Description

KQ Dixie is a 6-Operator FM synthesizer that is modeled on the synthesizer which appeared on the 1980s. FM synthesizers make sounds with Frequency Modulation. FM brings rich and brilliant sounds which are impossible to create with analog one. It makes very complex waves with simple modulations. The same method is used for radios. The synthesizer gained much popularity in the 1980s. This app lets you make sounds freely with 156 voice parameters. Almost all parameters but multi-timbral, filter, and delay are compatible with DX7. Audio Unit v3 compatible. Multiple-Out is supported when you use "KQ Dixie Multi". Audiobus compatible. Inter-App Audio compatible. 32 algorithms included. You can manage the hardware DX7 when it is connected with external MIDI cables. Supports DX7 System Exclusive Messages (SysEx) and syx files. Supports Zip files. Place Zip files at the app folder instead of extracting them. Supports micro tuning. The app can load Anamark tuning files (TUN). Supports external and virtual MIDI. Supports Volca FM. You may be able to find a lot of patches on the internet. Multi-timbres and Unisons functions are there. Yamaha DX7 is a trademark of Yamaha Corporation. Volca is a trademark of Korg Inc. I have no business relations with Yamaha and Korg.

  • Good App but has some quirks

    Good app, UI is way too beige. it needs a dark mode update desperately, it syncs with hardware some of the time but that depends on the phase of the moon apparently. Sounds awesome and exactly like the volca fm’s / dx7. Good work by a solid dev
  • Worth the Hype!

    Have been hearing about KQ DIXIE from friends and forums since I started using iOS to make music and now I get it. It’s highly usable with no bad presets at all! Lots of power under the hood as well with many parameters to toggle and dial in. Word on the street is the dev is going to be raising the price soon so glad I took the plunge on this very capable FM synth app.

    I started with the fm 2 from audio kit which does sound good but it’s sample based and not fm. Therefore you cannot dump or import sysex. The dexed port for iOS is weak compared to this app so if you don’t know which one to get then get KQ, I also think it’s evil to charge for a free open source port that is weaker than the competition. Anyway I wanted an equivalent to the DX5 ( 2 Dx 7s) and this app lets you stack multiples of itself and use multitimbral modes. I mean what else can I say but outstanding. Fully compatible with sysex easy to import and export. Instead of buying a volca fm 2 I just downloaded the sysex and problem solved I saved $200.

    Embarrassingly bad. Hold is virtually useless. Sounds weak and hallow sounding. Deleted.

    Where is the part where the COSTUMERS get to do stuff? The presets are nice, but whenever you try to edit it sounds awful!
  • Love it so far

    A really accurate and easy to use DX7 emulator. Love the different themes and the layout, sound is excellent. MIDI mapping seems great too.

    Best synth for iPad Perfectly does a DX7, which you can many presets for. Highly recommended!
  • Dependable and Fun App!

    I am a unprofessional keyboardist who uses iOS soft synths exclusively in liveless performances and unkempt-trailerpark work. I am also a sound destroyer and contaminate all my own sounds.... Testing, testing, testing, sound check.
