Phi Mu Labs: Origin

{See video at top of page}

Phi Mu Labs: Origin is a collection of timbres created specifically for FM synthesizers. These patches have been also used to produce Phi Mu Labs, vol. II library for Korg Wavestate and are included in that package as well. Origin also includes the patches in Native Instruments FM8 format.

All patches had been dialed up from scratch in DEXED, a software emulation and librarian for Yamaha DX7.

The patches in SYSEX format are expected to be compatible with a number of hardware synthesizers, such as:

• Yamaha DX7 (obviously).
• Yamaha DX7IID/FD.
• Yamaha TX7.
• Yamaha DX200.
• Yamaha TX802.
• Yamaha TX816/TF1.
• Yamaha DX1/DX 5.
• MiniDexed.
• Modded Yamaha DX9.
• Behringer BX1.

They should be also convertible for use with:

• Yamaha FS1R (for those fortunate enough to own it).
• Korg OASYS and Kronos (courtesy of its MOD-7 engine).
• Korg Opsix (some tweaks required).
• Preen FM2/FM3.
• Yamaha Montage and MODX series syntesizers.

Software options:

• Digital Suburban DEXED (these timbres were created with it).
• Arturia DX7 V.
• Plogue chipsynth OPS7.
• Reason Rack Extension PX7 (conversion required).
• Audio Nebula Aurora.
• Korg opsix native.
• Native Instruments FM7 (obsolete).
• Native Instruments FM8.

Limited compatibility with the four-operator FM synthesizers is expected as well.
