Details
The Yamaha MX-88 is a music synthesizer equipped with an 88-note Graded Hammer Action keyboard, a maximum polyphony of 128 notes, and Virtual Circuit Modeling. The MX-88 is ideal for the modern piano player who desires a realistic piano action and inspiring synth sound, as well as easy connectivity to computers and iOS devices.
Featuring Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) weighted action, the keyboard offers a heavier response in the low keys and a lighter response in the high keys, thereby providing a realistic acoustic piano touch and response. The Full Concert Grand piano in the MX88 comes directly from the MOTIF series. With a powerful focused low-end, highly detailed midrange and pristine high-end, the Full Concert Grand piano is perfect for any style of music in any environment.
The MX88 is a lightweight and portable music synthesizer with 88 full-sized, touch-sensitive keys and over 1,000 voices from the legendary MOTIF. An optimized touch curve provides the player with a high level of expression, realism and dynamic. The MOTIF Sound Engine is a powerful synthesizer technology with Voices consisting of up to eight Elements. These Elements can be layered for a thick, fat sound or zoned so a different Element plays in different parts of the keyboard.
FM Essential is a free 4-Operator FM synthesizer app for iOS, and connecting the MX88 Music Synthesizer (via an Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter – not included) unlocks 271 FM Voices from classic ‘80s to cutting-edge modern EDM. FM Essential also features built-in effects, EQ, drum phrases and a step sequencer for automating your control changes.
Virtual Circuitry Modeling re-creates the sound and behaviour of vintage effects and high-end studio signal processors by modelling the circuits down to the original analogue component level. 128 notes of polyphony ensure dropout-free performance playing live or with full 16-track sequences. The MX88 is USB audio and MIDI class-compliant. There is also a 16-channel MIDI interface built-in for using the MX88 as both a keyboard controller and tone generator.
