Turn the power off and then back on.Ī Japanese variant of this is called the "V2" and is the same synth with a different name.
Press and hold the button, then the button, then the button. To perform a factory reset, turn the power on. Typically the battery is desoldered from the board and replaced with a battery holder so that future replacements are easier. The RAM battery is a CR2032 that is soldered to the circuit board, so it's difficult to replace. Like the TX81Z, YS200, and TQ5, the sound engine is based on the Yamaha YM2414 chip. It allows the use of non-sine operator waveforms, which makes it possible to create richer sounds than those available to sine-only 4-operator synths. It is the keyboard version of the TX81Z, which was released first. In contrast to previous DX-series synthesizers, the DX11 is 8-part multitimbral. It's still in the works but finally have a working prototype.The DX11 is a 4-operator FM synthesizer. So after much thought, I decided to make my own hardware FM synth desktop module based on the DX7 with some new features and it has been a lot of great fun! I use a Raspberry Pi running Pure Data as the microcomputer inside and a small OLED display to provide visual feedback and display envelopes for the different operators. Sometime in the new year I began looking for a DX200 but just found some of the front panel features a bit limiting after doing some reading so I thought I'd pick up a Volca FM, but then I would only have 3-voice polyphony at a time. But at the end of the day I still love to sit back and use FM for the synths in the my tracks. There has definitely been quite a stir in the industry around analog synthesizers in recent years that has even led me to lust after multiple of those instruments over and over again. While I haven't picked up my own DX/TX model yet, I find it curious that we don't have more dedicated modern hardware FM options (aside from Reface DX/Volca FM). I definitely agree on throwing on some warm saturation to add even more character. I really enjoy programming FM patches far more than on other architectures, it's such a fun rabbit hole no matter what kind of sound I'm going after.
