Thank you very for the incredible response on this set ❤ I’m happy to announce that also the Modern Keyboard Soundset - Volume 2 is out now! Here’s the demo video: ua-cam.com/video/8XPZD4C0XQE/v-deo.html Enjoy!
Some really nice patches, well done. The DX7 has to be one of the most versatile synths of all time, it just keeps on surprising what it is capable of!
Preso usato da una settimana devo ancora immergermi nella programmazione , ho avuto problemi con un cavo midi economico , ora ho provveduto a prendere un’irig2 midi
I got the no.2 set as I like to tinker around with 80´s sounds and trying reverse engineering via softsynths ( Dx7V/ Ops7/ Dexed for sysex files ) Next payday I will definately get my hands on this and it will probably be a blast loading them into a hardware machine sometime in the future, Great Job!
Awesome demo! 😎🤘🏻 🎹 I’m a huge Yamaha fan and this synth sounds killer. The Nintendo synth sounded awesome. I guess now I know that sega megadrive/genesis synths aren’t the only synths you can get from this synthesizer. Other than that, great synth.
Why do people even attempt to do analog sounds on an FM synth? They sound NOTHING like analog strings, bass, pads, fx, etc. The DX-7 is capable of so much sonic goodness...what is the point o trying to make it do something it not only was not designed to do, but can't do well, at all.
Short answer: given how much overused and ubiquitous can be analog sounds nowadays, the process of exploring that ballpark using a different synthesis method can lead to some interesting results, surely not always authentic, but in many cases sounding like a different take on the classics. Then it’s a matter of taste, and luckily tastes are personal :) The purpose of my set is to share a collection of FM-generated sounds i programmed and i would use in modern contexts, not to demonstrate that FM is better in making analog sounds than analog synths :D
amazing playing, i couldn't make the 21. clavinet sound cool to save my life, goes to show what a good musician can do with just about anything that one sounds so FM harsh to me, not really my taste of tone, almost all of them are great to me otherwise, but yeah, harshness is the name of the game for FM, right? they have some nice metallic clang if you go crazy on the knobs it's amazing how those complicated operators can sound like when you drive them right, right? it's just that tweaking knobs and the system of self modulation or chain modulation is very hard to grasp in terms of predicting the outcome of things, fm is notorously user unfriendly when compared to your additives and subtractives but nothing can clang like FM can even with 3 ops, it's so powerful if you do understand it, but programming them is like is like surgery lol i mean, just listen at the best the sega megadrive had to offer in terms of music, things actually made for it, and not just converted with some presets from GEMS because it was ported, i mean the real stuff. (that said, sonic and the such also abused the PSG for the high pads sounds, so it's kind of cheating) many also suffered from sampling too much so it all sounds bad now this is why i prefer mid-80s c64 music over the late stuff or even amiga stuff too, it was way more hardware synth based rather than PCM... the sampling fad hadn't kicked in yet, and those still sound crisp today, wheras the sampled stuff... well memory technology wasn't that far yet so everything had to be downsampled to thrash, it's the actual real synth stuff on the c64 that stands the test of time... not the PCM it doesn't even seem to suffer much from the problem most FM patches have, where eitehr the low registers sound nice but they kind of sound very thin and almost as if they're upsampled when going into the highs (like those slap bass patches) maybe it's the playing though :)
Thank you Alexander. Yes, the first FM row of synths have the edgy tone in the high frequencies you’re referring to. You have some tools programming-wise to tame this thing, but still it’s a part of the character of those machine. In later models, namely the SY77/99, there’s a couple of filters that work well to further sculpt the sound and explore different directions. I programmed a set also for those machines too. Curious to hear your opinion on that too :)

Thank you very much! You’re right, the DX7 (and all its subsequent lineage) is a sound designer’s dream! So deep and versatile!
Bellissimo suoni ! La versatilità del dx7 è impressionante !
Ed è anche divertentissimo da programmare 🙏🏻
Preso usato da una settimana devo ancora immergermi nella programmazione , ho avuto problemi con un cavo midi economico , ora ho provveduto a prendere un’irig2 midi
@@lukeluke508sì, i cavi economici non sono indicati per trasferire dati SysEx
RM Nintendo was spot on and beautiful job with the Super Mario Bros theme!
Thanks Ted!
if only there were more demos where the person can actually play or has some semblance of musical talent. really brought the dx7 to life.
Indeed having a professional at the keys adds a whole new dimension.
Nice diverse patch set BTW.
Patch 22 is trippy 🤪
What? You don't think this guy could play? WTF is wrong with you and you got 10 likes for that insult?
Holy shit you played those lead patches SO WELL! Those sounded SICK!
Thank you sir!
Fantastic demo, thanks for taking the time.
Thanks a lot to you Rob for taking a listen to my work and for your nice feedback on it. Very much appreciated :)

Thanks a lot for the support, sir!
Legend, they should have hired you for the presets
Thank you 🙏🏻 I wasn’t even born 😅
@@rm-studios Is it possible if I buy the Packet that you send me all the settings so I can program the patches manually?
@@lostboyz6454you can open the sysex file using the free editor Dexed, and see all the parameters from there
Great sounds!
Thanks a lot!
Sweet. Loved the Caribbean. Very Miami Vice sounding.
Thanks a lot, Richard!
Totally!!!! I imagine Jan playing it on a vice episode
These are all great, especially 5 and 19.
Thank you very much, Adam!
Great playing!!
@@larryfinke6133 thanks sir
Caribbean Blue Enya!! ouh yeahh!!
Hi Roberto, Nice sounds demo 👍 is this patch available or compatible with Kronos FM engine ?
Hi Chris, if you’re able to load the original presets of the DX7 into the Kronos, then you can load also these patches :)
Awesome demo! 😎🤘🏻 🎹 I’m a huge Yamaha fan and this synth sounds killer. The Nintendo synth sounded awesome. I guess now I know that sega megadrive/genesis synths aren’t the only synths you can get from this synthesizer. Other than that, great synth.
Square waves (and sawtooth waves) are really easy to make on pretty much any FM synth tbf
Very good sounds. Are you using editing software like Sounddiver or Patchbase?
Thanks a lot. Not necessarily. Most of them have been programmed on my DX7S
Spettacolo 🔥🔥🎹 grandissimo
Grazie di cuore, Alberto!
Nice!
Thank you!
Amazing sounds you made. What song are you playing with the oberheim at 3:58?
Thanks a lot, I was just improvising something on the spot
Ciao possiedo una dx7s puoi consigliarmi un’editor sysex utility per caricare i preset da Mac OS X
Certo, Snoize SysEx Librarian
Grazie ! Ma con dexed non funziona ?
@@lukeluke508certamente, anche con dexed
@@rm-studios grazie , lo userei anche come editor visivo
Melody name with RM Kernkrft, please?

Super!
Grazie, Carlo!
I love it. Thanks
lil' Chick Corea on patch 10 there
Yes, I spotted that too! Nicely played.
Uau !
Show !
Excelente !
Thank you, Sir!
Wery good work
Thank you Patrick!
Hi where can you purchase this cartridge please ,,,thanks
Hello, all the infos are in the video description :)
beautiful, what song is playing with RM Synthwave?
No one in particular, just improvising :)
Where can I buy the Sounds?
Hi, thanks a lot for your interest. You can find all the infos for purchasing the set in the video description :-)
Sounds like 90´s videogames sounds
90s sound cards used the same FM technology to make sounds, so totally spot on.
good job!!
Thank you very much
Impressive near super-saw - but a cigarette rather than the full cigar.
1:09 Me lembra o Amiga Game Hybris.
Best patch is nintendo. It sounds so accurate
btwcan you make a full track with the 05 synthwave like in the video it sounds good
And when i have an dx7 iid with e grey matter? Can is use it ?
Yes, you can!
@@rm-studios ok nice and did you have banking? Because i dont have paypal 😅
Edit btw greetings from germany 😅
@@singrun7618 Sure, please send a mail to rmsoundbanks@gmail.com . Thanks a lot!
@@rm-studios ok you have a mail
melody name with sound 11
It’s a little impro freely inspired from a song of my band ‘MaYaN’. Check out ‘Essenza di Te’
No Stairway!🙂
😅😅
Patch 18 has no volume on a DX7
Check your global parameters.
Will they work on my dx11?

@@rm-studios would love to see you do 32 patches, that show off that synth, that no one has done before!
Proof that modern sounds suxck!
Then you’re in luck! A plethora of classic sounds for the DX7 readily available on the net at no cost!
@@rm-studios Thanks for the reply. I'm interested in an old DX7 for my studio. Good to know.👍
amazing playing, i couldn't make the 21. clavinet sound cool to save my life, goes to show what a good musician can do with just about anything
that one sounds so FM harsh to me, not really my taste of tone,
almost all of them are great to me otherwise, but yeah, harshness is the name of the game for FM, right?
they have some nice metallic clang if you go crazy on the knobs
it's amazing how those complicated operators can sound like when you drive them right, right?
it's just that tweaking knobs and the system of self modulation or chain modulation is very hard to grasp in terms of predicting the outcome of things, fm is notorously user unfriendly when compared to your additives and subtractives
but nothing can clang like FM can even with 3 ops, it's so powerful if you do understand it, but programming them is like is like surgery lol
