Empower your creativity, take control and stand out from the crowd with MODX8: a compact, lightweight synthesizer designed for inspired music-making.
Yamaha Modx8 88-Key Synthesizer
MODX gives you the confidence to take on any project, gig or musical exploration with amazing sound. Thanks to the combination of Yamahas two amazing synthesizer technologies: Advanced Wave Memory 2 (AWM2) and Expanded Frequency Modulation (FM-X). The result is a world of sound not possible with a single synth engine. Add to that a world of performance features and a lightweight design that can go just about anywhere with you, the MODX Series expands on the sophistication and inspiration that Yamaha keyboards are known for. MODX also features Yamahas proprietary Motion Control, which adds an unprecedented amount of movement to its AMW2 and FM-X combination sound engines.
Combined Synth Engines
MODX Keyboards feature the best of both worlds. Incorporating Yamahas Advanced Wave Memory 2 (AWM2) and Expanded Frequency Modulation (FM-X) sound engines, you get an exciting blend of sampled-based and FM synthesis technologies wrapped into one powerful instrument. AWM2 uses a combination of high-quality sound recordings with a powerful synthesizer engine to create stunning emulative acoustic instruments, synth sounds, drums and more. FM-X is a unique, expressive, highly programmable synthesis technology for dynamic music creation and sound design. At a basic level, FM-X works by using one sound to change (modulate) the pitch (frequency) of another. This method lends itself to creating harmonically rich and expressive sounds.
AWM2 works by breaking down sound into Elements. Elements can by layered for a thicker sound, split across various parts of the keyboard, switched in and out based on how hard you play, randomized and much more. Elements can also be shaped in terms of loudness, timbre and pitch and processed with high-quality DSP. AWM2 offers highly dynamic and expressive sound with unparalleled fidelity.

Music that Moves You
A MODX Performance has up to 16 Parts. A Part can be a stand- âalone instrument like an acoustic bass or a synth lead. A Part can âalso be a component of a more complex sound. For example, an âorchestral performance might use a single Part just to re-create âthe violin section. âMODX continues the tradition of inspiring musicians to discover, âcreate and control their own unique sound. The real-time control âcapabilities in MODX allow dynamic changes to your music. Orchestral brass swells that not only get louder but larger, âtextures that fade-in sounds while fading-out others or dynamic changes to multiple effect parameters simultaneously. This level âof control empowers uniqueness where your approach to MODX is âyours alone. â
