Yamaha FX-1 FM based organ


George Benton

"General overview of the very large and ground breaking FM instrument from Yamaha in 1983. Sold for around 35K or more, it was the flagship of FM organ technology at the time. That same year, the DX-1, DX-7, DX-9 were introduced. This organ weighs 507 pounds. The bench is nearly 154 pounds with the pedals being 55 pounds. That's over 700 pounds!"
