A software recreation of the famous Yamaha DX7, and much more. The FM7
adds fantastic, creamy filters, effects, and is perfectly compatible with the
original DX7 from 1983. I did a side-by side comparison with my DX7 and there is
practically no difference! All the patches load up perfectly, and the factory patches on
the FM7 are exactly the same as on the original "brown" DX7!
Features
- powerful digital sound, augmented by warm sounding filters and effects
each (often just playing an octave up or down).
