![]() The frustrating part is that I can see no correlation between phase offset and modulation level in Sytrus vs. In summary, DX7-V imports and plays sysx patches well - with one caveat - As one youtuber found out, if you dont set the Velocity range to full (The red pentagon), certain patches will sound wierd. Thge "*"'s in the image are because I found both dexed and DX7-V needed to be transposed down, otherwise the ratios were out of sync with 0.5 in both DX7-V and dexed being equal to 1.0 in Sytrus.Īs you can see in the image, only when modulation was set at 13% and phase offset to 59% was I able to get exactly the same waveform out of Sytrus as DX7-V and try as I may, I couldn't get the same waveform out of dexed. Then there is the question of 1x ratio imported into DX7-V or dexed being imported into sytrus as 0.9989? What gives? Is it trying to pre detune through the ratio? ![]() And yes, I know what unison is and what it does, but It's not recreating the sound I am interested in, it's compatibility with the thousands of existing DX7 patches out on the interwebs. Having a detune that mimicked the DX7 would make it a damn site easier with sysx and I know there is also the trick of setting the pitch envelope to something small like 12 cents and doing it that way, but then you are "guessing" at the right detune rather than doing it scientifically. Would this mean 1Hz-0.91Hz = 0.09Hz on the operator for an equivalent "-7" on the real thing (or dexed or DX7-V)? Intrestingly FM8 does not have any detune either, but I could see it was adding a +0.91 Hz or -0.91 Hz offset for the +7 or -7 detune found in dexed and DX7-V. But then you walk into patches with operators that call for 1.00 Hz. I noticed Gol has replied several times over the years to people asking about the operator detune and he has steadfastly replied, "just use the ratio and freq to do this". So I looked at what the synths were doing in an oscilliscope when modulating a sine with a sine.įirst thing, I chucked FM8 away, nowhere near as good as dexed or DX7-V. ![]() So I loaded a patch called analog into all 4 and the differences were quite big. ![]() ![]() I own Sytrus, Dexed, FM8 and DX7-V and I thought I would do a comparison because Sysx patches in Sytrus sound sub par. ![]()
