    I remember playing one of these in a band back in the mid-90s. It absolutely failed at what I needed it to do. Hearing it lately, it's pretty cool.

    There can be only one winner of "Synth of the 80s" and this is it! You can keep your Poly whats-its, and your D50 do-dads.
    Sadly, I had the DX27 which was a pale imitation of its big brother.

    That was great, I wasn't expecting the Mario 64 docks music! Nintendo primarily used patch sets created by Roland for the Super NES and N64 so it probably wasn't a DX7 in the game, but that's clearly what they were going for.

      I believe the original was made with a Korg DW-8000, it has an electric piano waveform that already sounds like 99% there, and with just the right editing it can be perfected.

    Love the DX7 because a lot of people don’t understand it and the power you can release from it. A lot of people and stars used the presets but if you go deep into the technology inside you can make some amazing sounds, even analog sounds that do sound like analog. It’s a great 80s synth that changed the way for better and for worse. But it’s not the synth at fault it was people just using the presets and only few bands used the programming side of it. The only shame is only they made it more like the DX1 which was more easy to program. Anyway love seeing this machine and hearing its wonderful sounds. I think it’s one of the best looking synths made and Jupiter 8 is one of the best looking analog synths made. Thanks for sharing with us and fantastic work as always from you, thank you.

    2:20 о, классический Мегадрайвовский бас. Всё ещё слегка удивлён, что раньше в игровые консоли компании, а особенно Сега, реально ставили для генерации звука почти те же самые чипы, которые тогда стояли в на тот момент передовых цифровых синтезаторах.
