And Dexed is not a Yamaha DX7 tho it can import Yamaha 6op FM sysex patches from.

At least that way you will have an idea of the time period over which an oscillator has an impact. Currently using DX7 manuals for insight, but one specifically for Dexed. I tried several visualisations but never really got to something that did the range of milliseconds to 300s justice! So I stuck with my somewhat linear display, but now calculate the length of each phase and display it.
Add to this that the timing of an envelope phase is dependent upon the levels that it is going between and you have very flexible, but incredibly complicated. These envelopes have ludicrous ranges of up to 300s per phase! In fact they have a length of up to 317s when they are acting as a declining rate and 38s when acting as an increasing rate. This means an oscillator can continue forever after the sustain phase, which is particularly useful for ensuring modulators continue modulating during release.įinally, there is the length of the phases. Velocity is just a lever on the volca fm:( ) then go for a dx7. Added an editor for the Korg Volca FM Added.

Secondly, the start and end value of the envelope can be non-zero. Patch Base is a collection of patch editors for new and vintage synthesizers, enabling easy visualization, editing, and organization of patches. The extra phase is right before sustain, meaning you can have a particularly interesting attack phase. Just make patches and send em over via sysex. Dexed is a standalone instrument with dx7 patch compatibility, as is the volca fm. So a patch you create in Dexed can be then sent to the Volca via sysex. Although the bulk dump includes settings for the operator output levels, you would also have to send all the other data for the current program in the same message. The website links to a number of freeware DX7 emulators with which these cartridges are compatible, including Dexed (Linux, OSX, Windows), Rockrelay Synth FM (Android) and KQ Dixie (iOS), while owners of Korg’s Volca FM module can also take advantage.First of all they have 5 phases, not the regular 4 of ADSR. As I understand it, its doesnt allow direct parameter editing, but patches are compatible between the two. This lets you send all the data for the current program (or for all 32 programs) into your Volca FM. The AI was apparently trained by being fed a large number of presets compiled by DX7 aficionado Bobby Blues (URL), and the model outputs cartridges that are 99.9% unique, meaning you’ll likely have to generate a LOT of them before you encounter any duplicates (if you ever do at all!).īest of all, however, is that you don’t even need to own a DX7 to make use of these new carts. Behind the scenes, however, a crafty bit of programming reduces the 155 parameters to just eight, which it assigns values to before mapping them back to the synth’s 155 value slots. In use, the website is a model of simplicity: you click on the button in the middle, and out pops a DX7.
Or use a different DX7 librarian app to combine the.
Or you can connect to Dexed using MIDI loopback and then use a tool like Sysex Librarian to send MIDI messages to Dexed. With its 155 parameters and tiny LCD screen, the Yamaha DX7 was never loved for its programmability - but a new website aims to take all the pain out of getting new sounds out of the world’s most famous FM synth, by generating them automatically using artificial intelligence. In your case Id probably recommend using an app like Sysex Librarian to load the patches onto your Volca FM, and then load the entire bank from the Volca FM into Dexed.
