I wonder if you could help me. I used to have an TX 802 - long time ago. Now im trying to find one of my favorite sounds from this machine for use in FM8, but although i have a lot of libraries i can't find it - maybe you can help ?
I was a simple percussion sound, like a table and the higher pitch you played the longer decay and brightness this sound would play - making it a very dynamic perc sound.
Do you know which sound im talking about ?
nice regards

I do remember the sound you are talking about. The FM synth engine could make some truly unique sounds, and among them hand percussion instruments were very possible. The TX802 hit the market some 28 years ago (whew!), I'd like to say I could put my hands on the data. But I promise to take a look. By posting perhaps someone here has that sound archived somewhere, and will point you in the right direction.
See the old copies of Aftertouch here on YamahaSynth... The Father of FM (Dr. Chowning) has a post of a Slap Conga... You can use that to build on and tweak into the sound you can use.
