    An online random DX7 bank generator. Generates SysEx files so you can import them. I managed to get them imported to my FM8 without issues.

    Enjoy!

    Thanks for that! I somehow managed to get one of the best tine sounds I've ever heard completely by accident using this. Works great in Dexed too!

    Is it possible to use it offline? or any offline alternative to this?

    I morph and breed presets (between any two "parent presets") with Dexed already. But thanks!
    Edit: I can do this in any VST/VSTi.

    There's a script on the site. No idea whether you can use it offline.

    Does it mean: we can recreate presets for DX7, FM8 and Dexed and then compare both software synths side-by-side to hear the difference between them by using same preset/bank?

    I would like to throw out a randomly generated thank you, kingchubby, for the cool link.

    From github:
    "Dataset
    Big thanks to Bobby Blues for collecting these DX7 patches. This was the only data source"

    I think if You're good at FM Synthesis or You have some nice Yamaha DX7 patches
    a good idea is to contact with author:
    Nintorac Audio
    [email protected]

    And send him some presets.
    Some sounds from classics, famous songs will be good or if You can share some your own patches will be great.
    I think any help like that can improve this project.

    Cool! :wink: ... So these will also work in Sytrus (by Image-Line?) Since, you can manually import .syx files into that plugin?

    Also, I wonder if there was ever a tool available to quickly convert DX7 '.syx' preset files into the native Sytrus file format (as Image-Line made the import .syx menu a little bit cumbersome to access within Sytrus?)
