Watch A Demo Video Of The Rare Yamaha DX5 In Action

We’ve stumbled across a demo video of the very rare Yamaha DX5, a machine which sits somewhere between the more famous DX1 and DX7 synths.

And we’ve got to say, it sounds fat. The DX5 actually sports dual 6-operator FM synth engines, effectively giving it the power of two DX7s. Yummy.

Yep, that’s FM all right. Watch the very rare Yamaha DX5 in action thanks to a demo video from Youtube user CLASSIC VINTAGE.

In most other facets, this keyboard is basically a more affordable rendition of the DX1, the difference being a lack of heavy wood panelling and ployphonic aftertouch on the keys.

Check it out below. Headphones recommended, obviously.
