I friend of me has an original Yamaha DX 7 Synth. The board sounds
really great but it is extremely difficult to program. There were some
commercial programs for Atari to program the synth with a GUI in the
late 80ies, but they dont't run on x86. Is there any free software for
Linux available?
JSynthLib includes a DX/TX editor:

Or you can try running some of that Atari software on Xsteem:

See this link for the freeware Atari MIDI stuff:

In my experience Xsteem does a pretty good job with MIDI apps. Your
mileage may vary. Personally I prefer JSynthLib, it's a fine utility,
works very well with my TX802 and my K4r.
HTH.
