The Montage has disappeared from the online magazine again! Now, a guitar is shown on the same page. Let's hope it's just because Yamaha didn't want it out so early...
Lets just hope that it wasnt fully correct, and has more then just 2 synth engines... I think a AWM, FM, VA and VL synth would be what people atleast expected/hoped
pretty sure we will see it at namm

I love the word Vlaggenschepen - Flaggschiff in German and flagship in English, one of those remarkably similar words. Anyway, it seems to be all over town, this thing is coming.
Its a free translation of the orriginal article that got deleted, no real information, they just copied pasted the article and added some fancy metaphores...
Still needs to be seen how much the orriginal leak had right, and how much information wasnt there...

I think there could be other sources surfacing first

the Montage has "4 GB of waveform storage" ("Mémoire de 4 GB pour les formes d’onde"). If this refers to the flash size for libraries, it would be a bit disappointing. But I wonder where they got the information from and if it is reliable.

If Yamaha has taken FM synthesis to the next level it will be interesting to see how it compares with FM8
Also if that’s all it’s got then apart from more wave memory I can’t see much relevance to a new advanced arranger, so hopefully there is a lot more to come.

There is something relevant, but it has already been implemented in the PSR-S970: the new chip, which allows for more power regarding waveROM, polyphony and other qualities. The S970 is the first instrument to use it (hence the large waveROM), now the Montage, and it will surely be implemented into Tyros 6, while the 5 doesn't have it yet. http://sandsoftwaresound.net/swp70-tone-generator/
