      Get the Yamaha MODX8 synthesizer and official gigbag bundle to keep your new instrument protected as you take it around with you. MODX8 is essentially the baby Montage 8 with a superb 88 note weighted piano action, world class sounds and the most innovative real-time sound control capabilities of any synth in its class.

      The sound engine in the MODX is exactly the same as found in the flagship Yamaha Montage 8, offering top class AWM2 sounds and FM-X sound engine showing off the classic sounds from products like the world renowned DX7 and classic FM products of yesteryear. However the MODX8 offers an 88 note weighted piano action so when making use of the incredible CFX piano or the free Bosendorfer piano library sounds, you get much more control and dynamics from the keys giving an authentic piano playing experience.

      The top panel consists of an array of live sound controllers with 4 rotary encoders, 4 sliders and the powerful Superknob controller. Superknob can be assigned to control an array of parameters - in fact up to 128 of them all in a single swoop! Its possible to adjust an LFO on one part whilst increasing the cutoff, then reduce the volume of another part and change reverb level on another - your imagination is the limit here. It offers unprecedented control and can even all be controlled live by a single FC7 foot pedal.

      Our MODX8 bundle comes with the official Yamaha MODx gigbag. This bag offers deluxe padding and robust design to protect your instrument during transport. Designed specially to fit, it also has wheels for pulling along and a separate compartment on the front for accessories. Of course the ligthweight 13.8kg design of the MODX8 means its a breeze to carry in the bag anyway.
