Brilliant! Thanks

interesting technique. I still use dexed for fm as I am use to it.

Yeah, if it works, it works! 😀I've got an original DX7, the programming is a pain, but I love the sound.

I am trying to recreate Dexter with only default modules, since Dexter does not support polyphony. Can you do a breakdown of how that synth works? I've built a serial FM synth, but it does not sound like algorithm 1 on Dexter.

That sounds like an interesting module, will check it out!
