See the reviews previous ones, everything is there.
a dtail: no effect (s) "on board", but, coincidentally, the bte marries very well with Yamaha effects. And those are also the prices drisoires. And as someone said a dj, it's just unbeatable. Crez you something impossible (the synthse FM ...) Global Warming and you all with the effect ... Or how to make a synth hyper-efficient, allowing the search for less than 400 ...
For memory, each FM sound oprateurs 6 = 6 envelopes ... TX 802 can be stacked up to 8 sounds ... dj with 3 sounds, there are still 5 voice polyphony available, and one is 18 envelopes, 3 LFOs, the detuning between the sounds, etc ... etc ... add effects ...

UTILIZATION

The manual is clear, even if sober. The edition is not so difficult is the plutt synthse FM takes effort to understand the principles. must admit that to get change with the aim paramtres a sound rsultat foreseeable, asked a few Entran. but the possibilities are standards ...
The edition of the "combis" (performance in the particular case) is fairly comfortable against. Many shortcuts available.
Note that, as such, I would much 8 / 10. but hey, now, with apps ...

SOUNDS

Sound / style of music that can not bte the prs do everything in terms of synthetic sounds. and can not leave anything prs drinking in the area of ​​acoustic instruments. although, some sounds of flute, for example, by changing dynamics of the harmonic content, and no loop is much rvlent use suprieurs (crdibles = more & more music ) a lot of sounds produced by playing back samples.
Style of music: let's say for a symphonic soundtrack is not srement what to ...
and a trio ba / Dr / pno jazz, mvouais ...
but hey, it's a synthtiseur ...

effects? see CHARACTERISTICS.

the expressiveness? This is the maximum possible with machines. This is the principle of FM who wants a. Each oprateur the VLOC its sensitivity. Therefore, volume, attack and height of each modulator, or the carrier will vary depending on the CONTRL (VLOC aftertouch / modulation /...)

take a test. DX7 sounds of the famous "tines" yes yes, the electric piano of DX that has invaded the 80's, Listen to the versions you find in all the samples or even readers of the market samplers play in, then return to the original ... Only from the smoothness of tone and expressiveness precisely. You decide ...

+ + + sounds:

--- sounds:
Yamaha poque preset, or how to get pass a diamond for a clump of earth.
Note max. as synthtiseur. (What, I rpeter ...?)

By the way, it's true that the soft current equivalent is better in absolute terms, but you really have a great sound card to compete with the PCHE and finesse of true. it's not a matter of convertos etc ... it's just a means.

OVERALL OPINION

2 years 20 years ago, and since 8 months, bought used for 130 ...
The +: the sound. almost impossible with anything else.
the -: ease of use (Polyphony / no effect / ... not comparable with the current stuff.
I joupossd tal in quite some time. Juno-106/JX-10/S-50/MKS-20 Roland, Korg WAS emax2/esi-32 EMU, Alesis Qs7.1, Dx7/dx7II/SY-77/TG-500 Yamaha, Kurzweil K1000/K2000 ( also the one, it's just scary ...)
repeat the choice.
yes, of course. concd but I was not all that far not.
As always, a matter of choice. So depending on what you want to do, depending on how you want to. a machine will not have. but as such (you know, a s. .......) is a must.
