Loads of DX7 patches here http://bobbyblues.recup.ch/yamaha_dx7/dx7_patches.html
thank you.
This is actually a very interesting emulation. I haven't really been impressed by FM8 as _an emulation_ of DX7s etc, but I can respect it as a good synth in it's own right. From this I actually hear a very DX7 sounding synth. I think brass patches sound very cool for example, in a way that can't really be made with other synth types. Well done.
And man is the interface pretty.
Jk, it looks ass, but charming in its own way :)
Outstanding DX7 emulation ! A masterwork !
Features to add :
- A "panic" button that kills all sound output as some sounds seem to be buggy and loop forever.
- An "init" button to start sounds from scratch, like there was one on the original DX7.
The "init" button has been added in the 0.7.0 version.
The sound loop bug is fixed; so, no need for "panic" button.

tnkdesbois: I hear ya. I think the "loop" you might talk about is when you play a patch and change patch while holding a key, then the old patch never receives a note off and keeps going, if I'm not mistaken. But your problem might be different.
And you can actually flip back to the old patch and hit the hang up key to make it stop. But yea, a bit confusing :)

It is not here that you should write all that. Talk about the code and the compilations here is totally useless. Te comments written here are sent to the users, and 99,99% of them are single users, not at all involved in the development nor in the tests.
The right place to talk about the aspects of the development, the code, etc. it is on the forum of the Dexed development:
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=413885&start=285
Thank, I missed that there was a dev forum for Dexed.
I think for all the novices it should be helpful to make them aware that the original DX7 had only a velocity range up to 100. Todays MIDI standard is 127. This actually srews up the majority of all classic DX7 presets. Its like playing Piano with a slegde hammer. So please, before trying to explore those old DX7 presets make sure you adjust your masterkeyboard or software so your velocity will not exceed 100.
Hello opoo.
Come and join us on the dev forum of Dexed! You're welcome.
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5904565#p5904565
great stuff. thanks, man. could you add the feature "key mode" please? I'm not sure if this is only in the dx-7 II. you can switch there from polyphonic to monophonic and especially unison poly with the unison detune from 0-7. sounds great.
See the new GUI:
http://le-son666.com/software/dexed/dexed0.8b1.png
See at the bottom left of the picture, just above the blue button called "Store".
So... once more, as I answered just above to opoo, I invite you to join us at the dev forum of Dexed. It is the right place to discuss the features, not here on the place made in the current page for general comments on a product.
In the dev forums everybody is welcome to suggest new features, comment those which are already existing, report bugs, try beta versions, etc.
The dev forum of Dexed is here:
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5903996#p5903996
Sorry, I answered at the other forum now.
Just wanted to say that the new GUI is amazing!!!! Thank you!!.
I love Dexed!!!.
brilliant! this thing sounds just like the real deal, now... if somone could just make a free D-50 emulation as good as this without getting sued!! lol.
That's the difference between emulating a synth based on unpattentable, uncopyrightable mathematical formulas and emulating a synth based on proprietary, copyrighted waveforms.
However you made a point here : Only Korg turned it's old flagships into VSTs (see the legacy series). Yamaha could have done it with their brilliant DX but... Digital Suburban did (and they had 15 years or so between the invention of the VST norm and the release of Dexed to do so !), and having set it as an free open source project is even greater.
It's a shame that while Roland used to own cakewalk software that they didn't do - atleast for their in-house daw Sonar - a D50 VST emulation.
Anyway, I never tought I'm gonna get a plugin - and especially a free / open source one ! - coming so close (read = being the exact equivalent) to the almighty FM emperor the DX7 was !
Congrats, Pascal ! (Digital Suburban).
So I was working with dexed v8 a couple of hours and here is what I came up with:
much better, but still....
the six operator windows are still to cluttered. Increase the space between them and make more contrast to the background. Have background black for example.
Separate OP1-3 and OP4-6 with the lower parameters in the middle.That makes it more friendly.
when i work with FM I want to see all 16 algorythms to choose wichever I find appropriate. Dialing is distracting.
The way its on the DX7II is exactly how I like it. Yes it takes some space. But a great synth has a right for his space. Don't worry.
For me it was also always important to mute some operators, while working on the others. Best way for this would be to click and toggle on the operator in the algorythm grafic, which should change its color for on or off.
I also need to point out, that the DX7s had only a velcity range to 100. All this old original sounds have been designed under this.
Today all keyboards run up to the 127 real easy, which destroys the sounds many times. i used to use "velocitycurve" from Trombettworks to tame my keyboards. I suspect it would be a good idea to implement a "velocity tamer" in the app.
Another one: What happened to the Aftertouch ? No Aftertouch?...
Now sadly I myself never learned how to program, so I have no idea how much work my suggestion require. But I dare to mention all this because I have been working with the DX7s since it came out, you know when.

A small Dexed video demo, made using v0.8 (the one with the new gui). Demonstrates a few patches (classic DX patches and newer pads) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSs1-020nNY
Splendid demo!!! Superb.
Dexed 0.8 under Reaper x64 on W10 (!) - flawless. And reads the zipped SYX batch like a charm (just a splendid idea - to parse ZIP contents and place them as separate banks, each corresponding to SYX file) - great job!!.
OOh! Nice new GUI! Thank you.
I love the synth. I have a major problem though. I am not the best with computers. i managed to install it via juce and use it in ableton (on Mac). after doing a clean OS X install on my macbook i had to reinstall Juce and dexed. now i just can't remember what i did and can't seem to make it work. is there somewhere a manual as to how to do this? I love the synth and miss it.
Fantastic plugin. Huge thanks to the developer, especially for version 0.8.0, amazing stuff. Hope he can find a way to commercialize it some day, I'd gladly pay average synth VST prices for this. Can't speak to how close it actually is to a real DX7, but it doesn't matter -- on its own it's a great, great synth.
Nice VST / Editor .
i use it since a few days to edit my TX-802, all seems works very well.
i only found two small problem when saving sysex :
- the num pad keys + and - in/decrease the prog. change into host (into the the save as box)
- the output level seems low vs other VST.
great job, thanks :)

Hi! I just need an Operation Manual for this amazing synth? Can you help me please?
Dexed is an emulation of the Yamaha DX7 synth, so the best way to learn is to get the DX7 tutorials (youtube) and books. Its all about Frequency modulation.
Dave Benson's DX7 Page use to be a big dedicated webpage with lots of things about DX7. Lots of books, lots of links.
Hey Guys, sorry to bother but I just can't seem to install Dexed on my Mac (10.9.5). I can't find a way to open the files (just packages), I have installed Reaper. Maybe someone could give me a walkthrough ? Propably just a really basic problem — it seems that i really am the bottom of the barrel in understanding computers. Would be greatly appreciated if someone could help, i could give you my email so I don't annoy anyone here. Thanks in advance, T.
Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I am in the same situation. Dexed looks fantastic but I can't work out how to get it running on my Mac (OS X 10.9.5). Thanks.
Ok figured it out now.

Can someone point me to the original DX7 factory sounds as presets for Dexed?
They are in my Dexed Cart. You will find it here at the chapter Cartridge Manager. My Dexed_Cart contains all the original Yamaha Sysex (and many others), all carefully sorted by folders to find them very easily. Follow the instructions written by the developper in the chapter Cartridge Manager to install it.
Hello, .
I'm new to dexed & would like to add your Dexed_Cart. I can't find it. The Dexed_Cart.zip link doesn't work. I would appreciate advice.
Further to this inquiry BlackWinny. I found your Dexed_Cart on a Yamaha DX7 site & managed to add it to Dexed no problem. Thanks for this, it's a great resource.
Dexed 0.9.1: AU validation fail in LogicPro 9.1.8 (MacOS 10.6.8). Can anyone confirm this?
Hi.
This plug-in is fantastic! Excellent sounding alternative to my dx7ii-fd when out of the studio, and for auditioning sounds.
I have a small request for the cart manager. Is it possible to display the name and location of the currently loaded SysEx file? I sometimes need to find out where I found a specific patch after I have closed and reopened the project, but the file-tree resets to the default location. If the "currently loaded cart" section displayed name and location it would be much easier to find the sound.
-Fred.

Hi, .
I've had my DX7 since 1985 and have lost all my cartridges over the last 30 years! I really want to get this plug in working! Can anyone help? I'm running Logic Pro 9 on OS 10.6.8. I've put the VST and component in their respective folders in the library but when I run the AU manager in Logic Dexed always fails. What am I doing wrong?
Clarkey.

HELP!!.
I have Digital Performer 8. Dexed works fine in the program but on Mac there is no right click function. I couldn't find any video's showing me how to "send" a patch to my Volca FM....Can anyone HELP!!!.
Thanks.
Mark.
Thanks for the update... But the download links (both folders on top) of your page are broken.
Until its fixed you can access download here: https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed/releases
Seems that in link should be just 0.9.2 (https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed/releases/download/0.9.2/dexed-0.9.2-win.zip) instead of v0.9.2 which is now and not working (https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed/releases/download/v0.9.2/dexed-0.9.2-win.zip). Same for Mac.
thanks mate.
I apologize if this request has already been met, but I've had one hell of a time trying to find proper conversions of the famous "Lately Bass" & "Solid Bass" patches for Dexed. FM8 seems to convert them better, WAY BETTER. But I was under the impression Dexed performs maths more in line with what the original Yamaha units did. I've probably downloaded over a dozen factory SYX banks directly dumped off of DX100 & TX81Zs. I've converted all of them with DXconverter - which is a python script. Ive also converted them directly in FM8 - they sound tighter & more crisp for lack of a better term. When loaded in Dexed they sound flabby & Solid Bass sounds completely different... If someone can please point me to a 1:1 accurate Dexed compatible Lately Bass & Solid Bass patches I would be VERY grateful!!!.
If I'm not mistaken, the Solid Bass and Lately Bass are patches for the TX81z/Dx11. This synth uses 4 operators with multiple waveforms available for each operator. The dx7 however, which dexed is based on, uses 6 operators, all strictly sine waves.
FM8 has multiple waveforms so it is able to convert the patches. Dexed can not.
But there are a ton of bass patches for the dx7 out there which can be imported into Dexed, so you may be able to find an alternative..
- Fred.
Any possibility of downloading earlier version of Dexed, say 0.9.1 or even 0.9.0? I ask because I'm unable to open Dexed track with Ableton Live project made with earlier Dexed version.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Hans.

Found the patch I was looking for: "Plane 1". (I had to go back to the 24-bit engine resolution to make it sound right.)
However, I've still got the problem that all my Ableton projects which used a pre AU version of Dexed won't load the Dexed VST. I get the message "VST Dexed: The VST plugin could not be found". I've got the latest version of Dexed installed which works fine, both VST and AU.
Any tips would be very welcome indeed! I'd hate to think I've lost all my work :- (.
Thanks.
Hello, .
When it is to talk about issues of a plugin, the best is not at all among the discussions in the product page like the present one, but to relate the issue in the forums. Many instruments even have dedicated threads and sometimes even dedicated forums. And for Dexed there is a dedicated thread (running since 2014, the last post published two days ago) where you are ABSOLUTELY sure to meet almost all the users involved in the tests, among them of course the developer of the plugin. For Dexed it is here.
Free FM Synthesizer Dexed (VST Windows and Mac)
Discussions in the product pages of the KVR database are to talk about very minor problems (where to find it when it is hard to find, etc.) or to give quick feedbacks on the personal use (deeper feedbacks with gift of a note from 1 to 10 are to write in the tab "Review" at the top of the product pages, like this one for Dexed). Discussions about technical issues, suggestions of improvements, etc. should always be written in the forums to be sure to be read by all the very engaged users of the product. So, to be sure to have real answers (advanced or deep answers, and even discussions with other users having met the same problem for example and having solved it), use the link to the thread to write your issue.
Thanks BlackWinny. Duly noted. I've just posted where you recommended... H.

It's a really well done emulation of the DX-7 in every respect, amazing really, even the quantization noise is exactly like the original.
I'm getting a lot of stuck noted when using the AU in Logic Pro X, and am unable to clear them, even loading a new patch keeps the old patch playing. The only workaround I've found is to unload and reload the plugin.
I have really only had these issues when in the "CART" mode, auditioning sysex patches and banks.

I knew Dexed was very close to my original DX7 mark1, but wondered how it would work in a mix. If anyone shares my wondering, take a listen to this: https://youtu.be/wbMzttE-jys
When I compared some patches with my Yamaha TX-7 module I noticed that the Amplitude Modulation (Labeled "AMD") isn't working.
This thing is the bomb!!.
I downloaded the Arturia 'alleged' DX7 V. What a bloated piece of ...
400 MB of disk space, 279 MB of memory, 8 time slower to load.
I couldn't even set the ration properly (.995), after the level it's the first thing I do.
As far as DX 7 emulation is concerned, Dexed is orders of magnitude better in nearly every respect.
It would be cool if it could emulate later versions of the DX7 like the Mark 2 variants, especially the DX7II and DX7IIFD. Just a thought since not all DX7 patches work on this VST.
Why can't anyone submit reviews for this?
Is it possible to add glide/portamento to DEXED (It is supported in the original DX-7)?
so I'm using the latest version of this plugin and iv got a few technical issues. when i play around in my logic pro x DAW - the main problem in the DEXED is when i knob for automations like the sustain and a few more knobs when i used the earlier version it worked fine and i did a few wavy cool sounds from scratch... now without the automations its inpossible to work.. pls if u know about this issue i would appreciate an quick answer thanks allot.
hi guys, .
quick question - how do i load a _single_ .syx preset - _not_ a full bank .syx file?
Hi,
I'm still working on Snow Leopard (never touch a running system) and since my hd crashed I can't find the dexed install files anymore.
The latest working version was 0.61 but I can't get it anywhere I look. Perhaps someone here knows how I can get dexed running on my old OS?
That would be more than great! Thank you :).
Older version can be found here: http://www.le-son666.com/software/dexed/index.html
Hi, .
Thanks for this beautiful software !!!! A great option he is missing is the direct IMPORT of my patches / banks from my DX7.
when I create a patch in the hardware synth it would be nice to be able to import it into dexed (also to share it).
I found this link.
http://bobbyblues.recup.ch/sysex_procedure.html
Cheers.
I accidentally set the size to 150%, and now the button to access those settings is offscreen where I can't reach it. Is there a way to fix this?
Is it the latest version as available on whatgear? It says 0.9.6 there..
Hello I report a problem with Dexed v 0.9.6 in Ableton Live 10.
If you select a preset in Dexed after recording a track at each opening of the project Ableton Live signals that there have been changes in the.
project even if nothing has been changed, I think that Dexed sends a program change message every time the project is opened, if you select.
the default preset and save the project, no changes are reported when the project is reopened.
The program change message should only be sent if it is automated by Ableton and not always.
Is there any way to get a search function for the cart browser? It would really help speed things up a lot, unless i'm missing something.
Thanks.
Dexed is compatible with Mac OS Ventura already?
Why does global transpose respond to both parameter number 13 and to parameter number 1570 and why does only the latter work in reverse to notify the host?
Curiously,
