DX 100 Sounds

[samonik11]

LOVE the bass 2:10 i just picked up a dx100 is that a preset sound? or did you make it? do you have any patch material you sell? I'm looking to fill my dx with great bass sounds :)

[piplupsingularity]

I will know this as Hatsune Miku's sleeves.

[thelowlows]

Love the part that starts at 2:20 , reminds me of Com Truise, check it out if you don't already know it.

[shubelo1989]

@vinyljunkie07 What a great clip. Ive just got my hands on a DX7 II. Do you think I could get that bassline at 2:06 out of it? Thanks

<3 <3 <3

[djugel]

How would you compare this to a Korg 707 ??

[vinyljunkie07]

@djugel I'll compare it to the DS-8 as FM made easy :-) Think they both used the same Yamaha FM chip but don't quote on me that. Both great synths and I almost brought a DS-8 few times. Personally I'd rather have a DX-7 mk1 and DX-100

[djugel]

@vinyljunkie07

Yes, 707 and DS-8 are exactly the same.. except DS-8 has effects. I've heard they have the same chip as the FB-01? but is that the same as the DX100?

[audioproducer88]

@vinyljunkie07 where can I buy decent DX that's new or in good condition?

[SwimmingLights]

@vinyljunkie07 i love both dx 100 and 707 :-)

[VincentsVideoVisions]

is the dx21 basically just a full size dx100?

[vinyljunkie07]

@VincentsVideoVisions No, that's the DX-27. DX-21 is slightly different

[1slowhead]

@mirroreye63 A real piano creates a very complex sound. Yes the DX100 has a piano sound that is pretty lo-fi. A later FM synth would be more convincing.

I managed to program a piano sound I liked, using the piano patch as a starting point. Mind you, I prefer crap/unrealistic emulations of real instruments... so it isn't exactly impressive, just full of character!

[1slowhead]

Very good demo. The DX100 was also my first synth. I own two now, I love them!

I far prefer the sound over my DX7... the feedback on the 100 is greater than the 7; coupled with the grit of the less capable processing, it makes a hell of a lot nicer sound!

It contains the same synthesis chip as the Sega Megadrive (Genesis in the US) so the tone is pure nostalgia even on crap patches!

[mochorocho]

wow the beat kickin in at 2:10, thats the kind of shit im planning to produce... really wanna learn stuff like that... dont know where to start though ... thanks for your vids!

[Mirroreye63]

I have one, But dont have a power cord to it yet, I was wondering if It had just a piano sound?

[djsubliminalreeve]

you remind me of michael jean jarre



[SlowNews]

The Dx100 has only dry sounds. You can modify them however you like but don't forget, this is a mid 80s synth, way before trance came about. you should clarify what you used along with the dx100 as some of these examples are a tad misleading.

[t1mTV]

how can i program the sound featured at 1:13?

[ADVANCEDBREAKAGE]

PART OF THIS REMINDS ME OF ADAM-F "MUSIC IN MY MIND " INTRO LEAD. JUST GOT A DX7II FOR JUST OVER £120 QUIDOS , WOOP WOOP !!!

[djilyaz]

DX100 has no effects, while these sounds are obviously being effected, it would be nice if you told everyone..

[docrings]

Loved my little DX-100 for some portable goodness... gotta love the 80's and early 90's synths...

[RobTiser]

How did you do the filtered noise type sound right at the very end?

[vinyljunkie07]

@RobTiser That's the JX3P doing that sound

[vegunited06]

vinyl, don't suppose you know if the dx100 has a 'local off' toggle do you? was thinking as using this as a mother midi keyboard for its small space

[vinyljunkie07]

@vegunited06 Don't think it has mate, but it don't even transmit velocity data. What about a Bass Station keyboard...although it only has 2 octives it transmits velocity and shiz

[sanjac1974]

the sounds at 1:29 ffwd OH MAN, tell me how you did that???

[str3123]

Thanks for not replying to my question...

[regybear]

hey great sounds, can you tell me which preset this sound at 1:11 started life as?

[sauermusicDE]

Very nice demo! You added a lot of external delay and reverb (from Logic?) to make the DX100 sound as good as possible. I like the part starting at 2:22. Greetings from a user of the YS-100.

[str3123]

Man! After I heard this video I've got a tx802 from my father. I spend month searching this video back to get close to the amazing sound you do at 1:13.

Please I need your help! I tought you removed this but finally I've got ya again!!!

How did you that GREAT sound?

[mero696969696969]

can you till me where is the octava up and down button in the dx100?

[sneakytraxx2010]

nice demo cool, i like this synth fantastic !

[pixusbubblejet]

what delay effect machine are you using?

[InnerflamesUnLtd]

Fantastic sounds! Especially at 0:41

[vegunited06]

I made a 90s rave bass / 'donk' sound out of mine.

[vinyljunkie07]

I did that too when I had mine, all those 90's style Prodigy rave basses

[vegunited06]

yep! so yeah, finally got my hands on one vinylJ! and it's freakin awesome! i actaully went for the dx100 over the TXwhatever it is, just because you recomended it had a better solidbass than the latley bass on the TXwhatever heehe

[drifter7508]

Really great demo!

[SHOOTEARTH]

Hello. Really enjoyed your DX100 sounds.

Do you have a website with more ?

Would be interested to hear.

[7thgroove]

nice....

[distantradiance]

love the dub techno reference at 1:13. :P

[str3123]

@distantradiance love it too! It is what it conviced me to buy this piece of history!

[yohppoy]

good demo. it show the quality sonuds of this machine.

cheers

[therealsweep]

Nice work. Shows something of what can be done with these synths. Most people never manage to get to grips with them. It's good to hear someone who has.

[Trezire]

I have a dx27. Very cool!

[fhoplist]

I would like to have this mos def.

[aspidistral]

Hi, really cool stuff again, man. Thanks. I've never played with a DX. It's nice to hear some of what it can do. Very usable sounds indeed.

I'm using my NM1 for FM, and also making a MIDIBox FM with analogue filter. I have a feeling I would really like a Yamaha FM box too.

Cheer man.

[vinyljunkie07]

I want them all lol every DX has something different to offer wether it be sound or features lol so yea...on the list is DX7, TX81Z and a shit load more lol

Reason people don't like them is mainly cos they can't program them ;-) oh and they killed analogue synths so the old skool prob hate them for putting moog out of buisniess

[aspidistral]

I had a chance to buy a fully populated TX816 for a really low price once, but thought it was something I wouldn't want. I didn't know anything about it then, of course. Wouldn't mind one now though, or a DX7II.

Have you tried the FS1R? Seems to have good FM spec, and more. I quite like the SY77/99 keyboards as well.

[vinyljunkie07]

The FS-1R was the last great FM synth yamaha did imo, it's fantastic but it's a joke to program unless you don't mind using software...it's super complex and programing it is like trying to paint a room through a letter box.

Pass on the DX-7 II unless you have a DX-100 or 27..those two 4OP synths have the first gen 12bit convertors which sound the best imo..the mk1 dx7 also has these while the DX7 II has 16bit convertors..also the TX81Z has improved converters over the 100 and 27

[DonJuanDeMarco2]

I have a TX802, sounds really nice to me and has alot of power, but what is the lowdown on these things in regard to converters etc etc.

All i know is that the Terminator sound is on there and it turns me on lmao.

[aspidistral]

I'm not sure, though I expect the 802 would have 16 bit converters, being a DX7mkII rack module.

I have a TX7 on the way to me from Canada, along with a few other bits o' kit. Rather looking forward to it. I think the TX7 was intended as a voice expansion for DX7. There are no onboard controls, as far as I know.

The patch that comes in at around 1:20 in the clip above is rather pleasing to me. I hope I can achieve something similar in my TX7.

Cheers

[silvialain]

Good sounds ! There's a lot of potential imo for some of the samples you make , you should really try to complete a propper track and sell it

[ToshiAburakoji]

I'm loving the sounds, I need to find one of these next time I go shopping in the pawn shops

[flujotech]

Liking 1:13.

[vegunited06]

awesome

[PsychedeliSandwich]

great vibe at 2:30. good stuff man.
