This DX7 analog patch emulates the synth string sound very nicely, as it is rich in higher harmonics and highly modulated.Moderators: DerekparametricSaul. Yamaha SY77 is a 16 voice multitimbral music workstation first produced by Yamaha Corporation in I like to use presets as a basis or 'template' for creating new sounds. Thus I've been checking to see what's out there. I noticed on Ebay a couple of people selling patch CDs. I'm curious if anyone has any knowledge of these and whether it's worth the asking price. Here is one in particular I have my eye on, but I'm not sure.

Thank you!! Your paying for what essentially is already out there and free but just compiled onto one disc for you. I'm just wondering how long it would take you to go through 80, patches and I have about patches on my Fantom G and I haven't even scratched the surface yet! #DX7 PATCHES CONVERTED TO FM8 FREE# I have loads of patch discs here for various synths and a ton of sample cd's but I rarely use any of them. Then again, some people never get into editing patches or at least not in depth editing and are content to buy patch banks having sounds close to what they want.ĭifferent strokes for different folks. I think Saul's comment hit home a bit and caused me to pause and think a bit about my goals. I don't think I've seriously exhausted all of the patches I currently have collected thus far, so I think I'll take a seat and work with what I have. I suppose what I was concerned about in the beginning was making sure I could acquire patches should they be taken off the market and become difficult to find. That would require I know what I'm looking for though I'm reminded of the days back when the Yamaha DX7 first came out in the 80's. My parents helped me to buy the DX7 when it was first released and I remember later buying a really thick book of 'how to' program certain types of instruments on the DX7. I remember that book fondly and it helped me to create lots of patches.
