Table of Songs featuring Yamaha TX816
| Artist | Song | Year | Notes | Reference | Media URL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Harold Faltermeyer | Top Gun theme | 1986 | Very early on, I found that the only beauty of a DX7 is when you have two DX7’s. Then the TX816 came along, which had eight DX7’s in it. This was a heavenly instrument because you could slightly change parameters on each voice. You could daisy chain them. I had two of those, so the low bell sounds in Top Gun, for example, are 16 DX7’s. That’s actually a stock sound. It’s a tubular bell, just slightly detuned and tweaked. We had this extreme, fat low C. That’s how the Top Gun anthem starts. | Red Bull Music Academy | YouTube |
| Herbie Hancock | Perfect Machine | 1988 | Synthesizer [Yamaha DX1, DX7, DX7IIFD, Kurzweil K-250, Fairlight Series II And Series III, Roland Super Jupiter, Rhodes Chroma, Oberheim Matrix 12, Yamaha TX 8/16], Sampler [Akai 900-S], Vocoder, Producer – Herbie Hancock | Discogs | YouTube" |
| Ultravox | Revelation (album) | 1993 | "Billy used a lot of his old keyboards on the album, and believes that now is the best time to get the most out of some FM synthesis from a DX or TX rack, and then maybe a bit of Prophet. The aim is to make a 'stack', or a sculpted piece of sound.” | Music Technology 1993 | YouTube |
