1985-86 Yamaha DX1 frequency modulation digital synthesizer with memory 64 patches and 64 available performance patches, 16/32 voices. The Yamaha DX1 is a Bi-Timbral synth and with early basic MIDI in through out, and this synthesizer also comes with two RAM and one ROM memory cartridges. Dual FM 6 operator engines with 73 weighted and balanced wood keys, with polyphonic aftertouch and velocity. This vintage Yamaha DX1 is in very good cosmetic condition to be completely honest and accurate, with no broken or chipped keys and no broken or missing controls or sliders. This classic vintage mid 80's Yamaha DX 1 digital FM synth works perfect and is in very nice condition on the inside, and it has no dead keys at all, and no missing voices as far as I can hear. This Yamaha DX1 comes with a custom made heavy duty Anvil flight case with very nice foam still, service manual and power cord. I bought this Yamaha DX1 about two years back, and this synth came from a church in Minnesota where it was being used by the church organist. I drove over 8 hours in my SUV to buy and pick up this HTF rare Yamaha DX1 synth in person instead of having it shipped, and it has not been commercially shipped since then. The Yamaha DX1 was the very rare flagship top of the line of the Yamaha DX series of FM digital synth's from Yamaha Japan, and the heaviest DX synth at 190 lbs. The legendary Yamaha DX1 FM synth had all the bells and whistles in Yamaha's 1980's DX line of FM digital synths, and the best user interface with the most displays, lcd's and meters, etc. of any of their DX line of FM digital synths, which included the much more lower priced and very common entry level, but revolutionary Yamaha DX7 FM digital synth from the 1983. Only 140 or so of the Yamaha DX1 synth's reportedly were ever manufactured by Yamaha, as the scaled down and again lower priced Yamaha DX5 was the more affordable successor to the DX1. Extra bubble wrap and or soft foam will be placed over the controls and keybeds inside the case, and plastic ties will be attached to the latches at shipping location for extra security before shipping. I also have a shipping company called Craters & Freighters in town, that does commercial shipping of larger parcels such as this. The Craters and Freighters company can custom build a heavy duty wood crate with custom molded foam, for the Anvil case and DX 1 synth and also do the shipping of this large parcel. Buyer can work with Craters and Freighters direct and finalize cost and details of the s&h for this DX 1 synth. I will have a couple of my employess assist me in taking the DX 1 synth in its Anvil case to the local C&F shipping company dock, their # is 1 800 833-4219, and the web is cratersandfreighters.com
