A message from the MODX+ Development Team
Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha MODX+ Music Synthesizer. We have designed this instrument so that
all of the amazing new ways of the sound expression made possible with the flagship synthesizer MONTAGE
are made even more widely accessible to many players.
Sounds
The MODX+ is equipped with the Motion Control Synthesis engine, the same sound processing
system installed on the MONTAGE. It provides high-definition AWM2 sounds, as well as
dynamic FM-X sounds-and allows them to be controlled seamlessly and flawlessly with various
controllers.
Also, the MODX+ has a new feature for instantly adding rhythm patterns so that the players can
take their music creation forward with dynamic rhythm parts. With this feature, creating rhythmic
changes in the “Motion Controls” is easier than ever!
Design
The MODX+ has been designed to be lightweight and portable, yet full-featured-with the Super
knob, a large-sized color LCD and other controllers that allow the same operability and
appearance as those of the MONTAGE. With the MODX+, you can take the MONTAGE sounds
virtually anywhere for performing.
We really hope that the MODX+ will help your creativity and musical work
grow by leaps and bounds.
Enjoy!
Sincerely,
The Yamaha MODX+ Development Team
