“Yamaha tx81z FM Rack Synthesizer with X81pg programmer — In good condition! 100% functional! Some buttons on tx81z are a little sticky(due to age) but work fine. The left rack ear on the tx81z is bent a little but does not prevent easy racking and definitely does not effect functionality.
This tx81z comes with the X81pg programmer and US power supply.
The X81pg makes the tx81z one of most easiest programmable FM synths out there. It is a joy!
The tx81z sounds fantastic! These older FM synths have some grit and gusto that the newer ones miss.”

“Item has been heavily used. Some keys don’t work, missing a few knobs, the sliders are noisy, there’s a weird poly-synth function that switches on. Screws are missing. Long Story Short it needs a tune up. It does power up and play with most functions intact. Amazing analog growl. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“This was working Perfectly until a couple of days ago. If you look at pictures 6,7,8, you can see the culprit. It looks like something has burned out on the mains input circuit board, its probably not called that, sorry i dont know much about these things. Im certain this is an easy fix for somone in the know. The Synth is in worn condition but everything worked perfectly up until it decided to catch fire. Well it did smell like that !! There is no case with the DX7 so it is COLLECTION ONLY sorry about that !!!! ”

The cover on the function keys is cracked in four places but the keys beneath do themselves work. In both cases see the photos I have included of these defects. There are also a number of small scuffs and scratches of a cosmetic nature”

“I am selling a Yamaha DX100 Keyboard Synthesizer. This synthesizer has been tested and the only thing I have to report is: there are 2 knobs missing volume and data entry, but this does not affect use and the output jack does not function 100%, headphone jack works fine/ Keys are a little crusty, but they do work, and it clears up the more you play it. Therefore I am selling this unit as is. ”

“You are viewing Vintage YAMAHA SY 22 synthesize with Dynamic Vector Synthesis. Please note this is not my subject but I have had the key board working through the headphone jack. I have not played through the Midi Out no Midi system. As far as I can tell all the functions work but I could not get the pitch bend to work. All the keys work but two have minor damage to the front face. The transformer is missing replacement can be obtained on ebay. The back of the key board is scratched and screws missing hence low starting price and no reserve.”

“This listing is for one Yamaha TX81Z. I bought it in 1990 from a fiend who was the original owner and it has had minimal use and movement since then. I have thoroughly tested and assessed it. My description is accurate and I’m selling it as is with no returns. The two flaws that I found do not affect the performance of the unit at all. At some point the power cord was nicked a few inches in from the plug and the outer jacket had a small breach. The inner wires have their own jackets and they were completely intact. I covered the spot with electrical tape and checked for any shorting or noise by bending the cord in every direction at that spot and it is totally sound.. The other issue is that there is a slight hum coming from the unit itself when powered up but it does not come through or affect the audio outputs at all. ”

“Here’s a YAMAHA TX-216 synthesizer.
TX216: one of the most powerful FM synthesizers ever made. The unit is in perfect working order and all 4 modules are loaded with some excellent custom patches, though you can of course switch up the patches with any that were made for a DX7.”
