Hi,
Many of you may be familiar with one or more of my projects like DXconvert, The Reface DX Legacy Project (RDLP), or - from the early Atari ST days - YSEDITOR. These projects are still going. For example: Recently I released an update of DXconvert with greatly improved Korg DS8/707 data import.
In all these years one of the frequently asked questions was: Can I load patches from 4-operator FM synths like DX100, TX81Z, FB01, or V50 in my DX7 (or compatible) synthesizer? The short answer has been "No you can't". The longer answer "Yes you can, but the data need to be converted first using DXconvert".
Today I am proud to present my latest project, powered by DXconvert: "The 4OP to DX7 Conversion Project". It is the easiest answer to the above question. I have converted a huge number of SysEx patches and banks from numerous 4-operator (and some 2-operator) FM synths and they are now available and ready to use on my new website in the form of DX7 and DX7II compatible SysEx files. These SysEx data are accepted not only by DX7 and DX7II but by many other compatible FM synths, modules, and VST plugins.
Using additional software these files could even be converted to SY/TG77, SY99, and even Montage file format.

Enjoy!
