I bought one of these off the back of this video. Absolutely love it, it's the mid 90's in a box. It's such an enigma, i feel i could use it everyday for 10 years and still only scratch the surface. The specs are even better than i read, it has 4 lfo's per voice not 2. So many sound design options in there. It feels special every time i use it.
Can you tell me how many sounds the syx file that you share with us has, I opened it with the Yamaha FM7 but only 32 sounds come out, do you know if there are more?
@@wolfgangSvukan Thanks for your information, these sounds are very interesting, I learned that they were used for the soundtrack of Bloodsport 1988, and when you listen to them you realize that they really sound like the music from the movie.
Thanks brother, my Monologue is on it's journey to me. You got my appetite going so strong for this one. I had a big budget but settled on this for many reasons. You confirmed my decision. Beautiful machine, beautiful demo. Thanks again.
I got it a few days ago and I'm totally smitten. I ❤ it so much. Endless in it's limitations, and so beautiful and portable to take anywhere and create. Thank you again!
warning: newbie question: Can anyone tell me how to use SysEx to upload new patches to the SY-22 I have. I've always wanted to do this, but was a bit intimidated. I'd like to take the plunge with this soundset, if I can feel confident I can walk myself through the process. Is there a good "How to SysEx for Dummies" or something on the internet?

When I started playing solo gigs in 1987, this was the recommended unit for my bass sounds. I combined that with a Yamaha PF10 piano, Roland Juno1 synth, Korg Poly61 synth and Yamaha RX15 drum machine; bass/drums powered by a Korg SQD-1 sequencer. I sang atop that. I still own the FB-01 but don't really use it. I pulled it out the other night to record a background track of Eleanor Rigby and it was flawless.
Tom says that if you repeat ''I want an oberheim'' backwards SEVEN times in 7/8 rhythm while standing in front of a mirror, and I quote: ''magical things can happen''.
Yeah, me too. Just listen to the sound of those oscillators and those sweet filters!!!! I've been wanting it for the past 2 years since it first came out and played it several times since then, yet, I still can't afford it. Someday.....someday I WILL be able to afford it and I will BUY IT!!!!
Wow right around 10min is the sound from bjorks human behaviour-listen to 1min mark of that song! Update: Ok did some googling and found its indeed that…the pharaoes jig sound or something like that and MJ also used it in Jam. And possibly Genesis?? Need to check.
