But make you buy this from only Sweetwater! No where else will you find as good of customer service! Chris Barry helped me out with this purchase too, he even gave me a call to check up on the purchase! Definitely worth the money, thank you Sweetwater!

Overall, amazing little instrument with endless possibilities. I can't even begin on how crazy this little thing is! I am more than satisfied with this purchase. I can't imagine myself buying another keyboard or synth for a long time now! These also work great with midi keyboards. Though, if you have a DC 9V plug in, that will also power it. Very well packaged and secured and even came with batteries. Came fast in the mail, 3 days and it was delivered by UPS. You have almost endless possibilities with this thing! And for as cheap as it is? Now don't let the price fool you, I would've easily paid $300 for one of these! It's about the size of an iPad mini and as versatile as any other synth! And of course, Sweetwater never disappoints. That’s totally impossible, even with… say… 80 sound designers it would mean that each one made 1,000 presets per year.So I was looking for a synth that could give me a large variety of sounds, and the Korg Volca fm Synthesizer does more than that. If we reasonably imagine that on these 640,000 presets 1/4 of them have been created after 1989, it would remain 480,000 presets created during these 6 years, meaning… 80,000 presets per year! The DX7 (including the version II) was sold only since 1983 up to 1989. I even can’t imagine the huge crowd of musicians or sound designers which would be needed to summarize to even MAKE all these 640,000 unique presets during the few years of the real fame of the 6-OP family directly compatible with the original DX7. If I had hired a guy since the 1st January 1983 until today he would have made 48 presets each day, doing nothing else! And including the Sundays, the holidays, etc. If I divide 640,000 by 13,360 I get around 48 presets per day. The difference between these two dates is 13,360 days. Let’s imagine that the sound designers (themselves musicians or not, it’s not the point) began to create presets for the DX7 on the 1st January 1983. I want to add that it is totally impossible that the 640,000 patches are unique patches as claimed by the title so probably also by the guy who made this iOS edition. Jacques (aka BlackWinny, who took part to the beta tests of Dexed and who made the Dexed_Cart). There can’t be any benefit on the activity around a product licensed on GPL v3.
#HOW TO USE DEXED TO SEND DX7 PATCHES TO VOLCA FM FOR FREE#
So, the iOS version of Dexed MUST be open-source, MUST be published with the wholeness of the sources, MUST be provided with a copy of the license GPL v3, and MUST be free, the initial project having been released for free (only the additional services can be billed to the purchaser, so the $3.99 of this iOS edition seems a correct cost covering the usual expenses relative to the hosting on a server without any benefit). There may be fees demanded exclusively for the services related to the distribution, the cost of some services (the rental of servers, the annual cost of a domain, the rental of a repository) to the exclusion of any other fee or of any benefit. One of the points in the license GPL v3 is that a product (and all its derivatives) MUST be open-source, published with the wholeness of the source-code and released for free if the initial project is free.

It means, within other things, that EVERY new project based on that project MUST be made with the same license GPL v3. Dexed has been developed and is distributed on license GPL v3.
