I don't really care about the 32-patch thing, since I just sample and go, anyway. It might be the synth I would sell last, despite it's limitations. So despite some stupid details, it's still fun, easy to use and great sounding, I've fallen for mine.I'm in love with mine too.
#Reface dx dx7 patches software
And it sounds quite a bit sweeter than any software FM synth I've tried. Yes it's only 4-OP, but those 4-OPs does some stuff that many other FM synths won't, so it's not nearly as limited as some say. Yes, it can't use the old sysex libraries, but there's plenty more to do with FM synthesis. I use one myself, and it's by far the easiest for creating your own patches short of a software editor, and like has been said already hardware that requires software to use makes no sense at all! I would actually recommend the Reface DX, despite the BS 32 memory location limitation. The Reface DX isn't completely devoid of librarian, there's the soundmondo nonsense, and I believe there's some 3rd party options cropping up as well. They're pretty awful, but instead of replacing the EL backlight, its better to replace it with a better display, something like this: Most synths from this era and LCDs with electroluminescent backlights that have a very short lifespan.
#Reface dx dx7 patches plus
Well almost, the SY77 has two stereo outs, while the TG77 has that plus 8 mono individual outs. It lacks the keyboard, floppy, and sequencer (and about 20lbs!), but is otherwise the same. Its the same sound engine as the SY77 but in a 3u 19" rack form. I'd also second the suggestion to look for a TG77. Its possible that it could do TX81Z patches but there are not converters that I've seen, and I don't know TX81Z architecture well enough to know if the reface DX has all the necessary bits to make the same sounds. The reface DX only has 4 operators so it won't do DX7 patches. Its not a perfect conversion but is usually pretty close. If you want to dump DX7 patches to it, you need to convert them with a DOS program called dx2sy. First, neither the reface DX or the SY77 will load DX7 patches, however since the SY77 is essentially a superset of the DX7 FM implementation, it can pretty much make any FM sound the DX7 can. I've never used a PreenFM, so I can't comment on that.
