The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

While we're on the subject of FM those of you who are into VSTi's may 
want to check out the demo of FMHeaven from ces:

http://www.cferrari.dial.pipex.com/

It's cross platform, i.e., Mac & Win versions, and unless I'm mistaken  
you can import DX7 format voices. Plenty of those to be had on the 'net 
;-) I haven't tried FMHeaven first hand (yet) but I've been enjoying 
his freeware cesSynth3 the past couple of days. 

regards,

Jon
