Powerful Sounds
Yamaha have taken the sound source of the MOX8 from the Motif XS series of workstations. Originally costing twice the price, the Motif XS sounds soon became the standard of sound quality in the professional music industry and now this high quality sound source has been adapted into the casing of the MOX8.There are 1,270 sounds, starting with Yamahas renowned CFIII grand piano sound; all the acoustic instrument sounds (strings, brass, guitar, bass, drums and more) that made the MOTIF XS so popular are included. Of course the 8 element Voices, 18 different filter types and extensive effects section are also great for creating the vintage analog and modern digital synthesizer sounds that are used in the electronic and hip hop music scenes.
Quick and Easy Operation
Designed perfectly for live use and in the studio the MOX8 has been designed for speed and ease of use. 16 Different instrument categories with sub-categories make it quick to get the sound you need. With the Performance Creator you can easily build up layer or split performances by a single button press. Start with a voice you like, press LAYER and a suitable layer sound will be chosen. Press SPLIT and a left hand Bass sound is called up automatically. Go to DRUM ASSIGN and you can play along with the tons of built in rhythm patterns.
Built-In Sequencer
The Yamaha MOX-8 contains a powerful multi-track sequencer. A great feature saving the need for having to have your computer linked in just to jot down your song ideas. The sequencer has both real-time recording and step recording modes.You can use the creative inspiration from Performances and directly record them to a Song/Pattern simply by pressing the [REC] button. After creating the outline in a matter of seconds you can easily edit and refine your song to final completion all within the MOX8.
USB MIDI and Audio Interfacing
Yamaha have kitted the MOX8 out with a 4-in 2-out USB audio interface so you can record the internal sounds directly to your MAC or PC. Two dedicated audio inputs can be used for recording guitars and vocals into your computer. The MOX6 comes bundled with Cubase AI so the USB connection can be used for audio transfer as well as MIDI control and recording. Trigger VSTs direct from your favourite DAW with ease. The MOX6 makes a great central hub for your system. MIDI cotnroller, audio interface and sound source all in one.
