"This is an early 90's vintage Yamaha PCM Waveform and Voice Data ROM card set, "SAX 1". This is a nice Yamaha ROM card set for the SY55 synthesizer keyboard and the TG55 MIDI Tone Generator. These are the 2 cards in very good condition, in their original Yamaha jewel type case, with the spine artwork and data booklet.

These work perfectly, and provide 64 new voices and 4 new sample waveforms. About half the voices are either brass or woodwind type sounds, with the remainder being various keyboard, percussion, plucked, effects, and other sounds. The new waveforms can also be used to mix with the SY55 and TG55's on board waveforms to make your own new sounds as well.

The waveform card will also work by itself in the RY30 and RM50 drum machines, the SY85 and TG500 synthesizers, and quite possibly other Yamaha instruments that accept these types of waveform card. The "soft" Alto sax wave is my personal favorite and is very realistic sounding! The voice data card is only for use with the SY-55 or TG-55, and is to be used along with the waveform card to allow for all sounds to be used.

These kinds of sets are getting harder to find, especially together in their case with all notes, as this pair are."

  1. Hi, I have this card set but not the CD case booklet. Could you scan and upload the voice and waveform pages? Thanks :-)
