Yamaha TX816


images via this auction

"This TX816 is an 8 module rack-mount Yahama DX7 in good condition.
The TX816 is a monster DX synthesizer.
Each TF1 module is basically a DX7 condensed down to a single circuit board with almost no front panel controls. Definitely designed for use with external hardware and software controllers the TX816 allows you to easily carry around up to eight DX7s! Software such as MOTU Unisyn, Emagic SounDiver, or even another DX7 can be used to program the sounds in each module via MIDI.
??Each TF1 module consists of a 16-voice, 6-operator digital FM synth engine. So a complete TX816 with all eight TF1 modules would offer up to 128 voices and 48 operators! Each TF1 also features an indepednent balanced audio out (XLR) and MIDI I/O.
Note: On module #3 the memory protect button is stuck. Every other function and button works properly on all modules.
Serial # 3125"
