YAMAHA MODX6+ 61-KEY SYNTHESIZER KEYBOARD

Yamaha hasa launched the latest model with the new MODX range of compact, lightweight synthesizers. With a complete range of keys range which are MODX6 and MODX7, with 61 and 76 synth-weighted keybeds, and the 88-note MODX8 with Graded Hammer Standard action which is what we are advertising here.

The YAMAHA MODX Sythesizer is a hybrid, mid-priced new addition to their synth range that combines two key technologies, Advanced Wave Memory (AWM2) synthesis and the eight-operator FM engine, FM-X.

The Yamaha MODX range is basically the next Upgrade from Yamaha's MOXF Range of Synthesizers, including an AWM2 synth engine fortified with eight times more waveforms and 128-note stereo polyphony, a new powerful 8-operator FM-X engine with 64-note polyphony, and Motion Control Synthesis for seamless integration and powerful control of both sound engines. Some other major upgrades also include the 4-part Seamless Sound Switching, and it allows for 27 simultaneous effects, an onboard 4-in/10-out audio interface, and 768MB of internal flash memory.

One of the major features is the addition of the Super Knob which allows you to have continual and similar control over multiple parameters such as; the ability to send 10 and return four audio channels plus 16 MIDI channels to/from your computer or iOS device over USB; Live Sets, which allow for Performance organization without copying, renaming, or changing order. Plus there is an A/D input that processes external audio sources through the MODX DSP. What has been added into this keyboard is Yamaha’s Motion Sequences feature which drives synth parameters. Via rhythmic control data, you can intuitively interact with in real time; an Envelope Follower that lets you use internal or external audio as a synth parameter control source; and a Vocoder effect that re-creates the classic voice-synth sound.

That may sound like a lot of tech under the hood, but there’s a lot more to the new Yamaha MODX6, MODX7, and MODX8. Powerful, affordable, and packed with cool modern features and functionality, these new performance synths are perfect for aspiring keyboardists and pro players in need of a high-quality, full-featured, and lightweight synth for stage and studio.

MODX is bundled with Cubase AI, Steinberg's professional music production application that offers integrated recording and editing.
