I wanted a small keyboard to do Rhodes and organ sounds, and I was having a hard time deciding between the reface CP and YC, but after finding your video and the fact that you offer these patches I can get all the sounds I want out of the DX. Thank you. Your synth programming skills are amazing.

I'm trying to get into FM synthesis, and I'm taking piano lessons. This is a good example of the potential that comes with knowledge of sound design and piano proficiency coming together.

PH.D brass and TALK BOX are simply amazing. FM has never sounded more warm or expressive. Than in this man's hands.

All these sounds are so much grander than what you'd expect from a small FM synth like it. Gosh I need to see if I can do this stuff on my Electone HS-6...

It's completely insane how you've managed to get such accurate sounds out of FM synthesis. You've turned the Reface DX into an absolute funk machine. A tutorial, or even just any tiny insight into how you even begin to create sounds like this would be amazing if you feel like doing one. Thanks so much for making these available, and for making my CP redundant.

​@@TomAnsinkVideos Awesome, anything would be cool, even just an over-the-shoulder view while you program and maybe describe what you're doing would be super helpful. There are quite a few good primers/tutorials already on synthesis in general and FM synthesis you could direct people to if you wanted to just do an intermediate/advanced tutorial that doesn't cover the basics. Red Means Recording has a video on sound design that covers the basics of synthesis, and Ben Jordan has one on FM synth that's pretty in depth. Floyd Steinberg has one that explains FM synthesis with a Reface DX. You could link them in description or mention them in the video for people to check out first, then just focus on the advanced aspects of FM that you use. Thanks again!

I've been eyeing the reface CP and YC for a while now and didn't pay much mind to the DX...I think I was expecting like 10 different patches to play the Doogie houser MD theme song....I had no idea how versatile this synth was, may have to check it out...especially because its 100 bucks less than the CP and YC. Awesome playing too BTW. thanks!

The only two people that thumbs this down were the only people salty enough to realize they didn't have a Reface DX - because the patches were TOO DAMN GOOD!!

Beautiful sounds! Out of all the demoes I've heard, your EP patches sound the most-fleshed out, especially given the range of diff EP sounds you make. I have a feeling some of these will make permanent homes on mine. Also, your playing is amazing. That separated bass lines under/over the chords drew some intense emotions. How do you practice? Do you have any resources for somebody who's played instruments, but are just getting into keys?

Damn man!!!! Those organ sounds are juicy. Please keep it up.

Those sounds are really great. I also would like a little tutorial on how to create such sounds. Would be great! 🔥🔥🔥

Damn man, great playing and sounds! Gonna enjoy these

THANKS MAN ! wonderful playing & patches

Wow. These are great! The best I've heard. Thank you!

I found your patches on Soundmondo before finding this. I have you to thank for the DX100 Monobass patch I been trying to get my hands on in DEXED for years 😭 THANK YOU SO MUCCCCHHH!!!

Just want to let you know that these are AWESOME! Fantastic work!

Thx for your sounds, especially the Rhodes / Wurlitzer sounds are excellent! Finally managed to load your presets from soundmondo onto my reface dx, so happy! Thx a lot ❤

Great sounds. Also finally someone who plays a really musical progression on these reface synths !

getting my DX soon in the mail and i'm super psyched to try these sounds, dios mio they sound delicious

These sounds are great. Thank you.

Was on the fence about which Reface to get, if any. Your videos singlehandedly tipped the scales. Great work, thank you!! Will definitely by downloading your patches -- love every single one. Yamaha should hire you... best demo I've seen.

These are gorgeous thank you very much. I'm waiting for my dx in the mail and this is helping ease my worry that I would miss the electric sounds and should have spent another $100 on the cp first. The first two alone are more than enough to quench my thirst for those keys.

This shows right here…. Yeah, the presets on a synth are fine in a lot of cases but, if you know what you’re doing or at least noodle around…. You could make a great sound a $1000 synth would have for a preset with a synth at a fraction of the cost. It also helps that he can play his ass off on the keys. 👍

Extremely accurate fingers to be able play flawlessly on those tiny keys..

Is there a classic piano pad for the dx7 ?

On paper, the DX7II is better because it has more operators and some additional features, but in reality, it's a matter of preference, this keyboard is also much smaller, more portable and is easier to use/program, so personally, I'd prefer the reface DX. Also, if you want more keys you can simply plug in a MIDI keyboard through the provided MIDI cable.

That is good idea,some people asked me how to program sounds. Its a bit hard to explain specially not knowing if someone already understand a bit how a synth works or not.

Beautiful sounds, I don't have a Reface FM, I have its older brother the 4 OP TX81Z, Korg Volca FM and of course, Dexed. The Reface sounds a bit different to the TX, and I don't think its just the patch differences, I'm not sure what the architecture of the Reface is (all I know is its 4 OP), but it sounds like it has more waveforms than the TX, either that or its programmed much better!

@TomAnsinkVideos

Can you change the basic operators to different wave forms on the TX or is it like a DX7 sine wave only until stapling? That is more important than the total amount of operators. That makes it way more versatile and easier to program.
