Yamaha DX7 vs MODX: Can the MODX Recreate These Iconic Sounds?
No talking — just pure DX7 sound!
This is a direct comparison of Yamaha DX7 presets played on both the original DX7 and the modern MODX.
In this video, I compare the iconic sounds of the original Yamaha DX7 with the Yamaha MODX, using the exact same DX7 patch bank loaded into the MODX. This is a direct sound comparison to see how closely the MODX can replicate the character of the original DX7.
These sounds aren’t included by default, but I found a DX7 MkII sound bank online and converted it for use on the MODX using Yamaha’s free conversion tool
https://shop.usa.yamaha.com/en/fmconv...
There’s also an official free DX7 expansion for the MODX that you can download directly from Yamaha, but for this video, I went with the MKI and MkII sound banks
➡️ All volume levels have been normalized in Logic Pro to ensure a fair comparison.
Both the DX7 and MODX were recorded in mono through my Universal Audio Apollo Twin,
🎹 The Full Tines and E. Piano patches include a touch of chorus and reverb
🎧 All other sounds are played dry, with no added effects.
Let me know in the comments which version you prefer!
