Understanding the DX7 V interface
- Let's take a look at the interface of our DX7 V. First, I want to mention that DX7 V is an FM synth. FM stands for frequency modulation and it's a method of synthesis that uses the frequency of one waveform to modulate the frequency of another. In FM synthesis, these waveform generators are called operators. Operators are arranged in different relationships to one another and these arrangements are known as algorithms. Depending on the algorithm, one or more operators is usually routed directly to the audio output. On our DX7 V, we have 32 algorithms. Let's see how this works. So on the top panel here, we have some of our basic control settings that are global like transpose, tuning, amplitude modulation depth, pitch modulation depth, and pitch modulation sensitivity. And then we have our volume control all the way on the left and then we have some data entry controls. And you'll notice that, if I change the default preset to another preset, those data entry values change to control…
