"Highly sought after programmer for the DX7, the only way of having control of the DX7 with nice widely-spaced knobs in a dedicated format. It makes a difficult-to-program synth far more accessible and opens up new realms of FM sound. This is the Mk II version, which will talk to the TX-816 etc as well (though we haven't checked that out). There were reportedly other useful improvements made to the Mk II. The main problem with these rare beasts is that because they are very long, and the base is not the most solid thing in the world, they can be flexed and suffer from unreliability from bad connections. This machine has a smart solid near-mint flightcase to avoid that possibility - and we would recommend actually using it on the top of the flightcase unless you have a large flat table to put it on."
