Just sounds like typical Yamaha marketing..

Altough with Yamaha’s synth division, i wouldn’t be surprised if it was patched up later..
They have upgraded montage considerably over its lifespan so far..
The orriginal montage didnt have daw control untill patch 2.5

Donny, it doesn’t even have a sequencer...
You use it either with a daw, or with an arranger module..
Or stand alone, with a live band or friends..
Its a peformance key, not a workstation..



Bachus, by the way, it DOES have a sequencer. It says so in the specs under "Performance Recorder" at Yamaha's website.

Thats not what i call a sequencer..
Its more like a scratchpad...
Not really usefull at all..

Believe me i tried and played with it on the montage quite extensively..
Its comparable with the recording features a dp had like 20 years ago..
Just real live recording your playing..
No edditing at all..

Bachus sort of beat me to this point - a Genos fitted into the MOXD7 form factor would be very enticing to me, it's no bigger than a 61_key tyros isn't it?
