How To Program the Super Knob on the Yamaha Montage/ MODX 

Dom you've helped me so much with my Montage and my wife's MODX (she plays bass on it). I really appreciate all your excellent videos and straightforward approach, it's helped a bunch navigating these complex synths. Big thanks from Silver City, New Mexico!

Thanks Dom,just bought this mighty stuff 2 months back n am enjoying just coz of ur guidance... M also been sharing to my friends and asked them to follow u as u have just simplified the operating of Montage...!!! God bless u...!!!

wow Thank you So So Much. I am a Korean user and couldn't find a high level lesson like yours. I was in the mood to cry because I didn't know how to make a sound, but I'm so glad to find you. The feature called Control Assign is a very crazy feature. I had no idea.

Manhhh, this is awesome!!!! Thanks for the video mate

Amazing explanation. You have a teaching talent.

WOW, this made my day!!! Please create more such wonderful yet simple tutorials! This instrument REALLY does deserve more love and more wisdom!!! Thank you a lot!

Thank you so much. The user manual was so hard to follow and you solved my issue in a couple of clicks. Legend👌🏻

Just subscribed to your channel Dom. Loving it. Keep it up.

Thank you for these videos, I have learned so much about my new modx. They helped me more than the owner manual. Thanks agian for a fine job.

Hi Dom. Thanks for your videos I’m a big fan of yours and I’m also (sort of) Yamaha collector/enthusiast! If that’s even a thing! I hope I don’t sound wrong here but this video is for promotional purposes only and barely useful to MODX/Montage users. And the reason is this; you know very well that what you are showing here only applies to very basic sounds that have no/or minimum assignments already existing, that’s why you are able to assign these parameters with one knob turn with no problem. As soon as you start messing around with a little more complex sounds you hit a wall, and by that I mean the message that says (assignable knob full), this is a VERY crucial thing that No one seem to talk about in the videos although it happens to me with almost every sound that I try to mess around with. I kinda found my way through this by reading a lot of complicated articles and discussions over the Yamaha synth forum but still I’m getting confused sometimes specially when I try to import super knob assignments from different parts when layering them together. It would be much appreciated for us users if you can do a real life example of layering sounds or assigning splits with different sounds and importing their assign knobs into the new performance.

Thank you very much for these great tutorials, just got my MODX8 a few days ago, it's a great synth but sometimes very complex and your videos are really helpful! Greetings from Berlin

Thanks Dom, I am still learning my MoDX and all these videos help tremendously.

Great video Dom. And yes, editing FM sounds was almost impossible on the original DX7, but the visual display here makes it possible at last. What a great machine - I have a MO-DX7 and love it.

Very useful thanks. I haven't had my montage for long and it can be daunting trying to locate things as the possibilities go so deep. This helps. Please keep this type of tutorial coming thanks 👍

Thanks for your tutorial video, it's so helpful 🙏♥✨

Great video! More videos utilizing the Superknob for the future... I think this instrument is underrated!

Thank You very much, It Works on the MODX and its yeasier than the manual! I watch all your videos congratulations for you knowledge and didatic to explain and solve those doubts!

Dom can you PLEASE do a video on the MODX showing how to midi hardware. Not all of us use a DAW

Thank you Dom, great learning video as usual ;)

Thanks very much.

So cooool😁 Is it possible to cancel assignment?

Thanks very much for this Dom ! Very useful for fading Strings in and out. How do you reverse the volume ? Turn volume DOWN on one Part while turning volume UP on another Part ?

I don't know if it is related, but I'm using an arpeggio in a performance, and there is an lfo on the part cutoff, open and close the cutoff. I want to switch off the lfo, but f@k, I don't find it anywhere. Maybe there's is a built in motion sequence in the arpeggio? How can I switch it off? Any advice would appreciate. Thanks in advance.

Hi Dom, thanks a lot for your usefull video tutorials. Often I have to watch them several times to fully understand what you are doing :-). You say in this video that you loaded a dx7 sound. Can you make a tutorial too about loading and managing sounds and the storage structure on the Montage? I can load libraries in my Montage, but I would like to be able to load a single sound/performance instead of a complete library. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

How do you turn the light off

Hi. It's simple to understand how to pass the reverb or volume to the superknob. But what about, a rotary, like the effect on the wheel?

Nice video. Can I use the super knob to control the transpose

Thanks!

Hi Dom, great video, as always :-) please can you tell us, how did you get the touchscreen-picture captured and routed to an video-output ? For an example i wish i could connect an LCD-/TFT-Screen to the Montage to get a better view in the studio for programming etc. this is still not documented by Yamaha. thanks a lot and go on !

How did you screen record the touch panel of your montage? Thank you in advance!

hi, they dont have v2.0 anymore in the yamaha website.... i have v1.5 can you share the file v2.0 and upload it in Mega.... please, thanksss

Dom Corleone the keyboard farther 👀

Hai Dom can you make A Future Bass patch on montage? "WOBBLE" Thanks

Which should I buy modx or montage? Pls somebody give me authentic review...

Hi. How do you add more than 1 voice to the superknob without overlapping the sounds?

This tutorial is available for MODX?

Man, I use my DX7II as a preset machine and a stompbox effect pedal. I wish it had more edit ability but the montage seem to big and intimidating. I initially thought of getting the 8 and selling my DX7 but that thing is unproportionally huge!!! And there is not time to actually play it, it's basically a computer more than it is an instrument. I like tactile stuff. Awww

Rotery effect assign to superknop how does this work?

Can I set a value to only a specific range of the super knob?

I can't tell what you are talking about , what are operators? what is a curve? You picked a sound with lots of release time to show reverb changes? Couldn't hardly tell any change. The only thing I got out of this was you can assign a param change to the super knob. What's the difference between that and any other knob?

Hi Dom, where can i load the DX7 lib into my Montage? Do not find the STRING 1. Do you have a recommendation for it? Or where to buy.
