Yamaha TX816 Service Manual in HD


 

Good news everyone ! </farnsworth>

I've posted this into a different group but thought it could be useful to let all of you know about it since some of you might also got a TX along with your DX7 !

Many years ago, as I started my journey into this FM synths deep rabbit hole, I've been welcomed by friendly people from next to my home to the other side of the ocean and I got many helpful answers to my many questions.
Time passes and now it's time for me to give back to all of you and especially to Daniel Forró whom gave me precious tips and documentation to fix my TX816 back in the days.

Without further ado I have the honour of releasing a better quality (600x600dpi) scan of the TX816 service manual in full including it's oversize schematics ! I bought it on the web few months ago along some other rare Yamaha documents (that I intend to scan also) and it took me few hours of scanning and stitching (and few minutes of swearing also). I hope that it'll help anyone who have to fix or enhance this mighty Yamaha workhorse !

You'll find the link here: (as the schematics are 40MiB and the manual 125MiB I couldn't upload them here, feel free to copy/host them elsewhere)

This put an end to a quest I started 3 years ago to get a better quality PDF of this manual in order to facilitate my repairs on my TX, I'm happy that it ended.

I don't ask for any payback of course this is all free for you get !

<shameless plug>
I just want to add that to this day I've got a near complete TX516 with 3 missing modules to complete my TX816 so if you got working or defective TF1 units that you'll be ready to spare I'll be happy to talk with you about them ! I fix electronic consoles and music gear so dead units won't be a to much of a problem.
</shameless plug>

Anyway have a nice day and keep the spirit of the FM alive ! Long live Yamaha FM !
