Hi Paul, Welcome to the group! It seems there is a newer version out there but finding may take some leg work. Here's a link to the info I found on V1.5 for...
Hi Paul, Did you find this link? http://www.manualscenter.com/advanced_search_result.php? keywords=TX802&osCsid=ef3b0e6d6209f35afa6ea613aac6a991 These guys...
Greetings: I do believe I have 1.5 in my ROM Image Library. I also believe that it is the last Rev. ever done for the 802. If I recall, there are three (3)...
My TX802 is running the missing V1.2 31-JUL-87 I'd like to export it to .bin file but I'm not sure how. Also being able to upgrade to V1.5 would be nice! ...
Hi Cristofe, I like your site and related links. You must have a bunch of friends on Ebay too with all the gear you refurbish.... To copy the eproms you would...
Hi Fran, Thanks! Yeah, E-Bay's been pretty good to me both as a buyer and a seller. Its a great time...I think the whole softsynth scene has made some of the...
I didn't think this was possible??? The DX100, DX27, DX11, are mostly compatible with the TX81Z. However the FB01 has it's own 4op structure that is not...
As far as I know, no automated patch dumper has been made. The modulation indexes are all totally different, the sinewaves, even though they're just sinewaves,...
I was cruising around the web yesterday when I stumbled onto a 4op patch converter for the FB01 on the YSEDITOR page. It was written for Atari ST and is...
Maybe its time to close this case. You cant feed the FB-01 with TX81z patches! Its a myth. I had to try myself and ask all you black box fans. But I have read...
There is a Beetle PR-7 DX7 Programmer for sale on Ebay. Search for item # 130136779301 It's been used and abused but it's very rare..... Sorry if you got this...
I was looking at that last night! I guess back in the day it was a godsend. I suppose it would be cool in a live setting but would'nt it be easier to use a...
Hey Cristofe, That Beetle programmer never made the full term of the auction. I'm betting someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Here I thought all my...
He..he..he..fugeddaboudit!! I'm originally a Jersey boy and my grandpa was...no kidding...Guido Fiorelli...but I got no idea what yer talkin' about..;) The...
Hi, I just got a TX802 and was wondering if there is a way to reset the Performance patches to the factory default. I tried the memory initialization procedure...
... patches ... initialize the ... I'm not in front of my MIDI notes or manual, so I hope this is not redundant. This is reinitialization procedure if the...
This is just slightly OT but I figure someone here might know. I have installed new lithium batteries in many Yammie FM synths. Just about a month ago I...
I have a Korg M3R that does the same thing. None of the datalines connected to the CPU change. Here's what I checked so far... The power supply has good a 5...
Thanks Fran, Well, its for sure not the ps. I tried swapping out the ps from my other DX-21 and no change. At this point I'm guessing the CPU must be fried....
Hi all, recently I got a yen for some exotic sounds for my MIDI studio, and wanted to find an EMu Planet Earth module, and had a very hard time, in fact I...
Hi Karl, Ebay has to be the easiest way to get most anything you want. You just have to deal with the other bidders inflating the price according to every whim...
Echoing Fran....EBay will give u the largest selection to choose from. Another great route is craigslist.org. U won't get the variety, but u cut out the...
I admit I have the idea that there might be a specialized small business opportunity in buying and selling used MIDI sound modules. I used to work for a...
I am trying to troubleshoot a yamaha tx16w that keeps prompting for a disk. The floppy drive that is currently in the system is bad. I have tested it in a...
Hi Brian, I have successfully made the Yamaha and Typhoon boot disks for my TX16W from PC but it's been a while since I played around with this beast. Here is...
Thanks for the link to Athana Fran! I've been looking for a solid reliable source for DSDD discs! Cheers.....Cristofe ... as ... member ... hasn't ... with ......
Fran, I will try the link out and give that a shot. I had actually purchased a box of 720K DSDD floppies to eliminate one other problem. I am just concern ...
