Jens, I Need help !

Post by Mathieu_Power » Thu Mar 31, 2005 1:22 am

Hey Jens ! I just bought a Yamaha DX7 some weeks ago and I am quite..unhappy of the sounds :S

So I though you could maybe help me to get better sounds for metal and rock :P Because what I have on this mamouth keyboard is some UFO sounds and 100% synth souding strings...I guest you added these sounds from others keys or simply created them ?

But beside the sounds, what a cool keyboard :d I understand why you use it live :P

or write PM, but if he did that, we wouldn't know that he has a question to Jens, and play keys. So now you know what has a major importance...
So where does the power come from to see the race to its end?
From within.

Dude, Jens use the DX7 as a midi-controller.

I suggest www.google.com

If you can't find what you're looking for there, I suggest you go to elementary school and learn how to read. Nah really, there's never too much information if you're really interested, reading and learning everything that comes on your way is a good way to make progress :) By time you'll find your own ways and learn how to filter out unnecessary stuff but you'll only know when you're ready for that when you are!

As said before, the dx7 is not useless! You can create lot's of funny and riveting sounds on it. Will take you some time, of course. But the thing is, a dx7 will never be able to produce good sounding acoustic instruments like for example a piano. But it is a good synth! Now, save up some money and start looking for a module.

Blah!
