Hey guys. All has been quiet here on the group. I've moved house over the last 2 months, and that has put a bit of a dent in the time I have to do stuff with....
Hi! I finally got ahold of the service manual but the Part List section is missing. Is there anyone kind enough to make me a copy of that section? Thanks in...
Sorry that this is a little off-topic, but it's close to being ok..! I came across a Yamaha TQ-5 for sale, and I was wondering about how usable the onboard...
Edward this groups founder has a TQ-5 so if he's not real busy (he was moving) maybe he'll fill us in on this module. Yamaha has a decent manual on their...
Hey Mendoza, Narfman. The TQ5 can control other instruments, no problems. The internal sounds can be tinkered with on the unit itself, but, cannot be fully...

Back when I bought mine (on eBay) last year, I got it for £7.01 British. I didn't really get on with it, though, so I gave it away for free on FreeCycle. I'm...
Possibly another newbie issue - I received a unit with a dead RAM 5 cartridge. A fresh replacement battery and some solder later, trying to toggle a...
Hi Mu, Welcome to the group. It sounds like the cartridge isn't getting any power. What sort of battery did you use? Did it come with leads or did you solder...
I had just started getting my head around my FB01 before other obligations forced me to cast it aside for several months, during which time all knowledge has...
Hi Mark, I found this tutorial. http://www.anthropomorphic.us/fm/ Not sure how good it is. There is also Chowning's FM Synthesis tutorial for the DX7. Edward...
Paid $40 including shipping for it. It has no problems, but the guy I got it from deleted the original patches and put in some crappy ones instead. I didnt get...
Welcome to the club, Bill. You can most certainly do a bulk dump from a Dx7 to a Tx7. The patches will sound every so slightly different, but, that's ok. In...
Hello fellow Yamaha Black Box Users and Lovers of FM Synthesis This list has been a little quiet. I had a lovely package arrive in the post yesterday -- some...
I'm new to the group but have a whole bunch of YBB's. I began aquiring them after picking up a Yamaha EZ-EG midi guitar. The EZ-EG is a bit quirky as a...
Awesome stuff. I've used a guitar midi controller with my Tq5 (which is a hotted up Tx81z) and an FB-01 before. What was the EZEG like? I've considered getting...
Hi Edward, yeah I've been keeping an eye out for a TQ5! I love the EZ- EG but it has a few shortfalls. It would be great to be able to access all of the...
Ask, and ye shall receive. I will only have this online for a short period of time. No doubt it will be spotted, and up on a schematics for cash website within...
Thanks!! That's fantastic...just what I needed. Yeah, it kills me to see how much information that was originally freely shared, such as sysex patches or...
I recently had that problem with a Roland Pro-E. Yes, you can find one on E-Bay or Musician's Friend for about $15 but I decided to go another route. I...
I've been digging into my newly aquired TX802 and it sounds great but it seems like a bit of a bear to set up. I wish I could just call up and play the...
