Introduction

The

involves

the

modulation

the

signal

from

oscillator.

the

DX7

II,

oscillators

are

known

operators.

Those

operators

which

actually

produce

audio

output

are

called

carriers.

Operators

which

modulate

the

frequency

other

operators

are

called

modulators.

The

overall

sound

which

results

from

combining

carriers

and

modulators

depends

factors,

including

the

Another

important

factor

carrier

(which

affects

the

volume

sound)

and

each

(which

affects

the

sound).

The

DX7

incorporates

two

sound

modules,

each

consisting

six

operators.

The

operators

sound

module

can

combined

into

different

configurations

and

modulators.

These

configurations,

known

algorithms,
