a chance to
play with this to stack its sound up against the real thing? I know
that emulations are never perfect but any specific quirks or missing
features?
I don't have it, but it's supposed to be pretty good. One I have
used is on Virtual Sampler, which has it's own DX emulation. That
one is nearly spot on - there is a Feedback issue; turn it down if
it's too much, the it's fine. I use this for previewing patches
before I spent half an hour programming them in (no MIDI!)
If you get FM Heaven, let us know how it is.
Ta,
