How to get rich, lush piano sound on Yamaha DX7

- In this video I cover how to get a rich, lush piano sound on the Yamaha DX7 that sounds straight out of the 80's using VST's like Dexed, TAL-UNO-LX, Gem Mod, Syntorus 2, Valhalla Vintage Verb, Verb Suite Classics, Tal Reverb 4, Softube Tape, Echoboy, la2a and 1176 compression.

Your videos are cool and well explained but you may be the only one musical producer on CZcams that teaches using free plugins. I can't thank you enough for that. 👍👍
I normally use slate but also want to show that free stuff is still great and that I use it too.
I also highly recommend SQ8L which, like Dexed, is a freeware, complete reverse-engineered synth with a beautiful 80s sound. In SQ8L's case it is the Ensoniq SQ80. It is a wavetable synth, quite tricky learn though :) (but not as difficult as Dexed or FM synthesis in general)
As a kid from the 80s I love the way how you explain all the Prozess of producing that 80s style. Please don’t stop❤
I luv all these 80s tutorials you're sharing over here on YT Eliana!!! :)
Thanks glad to hear!
please dont stop these, they are so helpful!
Could you do a tutorial on getting that funky lead in the track you played at the beginning? I love it.
Soon.
The knowledge you impart in your videos is excellent for all us home studio musicians wanting to create music with a DAW and virtual instruments. Thank you so much for all the work you put into your videos !

amazing, just discovered your channel half an hour ago, love how in depth everything here is, i've always wanted tutorials like this. i've used VSTs like Dexed and OBx-d for years, but never really felt satifisfied with anything i'd made with them. never knew the fundamentals of compression/EQ on sounds like the e.piano etc. great channel, will definitely recommend this to some pals
It's because of you my 80's style production really went to the next level. Thank you so much for in depth video's like this one.
Gotta appreciate the effort in providing resources with the information to utilize them, genuinely helpful stuff
This channel is a fucking gem.
I am enjoying and getting so much out of these 80s early 90s videos you are making. Keep up the good work sister!
Best on CZcams. Chill and easy going .
I've appreciated several of your videos. I'm not creating music specifically in those styles but still find them fun and educational.
been using dexed a year... really good sound
Thank you for the vídeo.
The demo song, wow.
Great sounds. All of them...
Great video! I would also add, most VST synths have a lot of DX7 piano presets, so people may already have these they can fool around with. Also, for a slightly bigger sound that is 80's-inspired, you can layer DX7 pianos with pads or similar sounds to make it extra dreamy.
This was a great, easy to follow video. I'd love to see something similar on how to create those 80s lead sounds
Great video Eliana. Some top advice and directions. Thank you.
I'm now in love
This is a great channel ! makes me understand 80's music so much more do you consider ever doing guitar oriented 80's tutorials ? thanks and great work !
After 35 years still love that sound
Amazing video as always, thank you for sharing your knowledge 💜
I've been looking for this thanks a bunch
Love your 80s videos 👌👌👌
Great 80s Sound Videos ( thank you ) please More Stuff 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love it! Found an incredible chorus plug-in ❤❤
your channel is very inspiring, specially now that I decided to go back to composing. Nice t shirt btw!
Lush piano indeed. I like that you give concrete examples on actual values to use as plug-in params.
Fantastic work again. Thank you for VST link!
Absolute lush analog DW8000 style flavor
Thank you, Eliana.
Love Thundercat, nice shirt!!
that was interesting! well done 🎹
I been looking for that SOUND!~!!!!!!
You are my favorite on CZcams right now for many reasons
Dude, you’re a godsend. I’ve been listening to so much YMO and I’ve been itching to emulate them. Thank you!!
loved the video. Also that is one sick Thundercat shirt right there.
you the one Eliana
I swear it's like whatever I'm looking for, you just make a video tutorial on -- so handy! Thanks again Eliana, you're a legend!
I enjoyed the video. The notes on the chorus type and all others chain settings are priceless!
Excellent video! ✌️😁 Absolutely love the sounds of a DX7
I feel like these tips would also work well for any lead synth sound, especially a supersaw.
Let me add that Dexed is not just free but also open-source!
That website is a good recommendation, thanks.
Great video! easily explained and fun to watch. One of my favorite production channels in the moment.
I just found this Chanel and it’s awesome. I love these new videos explaining these sounds in depth. Keep them coming please
Loving your sound sister
Love all your videos!
Personally I would place delay before reverb, but of course it can work after too :)
All a matter of choice. Before makes delay more prominent. After more smootb
So cool sounds! Love 80's Disco, and Nu-Disco, Deep Nu-Disco, which I believe the new albums that are reminiscent of 70's-80's? I like to listen on Digitally Imported radio, time to time...
Damn, that studio looks so neat.
These vids are befok! Keep on going misses
If you have the money to spend, the Arturia DX7 soft synth is very very good and quite easy to maneuver around. I would recommend buying the V collection when its on a big discount as opposed to buying the DX7 soft synth from them with no sales ongoing, though.
I have the Arturia suite and had used the DX7 for some time, and only recently did I realise that you can load the .SYX patches I had previously downloaded for Dexed.
I work in retail so sadly broke haha
@@ElianaDAngelo yeah, I understand. I only recommend it because its very good and if you can get the V collection on sale you can get a ton of old synths for like 200 dollars and I think its one of the better deals out there when its on sale, many of which are also great for old 80s music (Prophet 5 and Juno 6 are perfect for 80s music). Just something to keep in mind for the future! Thanks for the video!
I had the DX7 for 12 years and Dexed is the only one that sounds 90% close to a DX7 mkI. The others are modern recreations
@@CR-sj7xd As far as I know Dexed is a complete reverse engineered DX7 algorithm. Even DX7s original presets are compatible.
Another great tutorial 🔥🔥 Thank you ❤❤
I'm snagging a reface dx because i like limitations plus im broke. your videos have really helped with production and composition so thaaaanks :)
So glad to see your videos popping up again 💕
A lot of people who've never used a dx7 don't know how dry it was. Most of those dx7 classic sounds have a lot more going on.
Please continue this cool vibe you got going.. Also, I dunno what you mean by higher quality videos..hmm.. It looks good as it is. Peace- Sam
One of the best channels that I've subscribed....keep posting more
I like the way you explain things, in much better detail especially in the smaller points. Also quick question :
I often have trouble with volume not matching on finished tracks , do you have any advice on quick and dirty ways of mastering your own stuff ? Would love to see how you think about things like that . Keep up the good work
That should be a future video
Eliana, admit it: You mixed all the Debarge songs and you own a time machine! Great video.
You got me, I did.
Great video!
I like Your voice. Great content. 👍
❤️I love your videos!
Have you the finished track in the video, sounds brilliant. Too good not to be a full track.
Enjoying the videos and very inspirational.
Dexxed has been around a while and does a good job of emulating the DX sound. If you actually have some DX7 or other DX synth patches I beleive you can import those as well
I did it at some point a few times. Yes there are some sites to download the factory patches I am sure
These days I just fart around with Vital and in my humble opinion betters the DX sound
As an old dude I liked the 4 operator FM synths the TX81 module was cool
I just use my mk1 dx7, chose the chorus-reverb preset on my Boss se 50 rack multi FX, ( Boss is known for they're good choruses ) turn down the whet/dry mix on my mixer a bit, dial in the highs on my mixer a little, and hey presto!, ( use a real dx7 preferably a mk1, they sound best, far better than dexed, I use both)
Another great video from Eliana-sensei 🥳
really good!
Great content !
Nice tips and I shared you around.
That lovely sound makes me _tingle_ ----- I'm talkin' about your _voice_ dear ;)
Just subscribed a few days ago, this is another helpful video. Do you have a tutorial on how to create that lead sound that’s on this beat? Or which vst it’s from? Thank you.
I love your videos. Going to give dexed a try.
These sound design vids are great!
Dexed is great but I want to give a shout out to Plogue OPS7. For chorus Oblivion Sound Lab is my choice, and then of course Valhalla VintageVerb.
Great video thanks very helpful 🤠
Very cool video! For me, one of the best free chorus plugins is Blue Cat Audio's plugin suite. It's cmopletely free, and I use the chorus from that suite on almos everything I need chorus.
Beautiful sounds!
Cool nickname. Got me curious to check out your channel.
@@persona83 please do! I do what it says! And sometimes, I sell them as well. czcams.com/video/VF2_uSlvapw/video.html
Incroyableee
Thanks! Your music is super funky btw. 😎😎😎
Totally love it
Love u and this
Awesome. Thanks!!
thank you this is great.
I love your videos 💯
Do you have the all version of the intro amazing!!
Your Demand is my imperative
Genia! Hi from Argentina! I can't seem to understand how the release works on Dexed as there are no ADSR knobs...could you help me please? Thanks!
Very cool! :)
Everytime I watch one of these videos I come in to learn one thing, and then learn 5 things instead.
u da best
I am definitely working, “Meet my demands” into regular conversation.
Where can I find the song from the intro??
super sonic wisdom
hell yea lady
Pro tip for the best possible sound with the DX7 - inject estradiol intramuscularly, take bicalutamide regularly, and six months in begin to take progesterone
No progesterone for me so far.
@@ElianaDAngelo crossing fingers you manage to get prescription for some in not too long from now! (if you want)
Why tho
I subscribed...
Great video.
Are you adding that noise to your mic?
I could do without it.
Interferience that I am having trouble finding. The rode wireless mics seem quite succeptible to it
Would be great to hear the actual sound....
