The target of this engine is to be closest to the real DX7. Mark I: Based on the OPL Series but at a higher resolution (LUT are 10-bits).Modern: this is the original 24-bit music-synthesizer-for-android implementation.Since all of this is experimental, multiple engines will be available to be able to compare them easily. This does not only apply to the DAC, it also involves the bit resolution of the sine waves and the way that the amplitude is applied to each operator. Selecting a cartridge loads the patches in the relative bank.ĭexed can be configured to use some of the original math limitation of a DX synthesizer. Patch banks are called "cartridges" and there are many (about 32) included in the installation package. The operators can be arranged in various algorithms, indicated by the green boxes.

It is an ideal application for importing, playing and editing/managing sysex patches from both the classic Yamaha DX7 synthesizer and the TX7.ĭexed includes six operators, faithful to DX structure. Scroll down to see the patch details as originally published and download them for yourself here.Dexed is a FM-type softsynth developed by Pascal Gauthier of Digital Suburban. This makes the patches from the notoriously difficult synthesizer compatible with many of the instruments in your studio, meaning you’ll be able to channel the ambient master in no time. While these sick patches could have been resigned to the dustbin of print magazine history, they have instead been restored over at Encyclotronic, where you can download the patches in Sysex format. In 1987, Eno shared four of his own Yamaha DX7 patches as part of Keyboard Magazine’s ‘Patch Of The Month’ column he titled them “Kalimba 2”, “Tamboura”, “Violin 3” and “Glide”. Now, thanks to the discovery of an obscure interview Eno gave thirty years ago, you can download a bit of his genius to bring to the studio with you.

For over four decades the UK musician has used the world’s great synths to masterful effect in his ’70s art rock albums, his krautrock collaborations and his ambient masterpieces.

Sound like an ambient master with these weird and wonderful vintage sounds.įew musicians know their way around a synthesizer better than Brian Eno.
