DX7 parameter names/values and EFM

cld
Newbie question, playing with my new EFM MK2. How do the DX7 parameters and values relate to the EFM values, is there an easy mapping?
As example, how would i set up a DX7 style operator frequency ratio on the EFM's operators?

No one?

Hello
There is no correlation between DX7 parameters values and the EssenceFM. Some parameters that are common to most FM synths are similar though, for example operator multiplier works the same on both synths.
For frequencies, on the last firmware you have fractional display inside operators. That makes DX7-style frequencies easier to reproduce, for example a ratio of 1.5 is obtained by setting Multiplier to 1 and Quartertones to 12 (since in one octave, there is 24 quartertones)
