Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi guys,

anybody ever tried controlling any of AFM synths from Yamaha (SY77,
SY99, TG77) from BCR2000? While some aspects of the synthesis engine
are really "digital" (like feedback loop - only seven values, with
rather distinctive jumps from 4 to 7), I think some of them would be
quite nice to have under the knobs. I keep attacking FM every now and
then and I really think it would take a great advantage of more
"hands-on" control. Some examples would include controlling the output
levels of operators, as well as parameters of envelope generators;
maybe tuning the operators, or even selecting their waveshapes. Of
course it can be done only thru SysEx.

Yes, I've heard about NI FM7 and FM8 :-) But I still prefer hardware...

Anyway, any feedback on this would be interesting, I hope not only for me.

(I was also thinking about controlling Korg Wavestation, but apart
from using two knobs for joystick movements I cannot come up with any
other ideas. I find the patch architecture of WS highly cumbersome -
while the sound is very convincing, the way of organizing the stuff
make it the Rube Goldberg machine of all synths *ever*.)

Regards,
