Yamaha MODX8+ 88 Key Synthesizer

Its 88 keys Graded Hammer Standard keyboard makes the MODX8+ a Music Synthesizer that is perfect for keyboardists who want to combine their pianistic demands with multi-layered and dynamic sounds - to stand out on every stage, studio, or stream. And all that with a live weight of just under 14 kg.

The MODX8+ uses the same powerful technologies as its big brother MONTAGE creating its sounds with the help of two Synthesis Engines: the Sample-based AWM2 Synthesis Engine (Advanced Wave Memory 2) and the FM-X Synthesis Engine (Frequency Modulation), which can be used at will and in parallel. The result is exceptional sound quality and complex sound design that is further enhanced by additional functions. Smart Morph, for example, allows morphing between FM-X sounds, creating a variety of new and interactive sounds. Motion Control allows simultaneous control of up to 128 parameters - automated or manually with the Super Knob.
