That little run from 15:55 to 16:00 was beautiful

I've had dexed for a long time i normally just use the patches as they are,you have influenced me to play around with it more and the create your own cart tip is spot on i love it thank you.

Ive been trying so hard to understand dexed and there’s so much i’ve learned here. I actually understand how to create and modify sounds and my mind is blown by how many possibilities can be created with this. Thank you so much for the tutorial!

Just acquired a DX7 mk1. You have just opened that machine right up for me with this tutorial. Thank you so much

Hi John, Thank you for another great Tuesday TIPS Video, I really look forward to them, also a big thank you for giving us the link to all those sound banks ,that was really awesome thank you for sharing it. I have to be honest and tell you I had never heard of DEXED (opps, I Know!) but you talked about it a while ago in one of your live streams, so I got it, then I got Unify and started using DEXED all down to you John. Thanks again for everything. Take care. See you on Saturdays Live Stream. Dave G..

Thank you so much...as a teenager of the 80's...to actually now grab a bit of software like this...and create the same sounds as those from the big rock ballads all those years ago...it just blows me away! Just trying out one of the Electric pianos with a bunch of reverb..it is incredible! Thank you!

Wow, you really simplified dexed for me. Going to play around the rest of the day. Unify looks like a good option for beginners like me, thank you! 😅

Thank you so much! You explain dexed and fm in such an intuitive way, and this has cleared up a lot for me!

Thanks man! I've used dexed for many years but never tackled the daunting UI. You're the man!

WOW! The best "start-right-now" video tutorial about DeXed!!! Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!

Those melodies you’re making are freakin amazing.

What a great inspiring and teaching video... It was exactly my thoughts when i launched dexed for the first time... How many knobs dude... As always thx for your work, I hope to see you for a long time doing these teaching videos...

This is incredible, exactly the sound I'm looking for. I just downloaded Dexed last night and am trying to wrap my head around it. This video helps a lot.

Great tutorial. Well explained. Although I initially looking how to use the library functions, I got some tips. Thanks!

Wow, I've only just got Dexed and it's an incredibly powerful tool. Thanks for the walk around, Give us some more...

Your 'Tues-Tips' are TOPS! Thank you for posting - a good insight into Dexed - it's just a pity you can not keep the Dexed Engine Resolution set at Modern (24-bit) by default. (Thanks for creating Unify) 👍

Fantastic explanation! I learned a lot here! Thank you for your generosity!!!

The last couple of days I've gone from..."I'll get a synth for playing around" to "I'm going to be a FM Synth guy using DEXED"

So many amazing sounds.

wow!! I just found this channel, and I feel that I have found a treasure of information!!

wow what sounds, i cant dream of creating, thanks for your time

Tuesday Tips has become essential viewing and not just for Unify owners but, as in this case, to get the best out of the other included virtual instruments. Like others here I have had Dexed for ages and used the presets but this is a really handy tutorial on how to tweak it to make your own. When things get back to normal and someone asks "What kept you going through all of this?" I am pretty sure that "looking forward to Tuesday Tips" will be on the list 👍😎 Huge thanks SkipPy! (by the way where did the "SkipPy" moniker come from and why is it written that way?)

this is a really amazing tutorial, thanks very much! Subscribed!.

Just the ability to stack Dexed patches alone makes Unify an absolute bargain. And that's just a small percentage of what it can do. A million thumbs up from me!

Thanks for this tutorial! The UI design is confusing but the sounds are phenomenal.

this honestly very informative

Thank you very much, Sir. Informative !! 😊😊

I just click on the 'like' button as soon as I get to your videos now Skip because it's never in any doubt that I'm going to enjoy it

This Unify program looks pretty cool. Definitely something useful to combine various VSTs. As for Dexed it is very cool VST and also utility for DX7 users but also all compatible gear like Volca FM and others.

Thank you for all your videos .great tutorial.

Beautifully explained thank you.

I've had this VST sitting around on my computer for ages and have just never really done anything with it. I'm also a fairly crap keyboard player so maybe I can improve my playing and my understanding of this synth together. Thanks for the video :)

Works perfect with my TX802

AWESOME VIDEO... Thanks alot!

John I am producing synthwave as a hobby... But I'm not that good in creating patches... I would like to throw some money at you for retro-futuristic patches... Much appreciation for your videos with this much value

I appreciate the kind words - you should check out Retrosphere V1 if you have Omnisphere. Kamoji if you own Serum or FuturX if you own Spire. If you own Unify, particular-sound has an incredible patch set called Synth Motions for retro Synthwave (bit.ly/3aXKqOS). We're working on a very cool library modern SynthWavefor later this year. Cheers!

fm = life

I'm a fan of the 4op sounds (DX100 or DX27 etc) Also it's always worth tweaking patches, even just move knobs a tiny amount, you'll be surprised how much more alive patches can become.

so helpful!

You explaining each module and what it does really sparked an interest. How would you recommend someone get into synths and learning? I'm barely learning basic chords but I definitely would love to get into making my own sounds

blown away at the sounds after grabbing this synth HOWEVER the 'show dir' doesn't open a file explorer, only able to launch file explorer via 'load' (windows 64 bit using reaper) (&&& functions as expected in standalone mode, outside of DAW) ... any way, totally would recommend, super happy with the synth. and kinda worried about infinite bliss while browsing the 3k patches in the 'DX7 All The Web' ... also 17:01 totally reminds me of Rhye's opening for "Phoenix"

Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I now know how to actually play this thing! One Dexed question if you know it: Is there a way to get portamento? In mono mode, the synth is really begging for it. I've read the DX7 had portamento, but I can't seem to find a setting for it anywhere in Dexed.

Thanks !

I Love you for this Video

thanks man

you Rock too bro!! tks!!

One thing I don't think was mentioned is that all of DEXED patches can be used by the original hardware DX7. It is almost like a library editor for the original hardware in that respect.

What if I can't buy unify? Is there other free plugin to control the waves? I'm using mixcraft daw

This was unbelievably helpful. I must say I would have appreciated it if you had taken a few extra minutes to explain and demonstrate each of the different parameters. Of course I can play around with the knobs myself but knowing exactly what each one is doing from a technical sense (which you seem to have knowledge of) would have been very helpful. But great video, thanks so much.

Is there a good plugin to give the dexed the "warmth" of the old hardware yamaha?

do you know if it is possible to use the dexed as a sound editor for the yamaha tx7? Thanks in advance

I was hoping this would send the patches to my dx7. I can only get sounds from the cartridges,but i only have number 3 and 4. What should i do?

Could any kind soul please help me with a question? Is it possible to select the default folder when you want to save and load a preset? When I press "save" it takes me to a certain folder and when I press "load" it takes me to a completely different one. I tried loading a patch to see if it saved the path and opened that folder straight away the next time I loaded something, but it still takes me to the same initial default folder😮‍💨

very well

@PlugInGuruVideo

3 жыл бұрын

Lower Left there is a knob above the wording "MIDDLE C". That will change the reference note - make it C2 or C1 to play lower notes, C4 or C5 to play higher notes and be in the right key (you have 5 octaves range).

Can you use dexed with any keyboard? Because I am using a Yamaha PSR e213 and it doesn't make sound from dexed when I press on the keyboard and I don't have a dx7 IN option for some reason Update: It works when I press the keyboard and dexed plays a sound but it doesn't play it in time every time when I press a key on my keyboard

This is an interesting plugin but my interest in it is layered DX sounds. I can load up two or more instances of Dexed in my DAW, so I'm thinking why should I get Unify? Maybe someone who understands the Unify concept could explain. :) Also, have I understood correctly: Unify can load VST2 plugins? Because that would solve the problem with Cubase 12 not supporting VST2 plugins anymore.

When the sustain keeps going for me I'll change the preset to fix it like u said, but sometimes It'll keep playin the same note and sound even on the new preset

Even when the new patch is in the "Current Cart"?

@PlugInGuruVideo

There is - Next to each of the 6 OSC "LEVEL" knob is a knob named "Key Vel" which is the sensitivity to velocity. Make sure you look at the Algorithm because the Key Vel knob controls volume on the operators that show up at the bottom row, but any row above they control the sound going from dark to bright timbre by velocity. Hope this helps.

Dexed is a plug-in and I don't believe it comes with a standalone version. You need to use Reaper or your DAW of choice, or our own Unify multi-plugin playground that comes as both plugin and standalone. If it doesn't fit your screen you need to increase the resolution of your monitor. Dexed doesn't have any screen resize options.
