How many people here would even consider a kb like this?

I like synthesizers like the Motif XF, which I have, but personally, I prefer a keyboard that focuses on acoustic sounds. Plus, I'm still hoping to get an arranger one day - - - BEFORE I die!

Actually it looks awesome, its light (less then 7kg for the 61 key) and small..
I am considering to replace my gopiano with a modx6
I use the gopiano when out of town.. the modx6 is almost the same size...
It has everything one needs, except for an arranger section..


If yamaha was wise, they would make the next gen montage same size and weight as the modx

Next to that, this keyboard has all the things i am missing on Genos... it should be part of Genos 2...

I don't know about that here, people want to just fire up their arranger kb, select a style, and play songs..
but once you mention playing with Midi files, editing,
creating tracks, from scratch, etc, etc, ...things get very quiet.....but good luck to whoever gets one to play enjoy.

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..

Here is another Demo:

I probably missed it but didn't see it mentioned anywhere about the MODX be able to use as a DAW remote? Any idea? Thanks

No, that feature does not seem to be in yet..
Think yamaha wants to keep it exclusive for montage..

With the huge difference in weight, seems to me like the montage will be more studio oriented, and the modx is the stage beats



The video shows how easy it is to use...
Espescially when i compare it to my kronos..
