Yamaha DX7 Digital Algorithm Programmable Synthesizer

via this auction

Interesting that Yamaha went with "Digital Algorithm Programmable Synthesizer" rather than FM in the label description. Algorithm referred to the various combinations of operator modulation pictured in the middle shot. In the same way you picked your oscillator waveform in analog and PCM based digital synths, you picked an algorithm in the DX7. You'd then edit from there.
