"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Yamaha Reface DX FM synthesizer. Is this 2015 descendant to the iconic Yamaha DX7 , Yamaha DX100 and sibling of the Yamaha Reface CS worthy of the legacy and can it keep up with other modern FM synths like the Korg OpSix ?
