In summary, the FM7 is great as an emulator of the DX7 but not convincing in being more than that:
Probably it's because of the hype, but this thingie really is a bit disappointing. Hell, it is synthesis from the early eighties, and that's the sound you get. Ten out of ten for being accurate on that, but there were little if no surprise-and-smile-effect, when I stepped through the presets: already had the impression of having heared similar sounds somewhere.
If the sound of past decades is just what you're looking for, then - on the other hand - FM7 really is worth a try, especially the sound editing gui is impressive and quite intuitive. However, the yellow-green-brown color mixture isn't contrastive enough and the fonts are sometimes too thin and/or small. Besides that, the gui seldom gets in your way.
