the website seems to be no more, has he stopped trading?

I bought FMHeaven the other week, so just wondering/concerned!

Doesn't look like a music software site to me.

Might just be down until someone resets the server.

Edit; It's a football site not religious, I thought it was a religious site!

A pity -- I enjoyed FMHeaven because there are literally thousands of Yamaha DX7 patches on the internet, and they were very compatible with FMHeaven. But as I have been forced by other software to upgrade from Windows 7, it no longer works (or at least I can't make it work). Trying to access www.loftsoft.co.uk on 2021-07-3 gives

Replying 5 years later...belated thanks for the pointer, Muki. The link you gave me is still good, and apparently the author Pascal Gauthier has updated the installer in 2024. So it's likely this project is still alive.

If you like dexed, you will love newer commercial fm synths like OPS7 or Swayed. If you happen to have an IPad, there is KQ Dixie which can send and receive controller data to OPS7 and also dexed if I remember correctly.

Not that responding to a going on 17 year old thread often makes sense, the FMHeaven site is partially up:

http://www.loftsoft.co.uk/welcome.html

I purchased it probably going on 20 years ago and unless it's been updated I don't imagine it would be of much use these days. But anyway it doesn't seem totally dead although the buy now link no longer works. The developer's email address is on that page so if anyone is looking for FMHeaven and not Dexed shoot him a message.
