Yamaha MODX Synthesizer In-Depth Demo 

silV not necessarily because a certain sound can contain more elements for example one not on a pad may be really 5 notes of polyphony used

Its graded hammer. You're going to have to go to a Guitar Center but I think you're going to be getting about the same thing as what the moXF series had

As a successor to the MOXF it would have the same if not improved action for the 88-key bed. Like like I said you should go to Guitar Center, or any local music store that carries it, and play the keys for yourself. That way you'll know if you like the feel or not.

duketranslucent3rd key bed is very good on the modx88 that’s the one I have feels heavier more like a real piano it’s def better than moxf

@Moses Medina - thanks - I bought it! Loving it so far, but SO much to learn...

FAHIM UR REHMAN 8 at once and if you put record mode you can layer 16

Moses Medina no you can’t only in the Montage you can layer 16 sounds at once

128 in the AWM engine and another 64 in the FM-X engine. Total of 196 between them.

@@boxwes So not 1000+ like the mx series or montage? Dang

ChilledGemini99 What do you mean by voices? If you are talking sounds available there are over 2000 presets that come with it plus a ton of backwards compatability with prior Yamaha synths (Montage, Motif, DX7, etc.) The 196 voices I am referring to is how many different sounds can it play at once.

@@boxwes yes that's what I'm talking about lol

@@boxwes Ohh you're talking about polyphony.

Jerry Jose what ? I had the moxf8 i sold it modx is light years ahead it has all the stuff form the modx and a sounds from the montage it sounds amazing ! It’s basically a montage ! Sound wise

So switch it off.

It‘s not unnecessary. If you have a drum pattern included in your performance (starting with the first note played) you‘ll be glad to know the tempo in advance.

Hi Peter. The MODX is perfect for ... well ... me! I'm in my mid 50s ... play in a cover band with lots of dates in 2019. I got my MODX7 back in October and absolutely love it! The weight is just 16.5 pounds but the sounds are what sold me on this keyboard. Truly excellent acoustic and electric pianos, strings, brass ... over 2000 patches. I could go on and on about the features and benefits of the MODX. For me the light weight is a bonus. I think you'll like it if you check it out. Almost forgot ... the MODX is very affordable, too. Enjoy!

Exactly. Its boring by now. Im very interested in the simple sequencer it has built in for example.

mozes7 no doubt some real world work would be nice

agreed! this is frustrating

What is your listening equipment ? 44khz soundcard ?

Comp Fox apogee ensemble @96khz & motu @48 khz

Yup modx is capable of 16/24b 44khz ... if you understand

Plastic yes...but definitely no toy.

@@Nymitch11 Montage, Kronos are professional boards. This Modx is a toy made of plastic. Maybe you want to buy one because it's more affordable. We all love what we own and I've owned every pro board for the last 30yrs. Yamaha could have popped it in a medal shell for $75 more with some wood sides. How amazing would have that been? ;) This will drop $300 by next summer. 61key at $999 I could have bought the Montage for $2150 new in box from guitar center but passed. Just wasn't impressed. But I can't wait for the successor.

More like 600 for the oudated sounds and psr style drum kits

@@sjcongo That's what I was thinking. Those drum sound so weak. Pathetic

@NEOISON. I had a Motif XS6, and later the XF6. I sold my Motif to buy the Montage 6, and I was not disappointed at all. I preordered a MODX because I wanted something to replace my MOXF6, which was getting dated. I agree that MODX is not made for professional use
