I listened to Hatfield and the North at Rainbow. They were very wonderful and they made my heart a prisoner.

I suspect samples were also used for instrument sounds (in a way similar to the Roland D-50 that was released later) because from what I remember, those keyboards had some incredible synth sounds that I never heard from pure FM synths like the DX7 or the TX-81Z. Examples of such presets : Brass&Chimes, Hawaian Guitar, Calliope (so different from the Roland's one).
Those presets are all there in the PSR-60 pack meatballfulton helpfully linked to. They're definitely not sampled sounds. They're typical 4-op FM sounds. I'd suggest getting DEXED and scour the web for FM patches. I'm not sure if it will load sysex from 4-op synths though.
