The DX7 family remains popular to the present day, as does the innovative FM technology it pioneered. Since the introduction of the DX7, FM synthesis continues to distinguish itself for is its ability to create unique new sounds, rather than emulate existing instruments. The evolution of FM synthesis continues in modern devices, which commonly employ additional synth engines, more waveforms than the DX7's basic sine wave, and advanced filtering.

“Our art is the finest, the noblest, the most suggestive, for it is the synthesis of all the arts. Sculpture, painting, literature, elocution, architecture, and music are its natural tools.
