Free FM Synthesizer Dexed (VST Windows and Mac)

1 post · Sat Apr 22, 2017 4:24 pm

Hi

Im a new volca fm user and am using dexed as a librarian. This is such a great program. Thanks to the makers!

i just have a quick question. Im going through sounds from the dexed cart and am trying to make my own banks/carts of sounds i like. I have got an empty cart (downloaded from this forum) and im dragging programs to the new cart, then i am saving the cart.

im just not sure that im doing it right. every time i go to save the cart, it asks me for a new name. is there an easy way to just save the current cart with the current name?

or is there an easier way to be achieving what im trying to do? - make my own banks/carts of sounds i like from the dexed cart.

thanks again. this program makes fm possible to understand!!

There are 92 pages in this Thread, so I'm not sure if this has been caught already but I was looking around Yamaha Forums and found the following ...

DX7 All-Files Massive Collection of Yamaha DX7 Patches Saul Hudson

http://yamahaforums.co.uk/wp-content/pl ... hp?id=1067

There are tons and tons of files. Do they work with Dexed? I haven't tried yet but assume they will. They're in SYX format.

There are 26 Folders in all. Here's some text that's included with just one of the extracted folders:

======= DX7_v01 =======

8 SysEx (*.syx) banks extracted from original Yamaha cartridges. ROM1A file is in fact the Internal factory preload bank

I think that the collection compiled by BlackWinny covers this

mmmm... it does not appear in Ableton Live pluginn list (LIve 64 bit, on Mac OS sierra).
Is the audio unit 64 bit or 32?

Yes, when Zebra 3 is released. Probably sooner, like in 2018.

Wow, I'm in love with this plugin. Many thanks to everyone that helped make this happen. One question: is Dexed skinable? I would like to tweak the GUI a little bit, but I don't see the usual parts in the Mac package. I'm no expert at this stuff.

Where can I find BlackWinny's collection?

I believe this is the official link:

http://hsjp.eu/downloads/Dexed/Dexed_cart_1.0.zip

(Thanks BW for you hard work in getting this collection sorted!)

Yes it is.

And somewhere around the middle of the Dexed official page you have (here) a link which leads to this zip file.

Please, portamento!

I think it has to be implemented on MSFA.
