Yamaha DX7
The bestselling synthesizer from Japan!
Everyone loves the 1980s. The films, the fashion and of course, the music.
The Yamaha DX7 synthesizer was the foundation of that music. John Chowning's groundbreaking digital technology broke the mold of synthesis to introduce a whole new sound, FM (frequency modulation) synthesis. It emulated a whole range of instruments, including its famous electric bass and piano presets!
Selling over 200,000 units, it remains one of the best selling synthesizers of all time. It was a favourite instrument on the records of the top artists of the 1980s, including Kenny Loggins, Luther Vandross, A-ha, Phil Collins and Whitney Houston.
Now you can build a LEGO version of this synthesizer! Get your 80s on and turn on the radio for some retro tunes!
