Welcome Welcome to the DX7s, the newest member of the growing family of FM digital synthesizers from Yamaha. Using the industry-standard DX7 as its starting point, the DX7s offers a number of important new features, such as improved sound quality, additional FM features, new performance options, and improved controls. Since there is so much material available on the DX7 family of synthesizers (and on the theory of FM digital synthesis), this manual will not be an FM tutorial. Instead, it has been designed to be a "users manual" in the truest sense - its goal is to help you make music with your new DX7s as quickly as possible. If you are already familiar with the operation of the original DX7, this manual will help you make the transition to the DX7s in short order. On the other hand, if this is your first FM digital instrument, this manual will guide you into the operation of your new synthesizer with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and explanations. After you are comfortable with the operation of your new synthesizer, you may want to explore the fascinating world of FM digital voicing. If so, consult the extensive list of reference works on FM synthesis listed in the bibliography at the back of this manual.
