The MODX8+ packs an astonishing amount of power and features, akin to the MONTAGE, but in a substantially lighter design. It was engineered to be a formidable powerhouse in the studio as well as a reliable stage companion, with its ease of transport making load-ins and loud-outs a breeze. In addition to being a beautifully sophisticated synth in its own right, MODX8+ packs the power of the DX7, DX7II, TX802 and TX816 synthesizers, all of the sounds created by Yamaha’s world-class sound designers and artists since they started making synths 1974, a built-in drum machine in Rhythm Pattern, as well as the coveted Bösendorder Imperial Grand Piano. With 1.75GB of integrated, non-volatile, low-latency flash memory, you can save your music and custom samples—or download synth libraries from the Yamaha MusicSoft site in a cinch.
