Yamaha MODX M7
The Yamaha MODX M7 is a high-performance stage synthesizer designed for musicians seeking power, flexibility, and expressiveness. Beneath its elegant design lie three complementary sound engines working in perfect harmony to deliver a sonic experience of exceptional depth.
The AWM2 engine orchestrates samples with 128 voices of polyphony and over 10 GB of internal waveforms, faithfully reproducing acoustic instruments. The FM-X opens the door to modern FM synthesis, rich in harmonics and evolving textures, while the all-new AN-X engine brings iconic analog sounds back to life with three oscillators and a noise generator. These three engines are unified by the Motion Control Synthesis Engine, which enables expressive control and unprecedentedly smooth sonic transitions.
The 76-note semi-weighted FSB keyboard offers a firm and balanced playing feel, with precise rebound that reinforces the connection between touch and sound. Ideal for transitioning from percussive rhythmic playing to soft, expressive pads, it ensures perfect control on stage and in the studio.
Its 7" TFT color touchscreen makes it easy to navigate between Performances, Live Sets, and Arpeggios. The interface is intuitive, even while performing. Physical controllers, including the Super Knob, 8 faders, and assignable potentiometers, provide direct control of essential parameters for total musical control.
The 16-track sequencer, its 128 patterns, 128 songs, and over 10,000 built-in arpeggios open up endless creative possibilities. With multi-channel USB and MIDI 2.0 compatibility, the MODX M7 integrates seamlessly into any production environment.
Yamaha provides the ESP (Expanded Softsynth Plugin), which faithfully replicates the MODX M7's operation in a DAW, and Cubase AI (included) for frictionless recording, editing, and mixing. Together, they ensure seamless integration between hardware and software creation.
