I bought mine in 1999 (first real synth I ever got) for $200 and the price for them stayed pretty much the same until 2-3 uears ago. Since then it has roughly tripled, whch is still better than what happened to the DX-7 but it has definitely risen quite a bit recently.

I've purchased a total of 3 of these. When released around 1988 the dealer cost was $1,197 with a list price of $1,995. My 1st one I bought brand new in the box on closeout for ~$800 (I was working at a Yamaha dealer at the time… around 1990), my 2nd unit I bought (used) for ~$500… sold it some years later, and around 2010 my boss at the time asked me if I wanted to buy his TX-802 he wasn't using. I said I already had one and he said you can have it for TWENTY BUCKS… now I have (2) units again ;-)

A little known feature of the TX-802. "Poly-chain", getting multiple units of a synth model working together for increased polyphony wasn't common at the time of the TX-802, and the Oberheim Matrix 1000 was one of the early models having a poly-chain feature (although they didn't call it that you can link up to (6) M1000 units for potentially being able to play an analog synth patch with 36 notes of polyphony). The TX-802 has a parameter where you set the unit to respond to incoming MIDI messages for EVEN numbered MIDI notes, ODD MIDI note numbers, or ALL notes. If you have (2) TX-802 units, you can make sure both units have the same voice (patch) and performance data in memory, set 1 unit to receive EVEN note numbers, and the other unit to receive ODD note numbers, set both to receive on the same MIDI channel(s) and it will effectively perform like you have 32 note polyphony rather than 16. You need to run the audio outputs from both machines to a mixer of course and set the channels of the mixer up the same way.
@IncorrectDisposal2 жыл бұрын
Another little known feature: The G10 system comes in two component parts: the MIDI guitar (G10) and the rack-mount MIDI converter (G10C) yamahablackboxes.com/collection/yamaha-g10c-guitar-midi/ Because the G10 comes ready to play out of the box, virtually no setup is required. A complete set of patches for both the TX81Z and TX802 FM synthesizers is contained within the G10 MIDI converter. These sounds have been voiced especially for use with the G10 system, and reside in permanent memory (ROM) within the G10C. All you need is either a TX81Z or TX802 and a MIDI cable to download the FM sound data to the appropriate tone generator

Most sounds import without a problem and sound ridiculously close to the originals but there are exceptions, such as E.Bass1 and patches with a high feedback setting.

Both the DX11 / TX81Z and the TX802 have similar engines with those different wave forms. I'm happy at the moment though as I have the Plogue ChipSynth OPS7 - this emulates the Mk1 DX7 perfectly -- so I can layer multiple OPS7 and have similar to a TX816 (or better!).

after selling some gear in the past and deeply regrettin git. I don't think I could ever sell another piece. Unless it's far in the future and the value has gone way up and I'm in dire need of money. lol
