Best keyboard I've ever played

There's nothing negative I can say about this beast. Same sound engine as the montage. Such a light weight!!! The action on the keys is perfect, of course it's a Yamaha and everything they make is at pro level. I still have so much to discover on this beautiful board but so far everything is perfect. Can't wait to see what else I discover.

First synth for a professional sax player

My fellow musicians have the montage which did not fit my budget. The ModX is an excellent addition to the studio. I connect this to a MacPro, and a mixer and has more or less all the features of a top end synth. Sax and guitar accompaniment feels natural and here.are some of YouTube recordings:
