LucyTuning Tables for DX7 Mk II, The YAMS.

This table is for LucyTuning the Yamaha DX7 MkII & SY series in YAMS.
If A1 is 3754 on equal temperament C1 equal temperament = {3754 - [900 x (1024/1200)]} = 2986.

All codes should be (2998 - 2986) = 12 pitch units flatter if C equal temperament is used as the reference pitch.

N.B. Any note is sharpened or flattened by the addition or subtraction of 68.451 cents i.e. 68.451 x (1024/1200) = 58 pitch units.

There are 1024 pitch units (called YAMS) in one octave which equals 1200 cents.
Therefore one cent is the equivalent of 1024/1200 pitch units, and each YAM = 1200/1024 = 1.171875 cents.

This keyboard has five octaves from C to C. It may be tuned from C-2 to G8.
Using A as the reference point and setting all black keys as the appropriate sharp or flat the settings should be as follows:

(Based upon A3=440 Hertz coded 5802)
