I m sorry, but you got it all wrong. The oscillators are simply a single chip digital 8-channel tone generator (MSM5232RS in the service manual). It was used

actually that is incorrect, up is LFO to VCF and down is LFO to VCO, right and left are pitch bend. actually, you re wrong too. up is lfo to DCO, not VCO.

the pitch bend of the joystick is only affected by the slider that says bend next to it. The VCF and VCO settings are program dependent. I guess I lucked out,

Th DX7 is, of course, a digital synth, so it is easier for them to implement in the design. The 800 is analog controlled by digital, and a strange 7bit?
