Propellerhead has announced the immediate availability of PX7 FM Synthesizer, a new six operator FM synth for Propellerhead's Rack Extension format.

As a recreation of the popular DX series keyboards, PX7 provides a wealth of new sounds to the Reason rack, ranging from classic 80s bass and brass to modern textures, leads and growls. Propellerhead has improved on the original too, with macro controls for easy tweaking of sounds and stereo panning as notable new introductions.

PX7 is fully integrated with the Reason rack, allowing users to create layered sounds, combining it with effects, and even control operator levels through CV.

Included with the Rack Extension is a set of new patches for PX7 and Reason's Combinator, from "talking" bass sounds to evolving pads. Additionally, the PX7 FM Synthesizer is patch-compatible with the Yamaha DX7, and includes hundreds of patches originally created for the DX7. Propellerhead also provides an online patch converter that takes patches in Yamaha DX7 format and converts them to PX7 patches, giving users immediate access to tens of thousands of presets for PX7 covering all styles of music.

Pricing & Availability

PX7 FM Synthesizer is available for immediate purchase in the Propellerhead Shop, at a price of $99 / €79. Reason and Reason Essentials users can download a free, fully functional trial version for 30 days to try PX7 FM Synthesizer in their music.
