PATCHMAN MUSIC offers three Volumes of professional sounds for the Yamaha DX7. Each soundbank contains 32 all-new Pro Patches. Many of the patches in these classic soundbanks have been programmed to make special use of the mod wheel for such things as brightness, adding a layered sound, adding attack, etc... We offer outstanding quantity discounts when ordering more than one soundbank. Please see below for complete details.
PATCHMAN MUSIC currently offers three soundbanks for the DX7:
- A collection of DX7 patches have also been published in diverse old '80s specialized issues. I programmed them manually and compiled it in diverse soundbanks. 1°/ Here is the complete collection (85 patches) published in the 'Keyboards Magazine' french version collection during the 1987-98 years. Most of them are readers' creations.

Yamaha DX7 sysex Sound patches. This page contains downloadable voice data as.sysex files. A sysex is a binary file that stores a sequence of system exclusive MIDI information mirroring the memory of the device: to transfer it you need to hook your Yamaha DX7 to a computer via a MIDI connection, then use one of the many sysex managers available for both Windows and MacOS to transfer each bank.
Volumes 1 and 2 are for use with a standard MIDI keyboard controller
Volume 3 is for use with a MIDI wind controller or breath controller
Please note: These soundbanks are NOT available on DATA CARTRIDGE.
Yamaha TX7 owners, please visit this page for details on our soundbanks designed specifically for the Yamaha TX7
IMPORTANT report regarding the DEXED Softsynth Emulator: We have tested the DEXED apps on both desktop and iOS. The desktop version (available here for free) works perfectly fine loading in our DX7 soundbanks and we recommend it. But you should AVOID the iOS version DEXED. DEXED for iOS DOES NOT WORK. It has very high latency rendering it unplayable, and the breath controller parameters and reception are non-functioning. Breath controller does NOT work at all with the iOS version of DEXED.

User Comments...
EWI Virtuoso Ed Calle Comments...'Your stuff is great. I am just starting to get the EWI back in shape for the new tour and will be using your sounds extensively. All the best.' - Ed Calle, Grammy Nominated, Sony Latin Recording Artist and wind controller virtuoso. Has worked with Steve Gadd, John Pattitucci, Arturo Sandoval, and many other top professionals |
'Thanks so much for DX7 Volume 3. I really have no idea how you did all that, but the sounds play so, so well with a wind controller that it's just mind-boggling. The analog emulations are especially a gas. Layering these with my EWI modules has a stupendous effect because the FM synthesis layer adds a grainy 'warmth' to the overall sound.'
'This is a wonderfully useful set of breath controlled sounds from the best programers in the world. Thanks guys!'

These DX7 synth patch libraries are where it all started. In the early 1980's ManyMIDI's founder, Elmo Peeler, did a session for Producer/Guitarist Roland Battista (formerly of 'Earth, Wind, and Fire'). Although the producer was happy with Elmo's playing, he wasn't happy with the 128 available DX7 sounds (the factory patches). When Elmo left the session that night, he vowed he'd never be caught short again for excellent patches. As his collection grew, the need for efficient organization became apparent. When a producer asks for a different bass patch, you don't want to have to wade through flutes, harpsichords, and strings to find more basses for fast, efficient A/B comparisons!
Keep in mind that some of these ManyMIDI DX7/TX7 patches were used by Stevie Wonder on his 'Characters' album. Pete Townshend's Eel Pie Recording studio and The Beach Boys are also among the many pro's that use these DX7/TX7 synth patches.
ManyMIDI Products has developed the largest and most highly-organized, professional synth patch librariesavailable for the DX7, DX7S, DX7II, DXII-D, DX7II-FD, TX7, TX816, and TX802 synthesizers (and FM7 and FM8).
The price of these is $29.95 per library, with an Unconditional Money-back Guarantee. Every purchase is secure and risk-free.

The 6225 DX7 synth patches in these sound libraries are the finest available from any source. Every kind of sound that the synthesizer is capable of producing is included - no type of sound is left out. If you want to make the most of your MIDI studio, these sound banks are exactly what you're looking for - guaranteed!
In 2001 Native Instruments released the FM7 software synthesizer, and in 2006 the FM8, which are software versions of the Yamaha DX7. These software programs run as VST, AU, or RTAS plugins, in addition to standalone-mode. They can import System Exclusive files (.SYX), which means that these ManyMIDI DX7 synth patches can be played in the FM7 and the FM8.
'We have been using your TX802 library for some time now and have had very good results with it. We write and produce music primarily for television. Some of your patches are featured weekly on a national basis.' - G.H., Las Vegas, NV
'The 4,009 DX7II-FD sounds are good. I love the way they are organized. Please send me the 2,216 Percussion voices.' - M.M., Olive Branch, MS
'The DX/TX Set #1 collection of your voices that we have is excellent. It's a nice product. Please send the percussion voices of Set #2.' - D.M.S., Boston, MA
'I have your Roland D-10/110/20 set. I can vouch for the fact that it makes much more sense than organizations like Pop, New Age, Rock, Top 40, etc. These names really don't help you find the patch that you have in mind as quickly as having things organized by instrument. Overall, I would say that the patches are an outstanding value. From my experience, ManyMIDI technical support is excellent. If anyone is in the market for patches for synths, I would recommend checking ManyMIDI Products out. I will be purchasing your ESQ-1 and TX81Z patches as soon as I get the money. A very satisfied customer.' - J.A., Urbana, IL
