Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
Good idea :-)
At the Yamaha forums the runner of "Sector101" is known as member 'shadowmask' - as you can see he uses such kind of rotary switch too - as well as with his Waveblade card... which is

Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
I would like a bare PCB so I can build one out of parts I already have, but alas I have a DX7S which is also not the exact same cartridge slot as the mark I.

Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
Maybe this is not problem IMHO, as such card with 4096 or 8192 patches and limited possibility to reprogram (becauser most of potential users have no access to and not enough knowledge about EPROM

Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
Well done, Christophe. I have many ideas like that one, but they rarely end up actually getting built :)
I agree with Antoine - DIP switches aren't ideal, not only for ergonomics but because they

Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
Félicitations Christophe!
Cool stuff.
I have a DX7-II so I won't order one (DX7 to DX7-II cartridge adapters are very rare and insanely expensive).
One suggestion, it would greatly improve usability

Re: DX7 ROM Card with 256 x 32 patches
Thank you for posting this. As Daniel has mentioned there is perhaps a large amount of pent up demand for something like this. Is there no issue with using the PCB traces as contacts? I know this has

Finally! That’s great! I was waiting for something like this 31 years :-) Merci beaucoup.

I love Scarlatti, have performed many of his sonatas and know everything about his music.
