Re: Assistance needed
I had a similar problem with mine. The memory would get corrupted when switched off, even with a fresh battery.
In the end I found the fault was ZD1 (a 6.2V Zener diode) on the power supply board.

Re: Assistance needed
There are several elements to the battery that need to be correct. Obviously the battery itself must be good and properly connected, then there is the germanium diode which you can test with most

Hi David,
I'm not a DX7 owner (TX802 here), but here are some general comments:

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
Maybe because it's a testttone, only a sinewave?
If you look at it in a wave editor you will see a type of irregularity that you will not see with a tremolo effect.

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
That's interesting, I wouldn't describe that as a chorus at all, to my ears that's actually tremelo.

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
This is a different instrument. I can't find Service manual or schematics for DX27S.

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
I was wondering myself, but I hadn't used the DX21 for a while, so didn't give it another thought. Just wondered why you wanted that sound - for good measure I threw in the other sound

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
Hi Florian,
Seems something is wrong with your INIT VOICE? The standard INIT VOICE should be only one operator without modulation. Don't know if it's like that on your DX27S, but it was like that

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
I overlooked your question about the hardware, sorry.
DX21 uses a Panasonic MN 3209 as a chorus (256 stages), the DX27s? a MN 3204 (512 stages).
I had done a quick comparison in the past, I

Re: DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
I could compare schematics if only DX27S Service manual or schematics is available. Unfortunately it isn’t.

DX21 and DX27S chorus effect
Hi,
The DX21 and DX27s have a very basic Stereo Chorus effect with only one parameter: On/Off. I am looking for someone owning one of these keyboards, who can record a simple single note testtone -

Re: The 4OP to DX7 Conversion Project
That?s? why? I hope for a 1HU MODX rack since Yammi came ut w/ the
keyboard versions.
Unfortunately, these keyboard actions aren?t the holy grail too.
