Re: Brian Eno patches.
Nathan I Smutz
There are four of Brian Eno's favorite patches on the patch sheet section
of Keyboard magazine February 1987. Kalimba 2,Tamboura,Glide, Violin 3. I don't have a scanner set up or I'd scan it and send it. Check your local libraries. Don't forget the library of a local university or college. The local university here has a collection of Keyboard from the present to back in the '80s. -Nathan ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Inside DX7
Hello I'm new to this list. But not to the DX series.
However there is one thing I'd like to ask. I recently did my annual check up of my rig, and whils cleaning the DX inside I found 4 potentiometers which I hadn't seen before. One adjusted the display. One seemed to "Tweak" the oscillators making them more crisp. One I have no idea what it did. And the fourth seemed to adjust the battery level. At it's lowest the battery level read 1.8 V and at it's highest it read 3.2 V This to me is very wierd. Has anyone seen this? What does it really do. And the Third, what does that do? Well, The Dx Rules. Oh, by the way It's an Original DX7 I own. (among others)... |

Re: FM Heaven?
Summa
Hi,
I tried FMHeaven, I find it doesn't sound completely like a real DX7 yet, even so you can import DX7 Sysex files, but comes close and don't need much processing power. Also fine is the matrix to create own algorithms, that way even feedback for every operator is possible. What's missing so far is the pitch envelope and rate scaling. I emailed the programmer (provided him with tx81z waveforms) a new expanded version is already planed... Part of his mail... --------------- The current features in the new (1.2) release of FMHeaven include: Rate Scaling control as on the DX7 - this allows the attacks of string sounds to be programmed much more easily. Oscillator sync control - now allows sync to be turned off. Unison mode - user selectable number of voices per note, plus control over the degree of detuning of the voices and stereo placement. Additional controller support such as overall modulation control - this can be used like the cutoff frequency controller to 'brighten' a sound by generating more high frequency harmonics. Can be quite effective. Planned features (maybe in 1.2): Additional oscillator waveforms - I had a play with additional waveforms with existing patches and got some great digital noises. Lots of distortion, but with an excellent in your face sound breaking through. I am trying to work out what would be sensible waveforms to include, hence the interest in the Tx81z waveforms. I am planning on including sine, sine + odd harmonics, sine + even harmonics settings with a couple of soft and maybe an extreme example of each. So this is square and saw type patterns. --------- At 03:45 07.03.01 -0000, you wrote: I have an older version of that prog.. it is called CES synth (i can'tremember the number I thinks it's 7), it sounds pretty good.. i much prefer the real thing if i can get it..

Re: Digest Number 68(Soundlib)(DX7II editors)
Nathan I Smutz
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThe only DX7II editors that I know, cost money.? Unisyn is
the?editor that I have.? People say good things about Soundiver.?
I think that Midiquest probably edits the DX7II too.? Software that was
written for the original DX7 may?communicate?correctly with the
DX7II.? I think?I heard that?Yamaha engineered the DX7II to send
two packets of data.? One packet is compatible with the original
DX7.??The other packet contains the extra data for the DX7II.?
This would explain how Soundlib sends DX7?data and ignores the?extra
DX7II parameters.? I hope you find an editor that works.?

DX7II as a controller for modules (PB, MW, CS1, CS2)
Nathan I Smutz
Hi,
If the keyboard is having no effect on your module, you may not have them set to the same MIDI chanel. Hit the EDIT button then press button number 32 (MIDI 1) press it again and again until you see "Channel messages" in the right hand side of your screen. Now you can change the Transmit channel "Trns ch". As for CS1 and CS2: While you are in EDIT mode press number 32 (MIDI 1 again) until you see "Controll number" in the right hand side of your screen. Now you can use the left arrrow key to highlight "CS >1" or CS 2" to set their controller numbers. Movement of the sliders will sendthese controll signals. If these controll signals are sent to the DX they will afffect the parameters that CS1 or CS2 are set to affect. There is a problem with using the DX for a controller. Velosity and perhaps other parameters only send values up to 99. The normal MIDI range goes up to 127. If you have a sequencer or another program that allows you to see the MIDI messages that you are sending, you may want to check whether the DX sends the full rannge of Mod wheel and pitch bender messages. It may be a good idea to check the sliders too. I hope you are able to get your setup to work. Make a joyful noise, Nathan ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!

Re: DX7II as a controller for modules (PB, MW, CS1, CS2)
Arnaud Garnier
Hi !
I'm not very good at programming but I can assure you that the two sliders CS1 and CS2 on the DX7 II can be assigned to various midi controls. I controled with them some filters on my MU90R, so I'm sure it works. Unfortunately, I can't help you about reassigning them. Greetings, Arnaud. |
DX7II as a controller for modules (PB, MW, CS1, CS2)
mango
Does anyone use the DX7II (i have a DX7IID) as a controller to control
other synth-modules ? How do you set it up to send out PitchBend and ModulationWheel messages to the synth-module ? I have a Nord Rack 2, and it is set to receive PB and MW messages, but appearently the DX7II isn't, because it isn't working :) The DX7's PB and MW work on it's own sounds by the way, so it doesn't seem broken any way. p.s. the sliders called "CS1" and "CS2" can be used to send out selectable CC-numbers, or not ? Thanks ! |
Looking for the 'Ian Boddy' voices for DX7
Richard
Many years ago, when the DX7 was king, Ian Boddy programmed some superb
voices that were available direct from him, or via Sound on Sound magazine in the UK. Does anyone have a copy of these voices. I have checked with Ian Boddy himself, and he doesn't have a copy. -- Richard |
