Very cool! This is really great work! It's awesome that there's been so many synthesiser related topics on Hacker News lately. I did a similar project myself to disassemble, and fully annotate the firmware for the Yamaha DX7: https://github.com/ajxs/yamaha_dx7_rom_disassembly https://github.com/ajxs/yamaha_dx7_rom_disassembly The biggest hint I could give anyone looking to disassemble a synthesiser operating system is to direct your attention towards the code processing individual MIDI messages. The code is invariably is huge mess, however you'll be able to very quickly identify the operating system's core functions, since the corresponding SysEx parameter numbers clearly identify what functionality you're looking at.
