"We'd never seen a set of Hillwood Basky II bass pedals before. Tony was sold on the funky faux-denim finish and groovy coloured knob caps; the bubbling acidic filter when we switched it on was an unexpected sonic delight.
We like the sound it makes, but we don't know much more about this vintage synth at this stage. It's in full working order and the controls are simple and self-explanatory...
The condition is good overall. We've added replacement knobs as some of the originals were missing. There is some very old plastic tape on the tops of all the pedals - this may well be removable but it will be a time-consuming task and does not affect the operation of the instrument."
See the Basky label below for more.

How to learn Yamaha DX7 Synthesizer: FM synthesis – Sound Design Tub Bells Improvement Part 2
Published on Jan 27, 2017 Power DX7
All parts here.
"This tutorial series introduce many ways that you can apply to make improvements on the famous DX7 factory patches. Part 2 will revise what we’ve learnt so far in regards to the famous DX7 Tub Bells patch. Then we will focus on the algorithm interchangeability to make an improvement on the famous DX7 Tub Bells patch.
Although my tutorials use the DX7 for FM sound design, what you’ve learnt here can be applied to any FM synthesizers, including Yamaha dx7 vst and plug-ins such as Dexed, FM7 and FM8.
However, the resulting sound can vary due to limitation with software emulation of the DX7 FM synthesis."
