Subject: [PD] Announce: pdx7 - fm synthesizer for pure data


> PDX7
>
> is a realisation of 6-Operator FM synthesis modelled loosly after the
> famous Yamaha DX7. It is *not* a DX7 emulation, just an exploration of
> FM synthesis in PD. It doesn't even sound like a DX7. ;-(
>
> Even if you are not interested in FM synthesis, pdx7 might be
> interesting. It includes some useful abstractions like 4-segment
> envelopes [altough they need more work], a silly step sequencer
> and a configurable PC-keyboard-to-MIDI-values-translator patch.

>     * 6 operators,
>     * every algorithm you can think of, including the 32 DX7-algos
>     * DX7-like 4-segment envelope generators for index and modulation
>       factors,
>     * 8 voices default - add more if your box can handle it,
>     * virtually unlimited number of save slots
>     * 16-step sequencer [no saving here yet]
>     * configurable PC-keyboard-keyboard

> This patch is my first bigger work, that I did mainly to get familiar
> with PD's way of life - so don't be too critical with me...

> Of course pdx7 is not finished, I still work on it daily, but I thought
> it was time to share now.
