"From the Manufacturer- Combining a 6-operator 16-note polyphonic FM synthesizer with over one hundred rhythm sounds & a 16-step analog-style sequencer, the DX200 is one of the most unique "groove boxes" available today. Thanks to its realtime control knobs, you can easily get inside this once-forbidden FM architecture & effortlessly tweak the voice parameters to come up with totally bizarre sounds that have never been heard before. Many hip-hop and techno producers are already hip to the punchy bass sounds & radical metallic textures that can be created with FM, and now you can, too!

  1. If you buy it, try to use the patch selection knob as little as possible (ie use midi to change patches where possible). I had to replace the knob on mine.
    Fine synth / groove box otherwise.
