I had to make a dx7 sound like a minimoog for an employer back then. Thus my enmity. If life were fair every shop that sold one would have a Jellinghaus programmer to load up the carts. The interface and capability were far too disparate.
I nominate the Moog Opus 3 and it's spawn.

I sussed the programming (Ishocked one pro keyboard player by making his DX7 sound like a MiniMoog!) but they were noisy. DX5 was much better although I recently sold mine.Doesn't stop the DX7 going into room 101...Norm
