Yamaha TF1 single module


via this auction

"Here is a single TF1 module, intended to be installed into a TX816 (or TX216) rack which can hold up to eight of these... Obviously, this module does nothing on its own and requires that you have a Yamaha TX816 or TX216 synth with at least one empty module slot, and that you know how to use the synth."

What does it mean to RECAP old gear? | Yamaha TX816 in need of help


video by Espen Kraft

"I recently found out that my Yamaha TX816 had bulging capacitors in the power supply. I was a little pressed for time so Anders Jensen stepped in and offered to do it for me. Thanks buddy!

So he shot the complete job and I shot a couple of clips and presto; here is a nice little video for anyone interested in what it takes to actually replace all the capacitors in a power supply. Necessary evil if you want to keep your precious electronics free from harm and enjoy your synths for another 30 years.
Now I "only" have to recap all the different boards as well, but those aren't as critical as the power supply as a bad power rail there can easily fry everything down the line."

"Some tones from my Yamaha TX816. Its going through my new (old) Yamaha REV7 multi FX. NICE!

I used all 8 units (the TX816 is 8 DX7s, or 4 DX5s, in a rack) which I sent to the Yamaha MV802 mixer and panned them all differently. Then I detuned some of the voices while the midi notes were being played"

Can You Hear The Difference? Yamaha TX816/802


Espen Kraft

"As a teaser for my upcoming monster FM duel video between the Yamaha TX816 and TX802.
I made a little 40 sec cover of the Ducktales "Moon theme" and used the exact same patches on both modules. Just a bit of fun - not to be taken too seriously.
Can you hear which is which? Please give your guess in the comments section.
If you want a 24bit Wav-file of the two please find that here:

Answer will come in the main video shortly."

Yamaha TX816 FM Synthesizer - 8 DX7's in a Rack

via this auction

"Yamaha TX816 - 8 DX7's in a Rack! - 8 Digital FM Synthesizers

Nice Condition, overall very clean!

This is a classic of FM synthesis. This edition of the DX7 has the pretty, cleaner sound of the MKII as opposed to the grittier sound of the original MKI.

I would say the sounds are also more powerful than the MKI.

I just installed new batteries in all 8 modules - they are metering 3.3 Volts

This one is loaded with 8 banks of my favorite sounds.

Sounds from the Yamaha VRC Collection, SoundSource Super LA D50/D70 collection, and various other carts I have owned over the years.

I consider these patches to be of high caliber, I cannot guarantee that you will like all 256 sounds but there are lots of great ones.

Fully Functional. I have been using this as two large 4 DX7 Synths for years. I like to route these to a mixer and mix between 4 sounds each to create 2 huge sounds."

Yamaha TX816 - 8 DX7's in a Rack

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"TX816... this is essentially 8 DX7s in a rack... AMAZING possibilities... endless sonic creation. This is THE FM beast to have if you don't want to spend the coin for a DX1 or DX5.

It is listed as EXCELLENT... not for cosmetics as it has scratches, scuffs, etc.. but excellent because I just spent $400 having this synth Recapped and had 8 new batteries installed AS WELL as installing new battery slip in clip holders on each module.. so if you ever need to replace batteries.. no soldering required.. just slide in a new CR2032!"

YAMAHA TX816 - 8 DX7 Synthesizer Modules in 1 w/ Docs & Flight Case

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this auction

"I set up these modules so that they each generally pertain to a certain kind of sound, though some modules are more varied. For instance:
Module 1 is all bass sounds, including a great Tuba sound
Module 2 is mostly pianos and clavs.
Module 3 is mostly electric pianos and bells.
Module 4 is organs and synthy organs, which a timpani thrown in for fun.
Module 5 is mostly strings, with some percussion.
Module 6 is mostly brass and some great pads
Module 7 includes woodwinds, harmonicas, vibes, and more percussion.
Module 8 includes guitars and an assorted mix of more interesting sounds.

I very selectively searched through hundreds of sounds to choose the ones I have here. I was looking for the most musically useable. I tended to stay away from very reverberant sounds, because I figured that reverb can always be added to any sound, and obviously it can be more specifically applied in that way.

Included in the sale are the rare TX816 Operating Guide, a bunch of vintage literature, and a print-out of the names of the sounds in every module, which will help you to see how they're organized. Each column represents a different module: 1 thru 8 – a treasure chest of great sounds. Lastly, as you will see in the photos, the winner will also receive paper copies of hundreds of more charted out DX7 sounds."

"Rad Yamaha TX816 , 8 modules of original DX7 12 bit FM bliss. This thing is really cool. I love The DX7 and this is literally 8 of them, same components etc. racked. All work and have no issues, batteries just replaced. The one minor issue this has is the grommet around the power button is gone, the unit turns on and off fine, its just a little wiggly when using."

YAMAHA Synthesizer TX816 FM Tone Generator - 8 DX7s in 1


via this auction

"The TX816 is essentially 8 seperate TF1 synthesizer modules linked together. They can be operated off a single common MIDI input or on seperate individual MIDI inputs and each has its own XLR output jack (thats why we include the set of cables). By running the cables to a mixer you have 8 distinct synthesizer voices from 1 keyboard."
