They could do a bunch of demos tomorrow. Who knows (besides Yamaha). It'll "mostly" be over on the 10th although we see when products are released t...

I downloaded the ROM 1A SYX from somewhere and used FM Converter and got the same broken Marimba. That said, when I look at the original SYX file imp...

Do yourself a favor and don't try to figure out anything in that ZIP file. I don't know how those were created - but they're not right. The times ar...

There's only 4-ish days to find out, but I'm guessing a lot of the DNA will be the same. I'm not expecting envelopes to have different shapes you can...

OP5 adds the mallet strike. OP4 and OP5 are almost identical in the level envelope but contribute differently to the sound even if you turn OP3 off (...

You're not doing the right thing if you cannot hear what OP3 is doing by following my suggestion. I'm patient, though. Here's a more detailed appr...

The reason why it doesn't matter is Manny is setting up a change in the frequency response and is using attack level + time to get at the desired resu...

Yes - the supplementary manual is cumulative but I prefer to just look at MODX where much of the same information is already integrated into context a...

BTW: since BM sneaked in as I was typing - I'll add: I actually appreciate both approaches. Using your ears and running the numbers. I see value in ...

I'm not using MARIMBA off of a free DX7 converted library rather I'm using "FM Marimba" which is already a Preset and seems to generally match this Ma...

Do not try to force the equivalencies but sometimes old documentation can give insight. If the documentation is helpful in any way and doesn't genera...

If I wanted the same I would start with the same exact envelopes. If I wanted shorter, I'd start reducing the appropriate time values. Or longer, I'...

Looks like the tech talk puts an official endcap on when we will have more information. 10/10. This seems to align with previous rumors that the ke...
