Jane - from your photo, you look like a Jane West I knew w a y back in the 70s - Did your parents live at "The Rectory?" Whitstone, near Exeter, Devon (UK)? Back then, you lived in Gloucester Road, above a Barclays Bank in London and you were PA to a group of local Directors??? You were a Freddie Mercury/Queen Fan too?

Crazy that a Raspberry Pi can run 8 DX7s without breaking a sweat. I mean, if multi outputs were important to you you could still use 4 or 8 smaller raspberry pis and not break the bank.

When one DX7 that is something that mostly nobody knows how or bothers to learn how to program, then clearly the answer to help everyone out is to put 8 of them together in a box! 😂 Only Yamaha would do this😃. But aren't we all glad they did... Qudos to them.

@Shred_The_Weapon Жыл бұрын

I have long harbored a weird fantasy. I’ve imagined pairing the 816 with an SY-22 or -35, calling up a tone with 32-note polyphony and 4-part multitimbral functionality and being able to switch between the 4 tones by using the vector controller. I’ve been informed something like that isn’t doable, but it still makes for a fun fantasy.

@rickmay1188 Жыл бұрын

It should be doable via crossfade mixing, using a touchpad controller, or a Korg kaosilator. Basically all the vector controller is doing is raising and lowering the overall level of each patch, which should be assignable to any good joystick. It may also control things like envelope, mod, etc, but if you get something that can crap out midi control, you can assign it to do the thing. I recently fell into the rabbit hole that is iPad music creation, and found several midi mapping programs that could do it. MIDI Designer Pro comes to mind. It lets you add virtual sliders, knobbers, Touch controls, x/y axis pads, buttons, etc. Just drag and drop, then tell it which CC you want it to control, on what channel, or give it a line of sysex, and you're golden. I got it specifically so I could use my iPad as a programmer for an M-audio Venom.

I was at a studio in the early 80s and at the top of a keyboard rig they had a QX1. Spotlighted. It was like a holy object. Like a Bible handwritten by God laying in an arc of the covenant. I didn't dare touch it. I looked at it up, down, underneath, side to side, every angle. That was the first, last and only time I ever saw one in person. I would love to tell you I'm exaggerating with this story but I am not.

These are really cool. I sadly never got to see the 80s, but I watched this movie Runaway '84 and read about how they put together the soundtrack. That led to a QX1, TX-816, DX5, and 2 REV-1s. The QX1 had a dead floppy drive that required lithium grease and a new belt. The DX5 had broken felt, dirty contacts, and a bad display. The REV-1s had dead LCD backlights. As cool and minimalist as the QX1 is, I'm very glad it evolved into the QY-700....I use that for my everything. I love these uploads. The newest Yamaha I have is the FS1R lol.

I recently got a free KX88, and it's stupidest keyboard ever made. I love it but Yamaha was snorting epic coke in 1984 to make an 88 key, 63lb, aftertouch+velocity keyboard that's over five feet long, and is literally just a MIDI controller, and THEN only gave it one MIDI in and one MIDI out, and no thru lol

On many midi devices from the early days the thru added lots of latency for me. Better using a separate thru box then :)

@CentralScruteniser 2 жыл бұрын

For Purists, I would say that Physical Modelling is really the way to go - but the fact is that the DXes were ground breaking at the time - no one had heard sounds like them before, and given all those OPs AND multiply by 8 - then there is STILL stuff in them that has never been heard. The DX just keeps on giving - provided you have the skill and patience 😊
