As to why I use the YM2612 so often, well, I compose(d) music for several MD projects, and I do some research every now and then.

Vielleicht wir können weiter sprechen?
I meant you won't get the right sound from a 6-op DX7 patch if you convert it to 4-op because it's missing two operators. I also own a DX7 (and a TX7)MintyTheCat wrote:An Operator can be used or not. It's entirely up to the Musician what he does with each Operator. However, having more Operators gives the Musician the Potential to create more sonically rich Sounds. With FM one must be very very careful as it is very easy to create clangy Noise As such, start with a couple of Operators and a simple Algorithm - such as an Algorithm with a single Element of Feedback and then start to alter the Parameters - over Time the Musician can find a Sound that they like.foobat wrote:What do you do with the 2 extra operators?

I own a DX7 myself - it has a fantastic Sound but it's a Bitch to program manually - you need Software for sure as that 2*16 LCD is a hassle.

Indeed - your Statement was open to interpretation.
