…hovering with the mouse over the algorhythm…

The word is 'algorithm' and it is not related at all with the word "rhythm".

Good name for a synth though

Though rhythm could be algorithmic

Have been trying this out - incredible work, it sounds great!

Thought there's room for improvement on the useability front, though - could the GUI be rearranged into more logical rows & columns along these lines?



So the controls for each operator occupy a row of a table.

It'd make the interface a lot more clear / streamlined / intuitive / readable / whatever. and reduce redundancy on the labeling. Plus, sliders are much easier to understand and compare at a glance.

There's a history of DX7 editors being laid out in rows:





Also, a popup menu for selecting algorithms would be authentic, useful and i imagine fairly straightforward to add. This came with the TX802:



Thoughts?

It such a shame that that DX controller didn't get a proper release, it was only used by Eno?

I think it was almost more of a DIY thing - only 25 ever made and by 'Jellinghaus', not Yamaha.

Here's Eno's, auctioned off in 2005.

New GUI is pretty nice, but yes, this is an ideal interface.

And to think people hate on REs...

Many thanks for Dexed!!
It brings back all the old famous DX7 sounds.

That's a beauty – an interface that positively invites tweaking. I'd certainly appreciate a GUI following (closely) along those lines.

Propellerheads were very dumb to refuse a VST port for PX7

I already pointed this out a couple of months ago, even before the creation of the current GUI: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... 5#p5877240

I agree this is almost perfect as a GUI, but you have to realize this is a design of Propellerhead

I doubt that there's any chance they'd port their REs as long as Reason has users. It would be nice, though.

But I agree with the operator On/Off switch (could be the Operator Number, which would turn darker when off). That is something I wished I had many times, while editing.

I also would like this feature added
