"YAMAHA DX7 CLASSIC SYNTHESIZER/KEYBOARD AND ULTRA-RARE, EXTREMELY PRACTICAL FORAT MSM 2000 (MODULAR SYSTEM MEMORY, $350 VALUE WITH INCLUDED ADAPTOR)
You already may know what a legendary keyboard DX7 is, with its own individual sound (with some harmonics in it that are not reproduced by a modern computer workstations imitations). Also included is a fantastic Modular System Memory by Forat. In our opinion, this is best standalone sound memory cartridge ever created. Unlike some expansion boards by other companies, the Forat combines a standard DX7 card behavior and convenience with its innovative on-board computer approach and there are no additional electrical changes required for DX7 or its firmware to use it. It permanently stores 64 standard DX7 sound banks (64*32=2048 sounds total!) and allows you to freely switch/rotate between them with additional ease-thanks to a big internal display. Best of all, it comes already preloaded with a wide variety of sounds for you to get started instantly. If you will ever want to load your own DX7 banks, simply select bank number to erase/format, then press write button (its lamp will light up) and perform a standard DX bank store-to-card operation. The lamp will go dim and your soundbank will be found under the same number (with this mega-card you can freely disconnect it as you would any standard Yamaha card and for example, connect it to another DX7 if desired)."
