ORIGIN OF THE DX7 & FM SYNTHESIS


madFame

"In the special episode of Synth Quest, I present the origin of FM Synthesis and the Yamaha DX7. Special thanks to Dr. John Chowning and Mr. Hiro Kato for setting my course to research this story. I consider the research in this video as the tip of the iceberg. If anyone has additional photos, information, or prototype examples, please let me know so I can update this video.
