Yamaha DX-7 Patch Page. Home > music > instruments > yamaha > patches > dx7 > main.php. Here are some patch libraries for your pleasure, courtesy of Alexandre Souxa of Brazil. If you have anything to contribute,. I try to put new content on the site all the time.
C O M M E R C I A L S O U N D B A N K S Here is a repertory including actual and discontinued commercial soundbanks that I collected since over 30 years from ROM cartridges, floppy disks or books. For each of them you'll find comments about company or sounddesigner and a detailed patchlist. Several of them also include image(s) from the original support. This collection is not complete, if you have material that is not listed here, I would be largely interested in! This page is organized in three sections: ROM CARTRIDGES, EXTENSIONS & FLOPPY DISKS COLLECTION Companies/distributers (alphabetical order). SOUND SOURCE UNLIMITED SSU is an american society (Malibu, California) which developed complete sounds/samples libraries for a large collection of diverse synthesizers/samplers models. Their products were distributed by Greytsounds™ (Northridge, California - owner: Bob Grey) via their website since the mid 90's.
Sound Source Unlimited (SSU) was then renamed 'Sound Source Interactive' (SSI). Now, this website is offline since 2016. They seem to sell their products via their eBay store only. There were at least a total of 5 double ROM cartridges (banks A/B) for the DX7 mkI, most of them programmed by Manny Fernandez.
I only succeeded in collecting volumes 3, 4 & 5 through the years. I also know that SSU distributed a mega ROM cartridge including 8 soundbanks (certainly volumes 1-4). Any informations about it or - best of all - a sysex version of the missing soundbanks would be largely appreciated! 0703R A: 'Soundtrack' - B: 'L/A Voices II' 0704R 'Super L/A Voices' (2 soundbanks) 0705R 'Stage & Studio' (2 soundbanks) PA-DECODER PA-Decoder is a german company (Bielefeld) which produced 2 different DX7 mega ROM cartridges: - 'MONST-ROM' (16x32 - 512 patches). This cartridge was organized as a 4x4 categorized banks (A1-D4) that you could select with switches combinations. 'HYPRA-ROM' (32x32 - 1'024 patches/very rare!). This cartridge was organized as a 8x4 banks (alpha/beta A1-D4) that you could select with switches combinations.
It gathered all patches from MONST-ROM plus 16 new additional soundbanks. MONST-ROM (16 soundbanks). BO TOMLYN Bo Tomlyn is an american musician who worked with famous artists during the 80's-90's (Prince, Lionel Richie, Pat Benatar, Bruce Springsteen, Cher, Chicago.) as keyboardist or synth programmer. After the successful introduction of the DX series, Bo Tomlyn - along with Mike Malizola (Yamaha product manager) and Chuck Monte (owner of Dyno-My-Piano) - founded company (Studio City, California ) which distributed the nine DX7 soundbanks listed above (almost all of them programmed by Bo). It seems that company finally sold these cartridges under Key Clique license. I also read in a mid 80's commercial publication that Bo Tomlyn programmed the following soundbanks: 'Orchestral', 'Studio', 'Stereo', 'Hard Rock', 'Electro Techno', 'New Wave', 'Latin', 'India', 'Easy Listening', 'Church' and 'Country Western'. I never heard from it since and don't know if they were distributed by Key Clique, Symphony or another company.
Any additional informations or - best of all - a sysex version of it are welcome! 'Top Forty' (2 soundbanks). ISHIBASHI Ishibashi is a japanese company which seems to be at first a retail chain in Japan (around 15 stores - please, correct me if I'm wrong). They produced at least three DX7 (banks A/B) ROM cards.
'Volume 1' ROM card has been distributed in Europe as the card. 'Sound ROM' (2 soundbanks - also known in Europe as the BIAS ROM) 'Sound ROM 2' (2 soundbanks) 'Sound ROM 3' (2 soundbanks) MUSICDATA MusicData is an american society (Beverly Hills, California) which produced at least 4 DX7 ROM cards. I collected three of them (soundbanks extracted from the Jack Deckard's collection - many thanks to Paul Deco for the additional informations).
I'm still searching for the one which seems to be their first volume named 'General Library Series - Analog'. Any additional informations or - best of all - a sysex version of it are welcome! 'TV & Film' (programmed by Clark Spangler) 'Techno Studio/Live' (programmed by David Boruff) 'East Meets West' (programmed by Suzanne Ciani) EASY SOUNDS Easy Sounds is a german society (Hamburg - owner: Peter Krischker) which distributes two special DX7 soundbanks collections via their website: - 'Best DX-Collection' (10 soundbanks): a sort of 'Best Of' compilation essentially exctracted from ROM cards - 'Super DX-Collection' (9 soundbanks): a second compilation collection including an original soundbank ('Tekksyn') Both collections are now sold together as the 'Complete DX-Collection'. 'Best DX-Collection' (10 soundbanks).
SYMPHONY Symphony is an american society (Salt Lake City, Utah) which essentially distributed Bo Tomlyn's products under Key Clique license. They also produced a 4x32 patches (banks A-D) DX7 ROM cartridge named 'Symphony 128 - ROM I' programmed by Cosmo Watts. They proposed too 128 patches RAM cartridges. 'Symphony 128 - ROM I' (programmed by Cosmo Watts - 4 soundbanks) LIVEWIRE AUDIO Livewire Audio is an american society (Oceanport, New Jersey) which produced a 2x32 patches (banks A/B) DX7 cartridge named 'Super ROM'. 'Super ROM' (2 soundbanks) ELSON TRINIDAD Elson is an american keyboardist who sells his own DX7 programmations as independant a few years ago via the Web. E-mail him at [email protected] if you want to get this soundbank for a $16.00 price. 'Elsongs DX7a'.
There are.thousands. of old DX7 sounds out there on the web - free! Try these: and (links to patches there) FTP site: Also, google: DX7 patches My standard tips for making old DX7 patches sound great in FM8: 1) Go to the page and lift the Stereo Width - works magic! 2) If possible, increase the output volume. Most old patches are too soft. 3) Tweak velocity sensitivity on some operators - makes the patches more 'live' 4) Add reverb or delay etc - season to taste.

I also often reduce the detune parameter as many patches sound far 'tighter' when this is decreased. A slow chorus works a lot better on a pad patch than a hideous detune which renders the sound irritating and incompatible with other instruments. Hope this helps. Click to expand.Thanks for the interest. Just wanted to clarify a couple of things. We do not charge separately for both windows and mac versions. The sounds can be imported to both mac and pc just the same.
The 128 sounds that are available at the above link were programmed on FM7 complete with all FM7 parameters, effects, controls etc. We also have a larger DX7 library which we also offer that does not have the FM7 controls included. It can be purchased separately or as a bundle with the FM7 sounds. If you need any more info you can contact me at: Steve Proto Kid Nepro Sounds. Thanks, everyone, for the suggestions on how to find DX7 patches.
I'll be checking those out this week! I also checked out Kid Nepro and found patches for my old Roland D-10! For $25, I don't have much to lose if I take a chance on them.
They're also having a decent 'special' on Roland and Yamaha patches, too. I'm not affiliated with the company in any way, but I honestly didn't think anyone was still selling patches for hardware synths any more, and I don't mind supporting some of the better companies. Now, if I could just find patches for my Yamaha S-30!
