You can import sysex files into FM8. But can you somehow export FM8 sounds as sysex?

yes i mean you use dexed for programming and export it to fm7, as i said fm8 is more complex, so this won´t work

Thanks, but alas, I tried Dexed and it does not work. It only recognizes sysex files, not FM8 files.

Hello,

and no, that's not possible, FM8 is more complex, as far as I know, so it won't make sense to convert it that way. But there is dexed, a freeware synth, that should do it.
