I wrote a basic editor for the pd feature I wrote for sound on sound, you can adapt it fairly easily as long as you have your midi implentation guide (which cc number controls what).
This one just does cc numbers, pd does support sysex as well though i think.

There are free editors for the dx7 online, my friend uses one with a TX7.

Did you ever post a link to your Pd article on the list? I'd very much like to read it!

here you are:
http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/aug06/articles/puredata_0806.htm
this one includes a bit of a grammatical nasty in the first sentence... (is instead of are)... the editor put it in, I'm actually a very good writer ;-)
all the best

Nice one.
On the OP - I used to have an emagic program called SoundDiver and another called X-OR back in the days when I had stacks of modules. It would probably be easy enough to get a copy and interrogate it (maybe looking at the code for the plugins) to get ahold of all the system exclusive numbers you'd need for making synth editors. Easier than working from the sysex specs at the back of manuals anyway.
Unfortunately there's nothing "universal" about the parameters for sysex values :(
Hey Adam, do you think SOS might take an article from me sometime this year? I'll be wanting to give my synthetic sound design work a bit of a push in the jourmals and magazines at some point. Who's the ed to talk to?
Cheers, Andy

I am still mad at Apple that they abandoned SoundDiver, I invested quite some money in Emagic stuff for my studiorig and it is still working but deadend now. This was one of the events which brought me to Linux and opensource software in general. So go for the synth editor, I have the same in mind. The SoundDiver adaptions might be good for reverse engineering and I think the simpler ones should be rather easy to translate to pd, but SoundDiver had some neat special editors for complex synths like Waldorf Microwave or Kawai K5 / 5000 synths which would be harder to recreate.
Cheers,
Malte
Let me know when I can edit my TX81z with pd
