General
Yamaha present pianists with extensive, richly expressive and far-reaching sound in the tight form of the MODX8 synthesizer, alongside the full support of an 88-note GHS keyboard. Each key mimics the weighted hammer-response of an acoustic piano to ensure an authentic and dynamic playing feel and is the result of 125 years of piano building experience, while inside this instrument, lies the result of 40 years spent developing and building potent synthesizers.
The MODX8: Classic Meets Modern
Under the hood of this powerful yet pianist-friendly synthesizer, lies the full-force of the AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2) sample and synthesis engine, able to generate sounds including drums and acoustic instruments with faithful precision. Next to that, lies the FM-X (Frequency Modulation) that can create the definitive sound of contemporary electronic music as if from thin air. Everything, from the sounds to the built-in effects and filters, is smoothly and intuitively navigated, steered and tweaked via a 7-inch touchscreen and a bank of tactile controllers. This mash-up of two worlds comes complete with a PC and Mac compatible copy of Steinberg Cubase AI.
