Are these sonically different at all, since they do seem to have the same architecture....
I'm looking for some cheap fm-ish synhts(hardware, not software)...btw, are the sy22 or the sy35 editable like the dx series (the FM part)

the structure and settings in the fm engines should be the same for the dx100/21/27 (along with some other older yamahas), though there is a chance they dont have the exact same D/A converters and so have a slightly diferent sound to them. I think there was a variant of the dx21 that had a chorus unit on it, or maybe all 21's had chorus, im not completely sure.

those early sy's were 2op fm along with 12bit samples of strings and pianos and crap like that. you cant do a whole lot of interesting fm sounds with just 2 operators.

I hear the newer DX200 desktop synth is heavily under-rated... gonna look into it myself, well cheap also if you find one 2nd hand.

Get a DX11 it has a velocity sensitive keyboard.It
also adds some easier modifiers to the mix.DX27 is
a 21 w/ speakers.FB01 needs computer editor like
DX droid for atari or i guess other apps are
available for other platforms.Get a DX11.Find 2
sell me 1.It's like T99 in a keyboard.Nasty easy
to use and the last of the 4 ops if you don't
count that DS thing.Get a DX11.Get a
DX11.......

Shipping hassles, I'd guess. Import duties, customs, blah blah blah.

Hahaha....didn't they accept those loverly Euro notes? I know it's un-patriotic to spend Euro's instead of Dollars but they are legal tender...

;)

Anyway, I saw my bankaccount update and most of my saving seem to have reduced to next nothing (bad investements) so with no income and no reserves even a humble dx100 is out of my budget nowadays...
