The sound is the most important aspect of any instrument. The power of the MODX synthesis engine allows the unlimited potential to create your own unique sound demanded by any artist. The MODX sound engine is based on the same technology powering the flagship MONTAGE: AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2) sample and synthesis engine and a pure FM-X (Frequency Modulation) synthesizer modernized for amazing sound playback and complex sound design.

AWM2 and FM-X
Only found in Yamaha music synthesizers, the AWM2 engine offers much more than just sample playback. Each of the 16 AWM2 parts features eight fully-programmable synthesizers with a filter (18 different types!,) amplitude, pitch, and filter envelope generators, nine LFOs, 3-band EQ and a dedicated dual insert effect with Virtual Circuitry Modeling. FM-X is an amazingly sophisticated pure synthesizer engine capable of producing classic '80s or cutting-edge, EDM sound with incredible dynamic range, power, and fidelity. MODX features an 8-operator FM architecture and 64-note polyphony, allowing for a massive array of sound design options.

SUPER KNOB
The Super Knob allows simultaneous control of up to 128 parameters in a single Performance. This means you can control nearly anything from mix functions like volume, pan and effect sends to detailed synth parameters like filters, LFOs, and Operators. That's 128 parameters ... SIMULTANEOUSLY! The Super Knob can even be assigned to a second FC7 foot controller making it easy to manipulate the sound when playing with both hands.

MOTION SEQUENCES
Motion Sequences are tempo-synchronized, completely customizable control sequences that can be assigned to virtually any synthesizer parameter and provide incredible new ways of creating sound. Motion Sequences also have dedicated controls on the front panel making it easy to manipulate and change in real-time, providing incredible interactivity and expression.

ENVELOPE FOLLOWER
The Envelope Follower converts audio into a control source for control of virtually any synthesizer parameter. For example, a drum loop could drive effects parameters for a cool rhythm or a vocal recording could control multiple parameters for a "talking" synthesizer. The audio can even be a "live" source through the A/D input.

AUDIO BEAT-SYNC
ABS (Audio Beat Sync) detects the beat of an external device like an electronic drum kit, drum machine or audio player plugged into the A/D input and synchronizes the MODX Arpeggiator, Motion Sequencer or Songs to the tempo of the external input. The MODX synthesizer "listens" to live music and plays in time.

EFFECTS
From high definition reverbs to incredibly detailed Virtual Circuit Modeling (VCM) effects, MODX is loaded with DSP innovation, power and, most importantly, sound quality. Use effects like Beat Repeat, Vinyl Break or Bit Crusher to get EDM sound. The Spiralizer effect creates the auditory illusion of a tone continually rising or falling in pitch without getting higher or lower. You can even add a compressor with sidechain for a modern "ducking" effect. Or go retro with vintage effects like Analog Delay, VCM Phaser or a variety of Amp Simulators. Piano players will appreciate piano-focused effects like Damper Resonance for a super-realistic piano experience and the HD reverbs that let you put yourself in any performance space.

FREE Samson Headphones
This synth comes with a free pair of Samson SR950 Professional Studio Reference Headphones. Featuring a closed-ear design, self-adjusting headband, 50mm drivers, and 10Hz-30kHz frequency response to deliver crystal clear audio for extended listening sessions.

Awesome sounds! / Low volume?

Great keyboard with awesome, authentic sounds. Would give 5 stars if not for the low volumes I'm getting. When playing at church through a passive direct box with the keyboard volume turned all the way up and the soundboard channel set at its max volume (0 slider position), the keyboard is overwhelmed by guitars and vocals. Admittedly, it may be the gain for the Soundboard channel is set too low and/or I may need a powered direct box, but the low volume sound issues weren't present with the previous keyboard. Should it turn out to be the soundboard or passive direct box rather than the keyboard, I'll edit this review. Sam Ash was AWESOME to work with. The keyboard not only was eligible for a discount and they threw in a free set of earphones! Value-added customer service! I'll continue to shop Sam Ash.

Great Keyboard with half the weight,

This is a great lightweight keyboard. I was tired of dragging around my Motif XF, and decided to check out the MODX 7. It's a great replacement that is light enough to carry with out hand. The only thing I miss is the aftertouch, but otherwise the sounds and features surpass my Motif. I was able to add the Motif performances to the MODX.

Worth it

Excellent board. So glad I got it. Has all the sounds of the venerable Montage at a fraction of the price. Shipped to my home and arrived very quickly. Sam Ash does a great job serving its customers.
