Since the DX7 voice bank traffic seems to be hotting up, I thought I'd
throw in some banks I discovered lying about on one of my accounts here.
They are all (to my knowledge) public domain - 8 are banks of voices originally
posted by Solange Karsenty, one is a few voices from magazines, one is some
voices from Howard Massey's DX7 book, and one is a set of voices which were
bundled with the Steinberg Pro24 sequencer (and not, to my knowledge,
copyrighted).
This is an "ar" archive of the files, each of which I've put through
"compress" and "uuencode". Once unscrambled, each is a 4096 byte binary in
the DX7 compressed voice format.
I've posted bits of software to illustrate the MIDI SysEx format the DX7
uses, and the voice packing algorithm. I'm afraid the software is written
in a variety of languages, and I've been told the C stuff (which I've not
actually tried to compile or use) doesn't work properly. My intention in
posting was just to illustrate the algorithms and data formats, rather than
provide polished programs, so some work will be necessary, depending on your
actual machine/language/MIDI interface. Sorry, but that's all I can do...
Dearchive, uudecode, uncompress, download, play, have fun...
Nick.
---CUT---
I've already done the unarchiving, uudecoding and decompression. Just send
them to the synth.
