Yamaha MODX M7 76-key Performance Synthesizer

Yamaha MODX M7 76-key Performance Synthesizer

Designed for the serious keyboardist, the Yamaha MODX M7 builds on its acclaimed predecessors’ impressive capabilities to deliver next-generation sound, expressive control, and workflow optimization in a sleek, lightweight, and roadworthy performance synth. Deeply expressive performances begin with a keyboard that responds instantly to your creative input, and that’s where the MODX M7 excels with its newly developed 76-note semi-weighted keybed and comprehensive control set featuring a logical top-panel control layout that provides intuitive real-time, hands-on tweakability. The MODX M7 is powered by three state-of-the-art Yamaha sound engines that serve up gritty classic analog synths, cutting-edge FM synthesis, vitalizing motion sequences, hyper-realistic instrument sounds, and more. It all adds to a formidable performance synthesizer that will elevate your music to the next level.

Three beastly sound engines deliver a universe of sounds

Yamaha has equipped MODX M7 with three powerful interactive sound engines, each optimized for specific tasks, plus the groundbreaking Motion Control Synthesis system, which opens up new vistas of sound design possibilities with advanced features like Motion Sequences, the Super Knob, an Envelope Follower, and more. Integrated into the Motion Control system, the AN-X engine re-creates the warm, classic sounds and behavior of vintage analog synthesizers and provides the means to control them with two filters, 10 filter types, pulse-width modulation, oscillator self sync, ring modulation, frequency modulation, and wave share, plus variable voltage-drift and aging parameters. Offering up to 128 Elements per Part, the AWM2 sample-based engine gives you an expansive canvas for crafting emulative, richly layered, high-definition instrument sounds with plentiful articulations and vibrant dynamics, realism, and expression. Lastly, the FM-X engine takes classic 8-operator FM digital synthesis in a modern direction with complex, dynamic sound design potential.

Performance-focused design puts you in control

For easy transportation between home, stage, and studio, the MODX M7’s advanced technology is integrated into a lightweight, streamlined chassis that’s built to withstand the rigors of demanding professional schedules. Rocking an ergonomic top-panel control layout featuring eight physical faders, six dedicated display knobs, dedicated Part and Scene buttons that let you control eight parts per performance, and a color touchscreen, the M7 offers quick navigation and intuitive sound editing for an optimized workflow. As the MODX M7’s knobs, Super Knob, Pitch Bend, Mod Wheel, and sound engines are calibrated in high resolution, you’ll find the MODX M7 responds more smoothly than its predecessors. The semi-weighted keybed has also been improved to provide faster, more substantial synth action for optimal playability. Under the hood, MODX M7 offers an upgrade of up to 268 notes of polyphony across its three sound engines, plus a whopping 10.7GB of AWM2 memory and 1.9GB of User flash memory, enabling it to play and store the most complex modulating sounds and sequences you can conjure up.

Advanced technology optimized for stage and studio

Boasting technology ported from Yamaha’s flagship Montage M synthesizer, the MODX M7 offers a vast onboard arsenal of instantly accessible sounds along with intuitive performance controls to quickly modify and deploy them in the heat of a live gig. MODX M7 is quite impressive in the studio as well, although you may find you don’t need the actual instrument, thanks to the free Expanded Softsynth Plug-in (ESP) that replicates MODX M7 in your DAW of choice, allowing you to create, edit, and mix MODX M7 performances without the hardware. To get you started, you get a free download of Cubase AI, which covers the basics for recording, editing, and mixing on your computer. For DAW connectivity, MODX M7 is spec’d with USB/MIDI 2.0 and a 10-input, 4-output audio interface, which provide MIDI and multitrack audio recording and virtual instrument monitoring via a single USB cable for a streamlined studio setup. Ready to step up to a new level of sonic exploration and musical expression? The Yamaha MODX M7 will get you there.
