You are bidding on a very nice Yamaha DX100.

Cosmetically I would say it is in more or less excellent condition - it just has some typical minor scuffs and scratches. Functionally it appears to work
100% perfectly, with no sticky keys or buttons. The sound is crisp and clear as it should be.

The DX100 is a small and portable DX synthesizer from Yamaha. Like all DX's it uses (FM) Frequency Modulation synthesis. It's not the easiest form of synthesis to program but can result in some excellent sounds. The DX100 is not as flexible nor powerful as a DX7, but it does have some cool sounds. It is most renowned for its great analog bass sound (Patch #01) that is awesome for techno, house, jungle, and acid music styles; it's very gritty, the bass tone with gristle!

The DX-100 has mini-keys and 49 of them in all. Small pitch and mod wheels in the upper left and guitar strap pegs make this synth usable for live use if you're feeling whimsical (read: Keytar Time!). If you mess around with the settings on Parameter 13, even if you don't know anything about FM, you can get some seriously twisted sounds out of it. If you're willing to spend a little time with it, it has a lot more potential than just that one bass sound. It is used by Orbital, Scanner, Jean-Michel Jarre, Autechre, Laurent Garnier, and countless other house and dance artists.

If you're familiar with Roger Troutman and his famed talkbox technique, you'll know that the DX100 is the actual synthesizer used for this setup. Yes, the DX100 has a breath controller input!

There is no reserve so any bid can win this.
