140 Yamaha DX1's made and not a single lucky handler of this beast who posts to YT can play it well D: i wish synths would try to escape their owners when they have no skill or at least imagination with the sounds. I understand this is an ebay ad but its a damn shame to hear a ultra rare holy-grail esque DX synth played with such ineptitude :/ it gives a terrible impression of this instrument.
One thing I will say about this line of synthesizers especially the DX 1 etc...was they were built like tanks, today they'd be made of cheap plastic for a shelf life of only a few years.
Never ever sell your Yamaha DX-1, I know a few people that did that and regretted. There is only made, they list for over $10,000.00 and as high $12,000.00. Mine is not for sale.
how can someome own this and not appreciate just how amazingly nice and superbly hi in quality this thing is! dont play bomb sounds LOL and TURN DOWN THE MOD WHEEL or get someone who understands how to operate the keyboard to demo it PLEASE!
@emilshere envy is such a bad feeling... LOL.. quit buggin him... in the description he excuses for his playing skills... no need fo this kind of messages...
I remember Reinhold Heil from the german band "Spliff" had a DX1. A large and heavy machine. In 1984 Synthesizerstudio Bonn in Germany offered it for 26.450 DM compared to the DX7 for 3.790 DM. In my opinion this was the expensivest

This guy had to either inherit it , or got it in an estate sale from someone that had no clue what it was.
It doesn't sound like he has much experience with it.
Right now it would be difficult for me to afford.
I'll just be happy with my KX88 and a couple of TX-816's and DMP-11 mixers.
Not to be a hater lol......
Dang it sure is in clean condition.

Yeah why is it that people who can afford these amazing machines are not the people who deserve them? Money can't buy talent I suppose....

Your mod wheel was up the whole time. That is why all the patches sound wobbly.

@schmittwilli Probably the most expensive keyboard instrument Yamaha ever made was the GX-1. Sticker price was $60,000.
