| Notes | The SY77 is a hybrid synthesizer that combines AWM and FM synthesis for vast sound scupting capabilities. Yamaha refers to the FM synthesis as AFM, meaning Advanced Frequency Modulation. The "advanced" part comes from the availability of 16 extra oscillator waveforms and 45 different algorithms.
It has a 16-track, 1-song sequencer.
The screen's backlight will commonly burn out, making the screen harder to read in dim light (but still functional). It is fairly easy to find an aftermarket replacement.
The SY77 is available in rackmount form as the Yamaha TG77.
