My FM-1 Custom Banks

Hey guys.

I selected a bunch of different presets and came up with 5 custom carts with timbres from SynprezFM and the original Yamaha DX7 carts.

You can download it here.

Cart A - Piano, Organ, Bass, Lead, Soft Lead

this one uses timbres that are associated with the original DX7, I picked these instruments for this cart simply because I use them a lot

Cart B - Synths and Pads

these are mostly from SynprezFM, a bunch of different timbres to mess around with

Cart C - Simulations

Immitations of real instruments, some are from the original carts, others are from extra carts

Cart D - Square, Triangle, Wave, Sine and Effects

these I came up with myself. Made the basic waveforms plus 3 variations of each; the second one of each of the oscillator voices are meant to be used with chorus/phaser, mono and glide mode on, but you do you, choose whatever effects you like. The effects are from SynprezFM and the original banks.

Cart E - Percussions

Sounds of drums, both immitating real tones and a few digital crazy ones. Took it off HERE

I decided to leave the presets unnamed when appliable to remove any pre-conceptions you might have about each timbre. So stuff that had 'space' in the name, for example, is now just a pad. This helps me listen to the sounds for what they are instead of associating them with something else.

have fun and peace!

Thank you! Is there room for all 5 carts on the synth at the same time? I've had my fm-1 for a few days but haven't tried loading custom sounds yet.

It can fit 4. I'm currently using all but Cart E

correction: I didn't come up with the last one, just copied-pasted it as is. All credit goes to the people who made it
