Very, very, very true. And as I understand it, a big part of why the DX7 was ultimately mostly known for the presets...very few folks took the plunge.

Was there ever a programmer/editor for the DX7? Similar to the old PG-300 for the Roland Juno/MKS synths. I vaguely recall such a thing existed, but can't be sure...
