    20:26 Lots more new sounds...
    Offering sublime soundscapes within compact, lightweight designs, the Yamaha MODX range of synthesisers are ideal for a multitude of scenarios whether you're playing on stage, recording in the studio or simply just streaming...but with these new 'plus' models, they offer more power with upgraded polyphony, higher quality control wheels, more RAM memory and new sounds!
    Taking inspiration it's their bigger brother, the Montage, the MODX+ utilises two synthesis engines, one being the sample-based AWM2 Synthesis Engine (Advanced Wave Memory 2), the other being the FM-X Synthesis Engine (Frequency Modulation). Both can be used simultaneously, enabling performers to unlock and achieve impressive and complex soundscapes which are perfect for a wide selection of projects.
    One of the most standout functions is Smart Morph, which as the name suggests allows you to morph between FM-X sounds to achieve a selection of refreshingly new and interactive sounds. On the other hand, Motion Control allows control of up to 128 parameters at the same time, which can either be automated or manually controlled with the onboard Super Knob.
    Boasting over 2200 sounds and a 256 note Polyphony, the Yamaha MODX+ are premium music synthesisers, providing immersive studio quality performance from the very first note.

      I didn't start learning to play keyboard till I was 60 about 3 years ago. I have tiny hands with short fingers. Don't let anyone you can't learn to play. Even if that anyone is you. You can learn to play. And who knows you may get lucky like I did and find a used (nearly new) Montage 8 for half what a new one cost.

  • @eddiegarridobyrequest3990

    I love the MODX but I feel like Yamaha is not listening to the users. They are just recycling the same keyboard just with more polyphony, FM synthesis and more memory. It would be nice if one could upgrade their existing MODX. They missed the opportunity to add a much needed easier way to access rhythms and drum patterns, perhaps an integrated looper (the sequencer is not the same thing as a looper) physically they could have add more faders, maybe separate outputs, Bluetooth, guitar strap buttons and maybe even speakers haha! I don’t know it seems like what they have done; could have been done on an update and/or an upgrade rather than having to buy a new keyboard. But I love my MODX I wish they had a keytar with MODX guts to compete with Roland’s Axe Edge.

      Yeah, and how about a “playable” piano sound while they’re at it! I mean, the pianos for, say, just playing some jazz standards or light classical sound awful. My nearly 10 year old Nord Stage 2 compact literally kills the MODX7 when it comes to actual piano sounds, both in just the sound itself and definitely in the playability (how the action is integrated/programmed to respond to physical inputs and trigger an appropriate “piano” sound…) How can one of the world’s greatest piano makers get this so wrong? Any suggestions for good piano sound downloads for MODX7?

    I think the keyboard of the MODX8 plus is different to the Montage 8 keyboard. Is this correct?

    • @electriceyeswatching4415
      @electriceyeswatching4415 Рік тому

      I own both. Yes they are different.
      If you can swing the montage get it. The sample rates are less on the modx and is the biggest draw back.
      The weighted key bed isn't too bad.
