I'm looking for a completely textual (no even

representation of the DX7 algorithms. I've search the web a bit and
the best I found was one of those ASCII art representations, but I
couldn't get much sense out of them. so does anyone know, or for
their wn convenience have, such an overview of the algorithms?
Attached below is the best I have at the moment. It's C code, out of
the hexter sources, but cleaned up a bit.
Each of the six operators are represented by functions, car() for
carriers and mod() for modulators. The first argument to these
functions is the operator number, here OP_1 to OP_6. The second
argument to these functions is the modulation source, usually either
0, or another operator as a mod() function.
The output of each algorithm is defined as the sum of one to six
carrier functions. Stacks of modulators appear as nested second
arguments.
Each algorithm will also have one function, either car_sfb() or
mod_sfb() -- this is the operator that is the source of feedback.
The destination of the feedback appears as 'feedback' in an
operator's second argument. With only a few exceptions, the source
and destination of feedback will be the same operator.
Also, in some algorithms, one operator serves as modulator to more
than one carrier. In these cases, the output of the modulator is
saved in the temporary variable 'i', which then appears in the second
(modulation) argument of the carrier functions.
Hopefully this is useful to you,
