The DX7II-FD is an updated version of the classic DX7. It is slightly smaller, better buttons, larger sliders, updated 16-bit digital circuitry, patch memory was doubled to 64 voices, enhanced MIDI support, micro-tuning capabilities, aftertouch controlled pitch bending, multiple LFOs, bi-timbrality and keyboard split and layering capabilities.
The F in " DX7II-FD" stands for the Floppy Disk Drive. Unfortunately, the Floppy Disk Drive is not working in this unit. This does not affect the use or sounds of the DX7II-FD at all. They only difference between the DX7II-D and DX7-IIFD is the floppy disk drive. Essentially making this unit a DX7II-D.

Condition:
- This is a used item.
- This unit is physically in good condition! It shows some general small scuffs, nicks and scratches. Nothing major and it still overall a nice piece. Please see photos for further details.
- This unit has one fault, this is that the floppy disk drive does not work. You do not need it to use the unit, so it does not affect the use, functions or sounds of the DX7II-FD. Basically making it just a DX7-IID. A synth savvy person could replace it with either a compatible FDD or even a a more modern replacement such as a USB Floppy Disk Drive Emulator.
- This DX7 has had a minor service. This included installing a new memory battery and replacing the tact switches. It is now a pleasure to use!
- Please be aware this unit is 100V. This means it MUST be used with a step-down transformer, not a travel adaptor. If you are unsure about this please let us know. We have some great, compatible step-downs for sale HERE. They are designed in Australia for use in Australia and can be run 24/7.
- If you purchase from outside Australia you may need a step-down transformer to use this unit. Please contact us if you need any help sourcing the correct product.
