Got it in my mail today. Looks like a great piece of software. I am really looking forward to play around with Phantom on the weekend.

... and 53 various sysex patches

What I kinda don't get though, in the DiscoDSP Homepage, it's written

Imports Yamaha DX100, DX27 and DX21 SysEx

But... why did they inser 72(!) TX-81 sysex patches? Unless they "reproduced" them. Because the only synths I know in VSTi form who can load those kind of sysex data natively are BigTick Rhino and LoftSoft FMHeaven (I should finally cave and get this one, as it is a huge competitor to ex-FM7, and I like the routing matrix better - but it seems to be discontinued).

... because they're loadable (via the import button of PHANTOM !)
although officially only DX21/DX27/DX100-patches are supported
all TX81-patches are loadable and functionable too
as tested a view minutes ago...

...and they sound wonderful !

Hm... time to update my list it seems, but then again...

Looks like the TX-81Z patches are conversions for the DX-21, which are then loadable in Phantom. I haven't installed Phantom yet, too less time, but this'd clear why it's actually working.

really? blimey, they are old ones from beta testing days, i think some other testers made a few patches too...

maybe ...
...i've got "unsupported format" message when loading DX100 sysex's.

1. do exist any "sysex-format-converters"
like TX81<->DX21, DX21<->DX100, ...?

2. how should the sysex be formatted
to be loadable into PHANTOM.

3. i like the PM-Synthesis buttons which make a better and smoother FM

4. btw.: DiscoDSP PHANTOM has the same color as
the main person in the PHANTOM comics of the 70's

I've got version 1.1 0f Phantom. I wonder if version 1.2 fixed the huge CPU hit. 1.1 usually eats up 20-25% on an X24800+ processor with only three notes playing. I should write them and see if I can get the upgrade to 1.2. I must have got it as part of a deal when I bough Vertigo.
