The only thing I would say about the DX7 is that I could never get a sound that was warm and, no pun intended, "organic" from it. Even "the" Rhodes patch, I found sterile and without soul. And that, for what it was, it was ridiculously heavy!
Warm phat sounds - easy. Make sure that the carrier at the bottom of your algorithm was fixed at subsonic. Results in all manner of warmness. I even programmed "minimoog" lead for someone using that technique.
