The New Yamaha DX7 Patches

[@orangedelta4598]

Downloaded the DX7 patches today. Absolutely fantastic work!!! So much more dynamics, the original harshness is gone and so much attention to detail in how the sounds develop. I play the sonds with the DX7 Mark 2 in dual mode and panning switched on. It feels like I've bought a new synthesizer. Compliments again for the great work.

[@offthematrix5310]

Thank you much for your detailed comments.

[@BlackDragonStudio]

This honestly shows how the DX7 was really never used to it's fullest potential, I really wish Yamaha would re-release the Yamaha DX7 and not as a reface, but as a MIDI 2.0 compliant DX7

Immediately purchased these! My god! I knew my DX7 (mk2, actually) was versatile, but this just blows everything I've heard out of the water!! Incredible!! I second and third everyone here who said they would love a book/video series from you demystifying FM synthesis and would certainly pay good money for it, too!

Really nice sounds! Shows what the DX7 was capable of (I still find it amazing that all this rich diversity of sounds was created through modulating purely sine waves!).

[@fender1000100]

Great work... FM is the greatest synthesis. I first got my hands on a DX7 in 1991. From the second I heard the tubular bells and timpani. I knew it was capable producing a universe of sounds. From that day ive been an FM fanatic....

I liked the bass and pad sounds best, good job! My former band mate bought a DX7 when it first came out and he still has it.

[@kehindea]

FM synthesis! I am so glad I had the Yamaha v50 instead of the Korg M1. At times i felt jealous of the Korg's realism but when I think of how I was able to program my own sounds and the amazing Electric Piano sound was brilliant on the V50. WIll definitely get these patches and load into Dexed. I might even try the other soft synth others mentioned as well

[@BlackenedNL]

I'm gonna buy this right away! :D

[@fredbrenno]

I actually used to hate DX7/FM-sounds in general in the 80s. Now I like the classic sounds and see the potential of it. Atcually got a MODX now. And I love it. Verry nice programming. Amazing result. Congrats !!

[@EdgyNumber1]

I'm a Korg man, myself having used the excellent OPsix and the featured MOD7 FM engine in my workstation. This was crazy impressive though, it sounds like you've really tried to push DX7 to its limits. Great sound!

One thing though. I think Bank 1-10 FX Guitar is a really good piano sound. But why is it named ”FX Guitar”?

[@lars1588]

FINALLY someone who knows how to program the DX7 and maximize its capabilities. The factory patches are so underwhelming. Excellent. I have a SuperMAX+ modchip which adds even more functionality to my DX7, and it's a astounding. I can make convincing "analog" pads by stacking and detuning voices. It also can do delay by retriggering voices. Those are only some of the features it adds.

Ese DX7 flotando en el espacio es una preciosidad.

[@lundsweden]

Did you ever have a go at a acoustic piano sound? I've heard some pretty convincing, and more importantly very expressive piano patches on KZbin.

[@offthematrix5310]

Yes, This past week I worked on a piano patch. It's real challenge to get a acoustic piano with FM. A video was made a few months ago on how to use FM for a stereo piano.

[@raulacevedo-esteves9493]

Really nice work. I bought the patches. You should consider writing a book on how to wrangle FM synthesis.

Seconded. A book on achieving these kinds of results with FM synthesis would be gold.

Really nice work- the patches have lots of nice motion in them. Will check them out!

[@paistinlasta1805]

It's hard to imagine that the DX7 absolutely broke the synthesizer scene with the hastily thrown together patches it came with. When it comes to factory patches, I think the DX7 really showed is claws when the DX7II came out in 1986, those patches are awesome. Although we tend to forget that the DX1 and DX5 were also around, with double the oscillators of the DX7, and boy do those sound amazing.

[@oscarvanderburgh9915]

I especially like the realistic sounds. Would have been even more ground breaking back then… before we had tons sample libraries of gb’s

[@jam6000]

[@brianbergmusic5288]

Congratulations on demonstrating a new generation of potential of this synthesis method (often perceived as tedious).

[@brianbergmusic5288]

I just had to drop by again to pick my jaw off the floor. The naysayers of the DX-7 may only be correct in tedium, but they are wrong about writing it off for sound design. The horn alone would be worth the price of admission if I owned a DX7.

Awesome sounds, frequency responce, texture, space...

[@lqr824]

As to the famous "FOUR DAYS" claim. I know one of the original programmers has claimed exactly that (I think in an interview in Keyboard Mag, and maybe somewhere else). I'm sure there was some high-profile phase of the project that was four days. But I suspect a huge amount of the work was done in earlier phases as well. This could include 1) using patches from previous generations of Yamaha FM instruments as starting points, 2) pre-developing patches either on such previous-gen hardware or more likely on test mules and pre-production synths, 3) the engineering team's "test crash dummy" patches that the hardware was literally designed around.

[@anttihuovilainen1653]

I recall an interview where they said the original GOAL was to make the patches in just 4 days, but they ended up spending some weeks in Japan to actually create all of them.

[@lqr824]

@@anttihuovilainen1653 Oh hey, I recognize your name! The Finnish synth software mafia! 😀 Anyway I was a synth fan in the latter 1980s and started studying Japanese so I could potentially join Korg Roland or Yamaha. I ended up working in Japan starting Jan 1992, but in a Unix computer company (Omron/Data General). My experience in tech business in Japan in 1991 might not reflect highly on Japan tech business in 1982/1983. That was a LOOONG decade of progress for Japan and technology. But, in my experience, there's no way a company like Yamaha would bet the company on a four day business trip. A synth is only as good as its presets. (At least the DX7 was, with its FM/PM synthesis.) The funny thing was that after a few years in Japan, I moved to Switzerland and learned good German as well as Japanese and made my own very powerful synth software. Then when Korg opened a development group in Berlin I applied but they didn't even care to respond personally. Oh well, I'm sure they found better people than someone who spoke German and Japanese and changed their entire life around trying to join a Japanese synth company. Oh well! What are you doing, are you in academia now or in industy?

[@brickblock369]

Wow. The horn and the oboe blew me away. I assume key scale level was used to change tones on the fly, but I don't know what else was used. There's reverb in the demonstrations though? DX7 by itself doesn't have reverb, so I assume you used external reverb?

[@Miicrowahvei]

I recommend using Ops7 as a DX7 synth because of its outstandingly detailed sound generation, and you can stack/layer patches with it, like a Dx7 II. Ops7 truly is THE most authentic sounding among the others like Dexed, Arturia Dx7 V, Fm8..

[@iixorb]

100% agree. I have all the main DX VST’s and OPS7 is the clear winner. I’ve also owned various DX7’s since the late 80’s

[@jairkerker2821]

That Rhodes is strangely convincing. A little taken aback by comparing the Rhodes with the famous DX7 electric piano, I love them both but for very different reasons (the DX7 one made me close my eyes). Great, great inspiring patches. Those slowly developing ones are impressive, they really convey emotion (props to the player too) and there's much in those icey/metal high areas to accentuate with equalized reverbs - or not. Are they all fit for the old brown one in regard to finer tuning capabilities featured on the later models?

[@offthematrix5310]

Most of the patches were actually created on a TX802.

Would you make a video on how to programm a Orchestra hit or a seagull sound on the dx7 if you know what I mean? And if I buy your patches could you send me them as a list of parameters so I can Programm them in myself to learn?

[@offthematrix5310]

I haven't programmed those sounds but I'm up to the challenge. Yes, the engineer who is helping me made a program to print DX7 settings. Do you want all 4 banks?

[@transzendenz9142]

@offthematrix5310 I need to listen to them again but I think I'm Goin for only two banks for the start. For reference the hit sound I'm searching is the one in "don't stop the rock" from "freestyle". If you would make this patch this would be so cool. And please make a video about it and what your thoughts are to get to the sound.

[@transzendenz9142]

Also I need to buy a Ram cartridge first. Because the one I got says read protect and I can't write either. I already tried buying one on ebay but that one had the same issue. I don't know if it's my dx7 or if it was just a coincidence. I once read somewhere that the DX7 MK2 has the option to put a password on Ram Catridges and that I therefore can't use them unless I got the password. I would also love to see a realistic church organ on the DX7.

[@offthematrix5310]

The patches were programed on a TX802 which has a larger screen.

[@mrdali67]

You kinda have a part of what was the poibilities in th 80's with FM in the Synclavier, problem was the computer's was not fast enough in the 80's to make real physical modelling. The other idea was to use several FM Synths, Have a computer analyze eg. a Piano sound and split the different part of the sounds into something the 6 operator FM generator can do and combine it into the TX816. That way the Synth itself didn't need a Super Computer to produce the sound on the fly. It was kinda the birth of one of the possible ways of doing Physical modelling

No these patches won't. But there's 4 operator versions of most of the patches at the site. Some of the patches actually sound better on the DX11. I made a view of the different FM synths with demos of the sounds.

[@jimpenningtonart]

@@offthematrix5310 thanks! Checking out the site now!

[@stephenc3060]

Okay, I (pretty much always) have to go against the crowd on this one. I couldn't agree with more with the observations that these patches demonstrate next-level skill, artistry, and painstaking attention to detail -- that feels to me at least, IDK, underutilized maybe? I'm an old guitarist and FX/amp tech and I'll argue up and down that a well designed electric guitar rig is the most broadly expressive instrument ever. (Spend an afternoon listening to the Edge's right hand). Before the DX, a technician could program a sequencer, and train a roadie to replace them live. But here's a true performance instrument, one that needs a skilled musician to get the real-time nuance of a live performance with other musicians. I guess what I'm trying to say is that in the last 20 years, the keyboards have gone off the charts with realism. I've seen pianos with 12 samples per key that calculate the harmonics of other keys interacting. Unreal how real they sound. Sadly, the DX will never get close. Why try? The best pure musicians push their instrument to get it to do things no other instrument, or instrumentalist can. With rare exceptions (Tom Morello emulating DJ scratching), it's not by working to make it sound like something that already exists. Sorry. Again, you've really done something amazing and I'm not trying to dismiss your work. Just an old man shaking his fist at the clouds.

[@offthematrix5310]

Very often I'm not happy with samples of instruments. Because often they sound thin and they don't respond in timbre to velocity and BC. So FM still has some advantages over sampling. I just made a video about layer FM with piano samples that explains more. Actually, I'm working on a sample library too.

[@acousvnt]

Hi, I just bought the set and like it very much; even if I only use ten of the patches it's less than a dollar a patch, so it's well worth it. One question, though, the oboe in this video doesn't appear to be included...?

[@acousvnt]

I also see there's a "chorale" patch in another video of yours that doesn't appear in the two sysex banks I downloaded.

[@acousvnt]

Overall quality is great, though, and you could easily charge more. Just wanted to alert you to these minor discrepancies.

[@peterwilson69]

If I was a software developer for Yamaha, I’d allow users to record a sound, then perform an FFT analysis and set the FM engine accordingly. Ie. Replicate any other synth, not with samples, but the actual operators/envelopes etc. hard job, but that’s the beauty of computers! Instead they give us “smart morph” - urgh! Nice improvements! I’m an amateur FM sound designer myself.

[@offthematrix5310]

I thought of the possibility of doing that but it would be extremely difficult to develop software that could accurately analyze a complex sound to reproduce in FM. It would likely need many more operators than the 6 of the DX7.

[@serhiymarchenko8361]

This task should be doable for a waveform snapshot (single cycle), but become very complicated if you want to recreate spectrum changes over time. Probably the idea would be to make a few of those snapshots (attack, decay, sustain etc.) and software could analyze and find possible matches between them to recreate timbral changes (operator EGs). For FS1R there is software that analyzes .wav file and generates FSEQ (formant sequence), but that is a bit different compared to multi-operator FM sound generation.

[@changer1285]

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

At this point, my main reason for purchasing a DX7 would be if I thought I would discipline myself to generate patches like these on my own. As much as I still enjoy the sound of the classic 32 presets, I wouldn’t want this model only to play those sounds.

FM8 VSTi is a joke compared with DX7 hardware synth. FM8 sounds flat, thin, and imported DX7 sounds are not very close to the original. Nevertheless, NI has stop development of FM8. Best DX emulation in these days: the new Halion 7 ! Thanks to Yamaha+Steinberg ❤

[@EvilDragon666]

No, best DX7 emulation is Plogue's OPS7. Better than Dexed, (still has issues with envelopes and certain algorithms), better than Arturia's (takes too much CPU), better than HALion7 (which is close but not as close as OPS7, it's closer to the clean sound of FS1R without formant stuff than DX7, and yes that's with all three "emulation modes" tried out).

In short, 1) it is a well-known claim from an interview, but 2) I'd guess that quite a bit of work was done outside the "four day" window. I'm sure there was some stage of the project that was four days, and am not saying anyone's lying, but I'm guessing there was a LOT of prep done in earlier stages.

Awesome sounds. Were these tried on the opsix? Would be so nice to see how they were made.. So little in depth FM material on youtube.

[@hermask815]

Isn’t the Volca FM more compatible to the DX7 than the Opsix? As for the Opsix.. the patches have to be DX7 version 1. I’m no expert but I think some DX7 compound waveforms can be substituted by using the waveforms in Opsix directly (saw, square) thus simplifying the Algorithms. (From the Opsix manual: Note that as the opsix and DX7 use different parameter configurations, the conversion will not be perfect, and some sounds might end up quite different from the way they sounded on the DX7.)

[@offthematrix5310]

I was able to load the sysex files to a Korg Kronos as sysex files but it wasn't tested with the opsix.

[@tehedx]

The best thing to do is to use Dexed and see how they were built, then remake these on the Opsix. The parameters react much more intense on the Opsix. Operator volume has to be about the half, the feedback setting as well. It will still sound different, but with some tweaking here and there you can get pretty close. And if it's not close enough, just add some fx and unison sugar ;)

[@thomasfsan]

@@tehedx Ok thank you!

[@Roboprogs]

I don’t think the OpSix is DX7 compatible. But yeah, Volca and Kronos/Nautilus can be. There is a “jumper” that Nautilus connects, that you have to clear, when you load a DX7 sysex patch, though. Their algorithm patch panel (screen / submenu) has a filter block which “shorts across” several operators unless you remove the little patch cord to it.

Undeniably excellent. However to program 20 new patches on a 106 would take about 20 minutes.

Incredible work. It’s interesting now though that the DX (to me) is simply a collection of presets that evoke an era, and not something I expect to sound new or different. But I’ll buy it nonetheless. Look forward to hearing other patch collections. Maybe D50 next?

[@X22GJP]

Same - nothing there leapt out and inspired me, but instead is just the sound of an era - much like the D50 you mention and things like the M1. You could say the same about the analogue sound as well - each has its place in history and each comes and goes. Right now, for me, the sweet spot is the Korg Minilogue XD with its 3rd digital oscillator. That thing can sound old and new, FM-like or analogue, quite incredible for its price.

[@popcycles]

fm technology is all around, it never left. the presets on the dx7 while true they were used heavily out of the box on many songs in the 80s, the fm technology went on through the 90s, 2000s, etc through other genres of music....and continues to.
