The 4OP to DX7 Conversion Project
KW
for synthaction keybed V50 has one of the best i've played. and i've tried many synths to my knowledge V50 and B500 is the only 4op FM with 16 voices, quite unique! TQ5 ? no i think that was 8 voice right?

Yeah, that would've been killer, especially since the V50 keybed is nothing to write home about. Ah well... On 6/15/21, Nicole Massey <nyyki@...> wrote:

im not sure if we spoke about this here
before martin , but couldn't the waveforms be transcribed if broken down ? mathematically waveforms are just additive or subtractive so on the remaining free 2 ops we could combine any to create wave shape ? I know , not much more than a dream of an ideal right now but has anybody ever tried using a square and a sine to make triangular waveform on the dx? read about useage of combining waveforms in my cz or fz or vz manual Charles |
Yes, TQ5/YS200/YS100 are 8 voice polyphonic.

Kodamo EssenceFM is also interesting, but 6OP.

Plus 8 noise operators.

开云体育I always thought that Yamaha were on a tight budget in the mid 80s.? They had the FM synthesis licencing sewn up.?? The early FM machines like the GS1 and the DX1 you can tell that Yamaha spent money on the look, feel, and the electronic components.? You know.. decent power supplies and decent output stages and decent FM chips. I still have a beaten up old DX9 and I swear to you that it has a better sounding engine than say a DX27 that was 2 years newer. I have had two DX21 and there is a horrible aliasing that happens when you push the FM index too high.. it tends to repeat higher notes where it cannot cope with the computations.? The low end sounds are not as organic and deep as the DX9.? Although the DX21 does have 2 engines for dual detuned or just dual additive 4 note polyphony.? The DX9 is 16 note polyphonic.

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. Am 15.06.2021 um 22:25 schrieb Martin Tarenskeen:
