The MOD-7 synthesis from the OASYS and KRONOS is essentially the RCM-Synthesis from the Yamaha SY99 and SY77 on steroids: FM-Synthesis with 6 Operators where Samples can be used as modulator or carrier. You can exactly reproduce any SY99/77-Sound with MOD-7 apart from the PCM samples which are of course different in OASYS/KRONOS. SY99 uses 8MB ROM and SY77 4MB (AWM)-samples.ScoobyDoo555 wrote:ozy wrote:sy77 = sy99 ??? both just romplers?
uhm...
I seem to remember a FM section in the sy99, but I owned it for maybe a month, and it was many many years ago.
I am probably wrong. Boy, it was so hard to program, it looked like an FM synth (but sounded indeed like a rompler, that's why I ditched it)
GOOD GOD no. The 77 & 99 are most certainly NOT romplers...... (trying to see where I gave that impression)
They are SO much more than that - but the presets are woeful. You need to spend time editing them - so far I'm up to 18 years...
Starting to get somewhere now!!:lol:
