Yamaha MM6

Showreel for the Yamaha MM6.

[@TheMusicalStylingsofBrentBunn]

14 year old me saw this video back in 2007. I bought it and I still use it to this day. I'm now 24. Thank you for the all the happy year

[@elvistar]

The Best sales man in the history!

[@Tcho2100]

elvistar agree

[@TheBloozboy]

Great demo presentation! In a limited time this excellent musician has shown us so much the MM6 can do. Bravo!

[@RockwellDulcimer]

this is by far the most soulful synth demo I've ever seen!!! Bravo!!!!

[@mackymcklusky5138]

This guy rules. I can't even play and now I need to get one of these electrified pianos.

[@DaveSurreyUK]

What a brilliant demonstrator - his enthusiasm is infectious!

[@kaythchan]

Such an amazing salesman! Anyone can see how happy he is using the keyboard and that's the whole point!

[@TheSeriousTrouble]

Because of this guy I bought an MM6. A good decision it was. :D

[@danaowens30]

Good One yes❤ i agree. I have the MO6 ,MX49 MOXF6 and the MM6 the somewhat motif line

[@misjase]

Awsome demo...! He reminds me a bit of Photoshop guru Russell Brown, both completely hilarious as well as seriously good at what they do. Thanks for the show...!

[@bilbring]

Yamaha, tasty playing and to the point, can't go wrong with that. It's like with me and Ibanez. Incredible guitarist, great guitar manufacturer and straight to the point.

[@sakebutor1]

@sakebutor1 I mean, it takes a LOT of dedication to this keyboard to make the piano sound sweet like this, because of the lack of feel in the keys. A normal pianist would give up with this machine. This guy makes it sound like it's the best piano you've ever heard.

[@sphinxaces53]

Very nice keyboard...I have my Yamaha MM6...i upgrade and sold my Roland E-28...Now i'm enjoying my Yamaha MM6, very useful since i am handling 2 Choirs and A Show Band in our Company...Also i'm the Overall Coordinator of our Music Club..So many good patches and patterns...in the Future i'm planning to Upgrade on Yamaha MO6...

[@elevium7509]

Love this guy, he's so awesome and the things he played are also very good. ^^

[@TheJonCarrollMusic]

Seriously---one can't fake that enthusiasm or aptitude. What a guy.

[@quantumnexus]

That guitar blows my mind. I remember when I wanted a Motif so bad a few years back, but was never able to get it, and ended up getting a QS6.1, which was still good, but oh man I wanna get this when I can!

This presentation is amazing. Bert is amazing at finding the best sounds of a keyboard, even if sometimes he makes short clips so you don't realize the REAL quality of mm6. The MM6 seems interesting, but it doesn't have user presets for your own sounds, no aftertouch, only midi in and out, etc.

[@NancyMbWpg]

My Gosh --I am so impressed by your talent in playing .!!! wish I knew just a little bit of how to play like you --love everything you demo'd. I should have waited --and bought this yammie --i just bought the 530 and it will have to do. Thanks for sharing this vid !

[@bloodySunday77]

The guy is a proper showman!! Apart from his sales pitch in the end, that was quite fun...

[@carsonky]

I actually liked 5:02-5:11. I don't know what's more entertaining.. watching him play or seeing this great keyboard in action.

[@FelixLangstieh]

You're really fun to watch....great keyboard.....great presenter!!!!!:)

[@riteshmallik4939]

before buying this product I would love to learn from you,...You are madly in love with your job,..

[@northwestmike]

This guy is right up there with Ron Popeil, Chef Tony, Billy Mays, and the ShamWow Guy. I can honestly say Bert Smorenburg made me go from just thinking about ordering an MM6 to actually buying one. Can't wait to get mine. And to get funky.

[@kaythchan]

"I have no idea what I'm doing, but it's fun!" this guy is really one of a kind

[@kipp0man]

Brilliant review - this guy really knows how to play this thing - cheers for posting - PS - great sounds on 1st listen here - need to hear more soon.

[@cyberholix]

For jazz players, both of these keyboards are good. MM6 is the synth based on PSR-S500 gear. MM6 has the real-time sound modify knobs, PSR-S has more advanced arranger functionality. MM6 also has very realistic Mega Voices, whereas PSR-S has built-in speakers. MM6 is called "smaller, cheaper Motif", PSR-S500 is called "smaller, cheaper Tyros", so the choice belongs to you :)

[@danaowens30]

Step it up im from the XS Set MX49

[@voltaspeeder17]

This guy can make every keyboard sounds amazing :)

[@lopikosmusic9354]

This guy actually got me to buy one of these back in the day.

[@Jainjo]

Man!, that keyboard is wonderful! I want to buy that machine!!!

[@ThePetethetweet]

about time we had a more fun approach to these demos..the guys awesome..

[@RedEyeC]

I've used the MM6 live now for a year and a half - durable and everything this rep says it is. Looks like a toy, as light as a feather, but is filled with the big Motif features.

[@SubaruHoshikawa11]

I like him more and more, with every watch :D, he knows how to show product and what is going on at the moment, full profgesionalism :) I got Yamaha MM6 not long time ago and it's really fun ^_^ *violin sounds* Great video ^_^

[@ArturLenivenko]

Best presentation I have ever seen! I owned this keyboard, It is cool, it is sad that Yamaha don't produce it anymore. But the guy is amazing! Where is new demo with him?

[@totowroe]

YES! So awesome to see how stoked you are about music!

[@CardboardStories]

"I've got no idea what im doing but its fun" haha. very cool demo and instrument

[@squeakD]

Step up is HUGE! The step up is so big, it's like you're comparing two totally different instruments. You'll be going from the PSR arranger interface of the MM6 to a board that has the interface of the Motif ES. HUGE JUMP, and for some it's a large learning curve because the MM6 and the MO series are so different from eachother.

[@syafiq_yahya]

man this keyboard rocks!!, love yamaha stuff from their motorbikes to their music instrument!!..

[@omanaband]

the greatest consultant ever!!!!!!!!)))

[@SeanBires]

Bert Smorenburg is the bomb... at doing Yamaha product demos anyway. Go look them all up, he's pure entertainment.

[@Jazzper79]

It does sound great. I have bought it myself. I am actually mostly a pianist myself so I know what you are talking about when you are disappointed that the key are not weighted, but actually you get used to the keys very quickly. I think it is a great keyboard.

[@squeakD]

It is a PSR keyboard. The screen is from the DGX series, the knobs from the DJX line, the sequencer from the S-500. Several of the sounds are even from the PSR line. Yamaha beefed this PSR with Motif sounds and dropped the speakers. The Pre-MM6 was called the Yamaha DJX. Look that one up.

[@vidarw73]

Just found one on the second hand market. VERY good price.Getting it soon. Yay!!!

[@Hintze1970]

Now this is a great host to talk about keyboards! More videos please!

[@clockworkaccordion]

Its Adrian Edmondson!!! Such enthusiasm, i love it. He's right, i may just buy one of these as opposed to something at £100 which i was planning, until now.

[@jackpar9813]

This one video made me buy a Yamaha MM6.

[@AdlerNathan]

This guy is totally brilliant!

[@Dlbomber1]

I got mine in the mail today:) Thanks Bert your Demo convinced me!

[@johncupido230]

Great demo ! this guy has passion for his game and I like that. Do it with passion or don't do it at all. Keep it up champ.

[@turbomax]

oh man i love this guy...he makes those product-presentations fun!

[@marez71]

cool showman and nice machine!

[@gbastow]

I have the Juno D and I like really like the sound quality of it. This Yamaha seems pretty good also, and looks to have a few more features than the Juno. I hope this helps.

[@AdlerNathan]

Such a refreshing way to demo. Great demo! ;-)

[@piperwalton]

I've got a Yamaha MO8, but I've been kind of wanting an extra 61 key keyboard to go along with it. This one might be good...

[@brianmi40]

@cvl85 - not so much if you use a DAW tho - you can track it out to the DAW and keep on layering up...

[@harryfisher4107]

“ I have no idea what I’m doing but it’s fun “ amazing :)

[@ForcesNL]

I bought the thing from BAX! Really nice shop and amazing knowledged guys at the shop.

[@BiteTheCurbNow]

I have one of these Bought it for 100us... I love it. This is a great example of what it does... But no SPEAKERS. GOTTA RUN IT THRU MY BASS AMP... Sounds great.

[@thetreemind]

very good demo. I was looking at a Korg, but this is changing my mind big time!

[@Matt6607557]

This guy is awesome!!!... He knows how to sell a product.. Nice YAMAHA!!!

[@igorcarvalhopadilhaandrade5886]

🤠✌🏻Uhuuuuuu YEAH!🤠✌🏻

[@sdzogs112]

This guy is awesome!!! :D and the keyboard, too..

[@NPPusch]

I dont know what is more interesting. The Keyboard or this great guy xD He's in his element :D

[@VictorRoibu]

This guy knows how to play different tones, and how to show features of a keyboard!

[@JamesJoyner]

He is Yamaha's best demo guy. He makes me wanna buy this keyboard .

[@mallygeedkm]

This guy almost makes me want 2 buy this keyboard just because he looks like he's havin fun!

[@sakebutor1]

What the hell! :D No one could make me want to buy an instrument I cannot play. This guy just did. This guy can sell anything. And his playing is excellent.

[@Tekni]

That was a really cool presentation, thanks :)

[@NL59FIFTY]

i love how excited he gets and he's dutch and he's pretty good:D

[@simonhep]

This guy is a star - who cares about the keyboard, he should be on TV. At first I thought it was Adrian Edmonson doing a Swedish accent - brilliant!

[@Moonsician]

I'm also recordind the first album of my band with the keyboards entirely made from mm6 and nothing else. it just fills my needs

[@KJEboys]

I love the part when he plays the dance styles/pattern. Leads my to ask...what's the difference between what this can do...versus a true ARRANGER keyboard like Tyros or PSR-s900?

[@MangoldProject]

It's called being a good player - Bert knows his stuff ... if anything, sound quality here on KZbin is atrocious. The only thing they might have done is pass the sound through a mastering compressor/EQ, but you can do the same, using even the machine's own internal effects.

[@lycosa2000]

Best. Salesman. Ever. This guy cracks me up.

[@Moonsician]

@MeNoGud yes, it is. I have one. The guitar sounds realistic because it depends of the strenght you play it and the voice of your choice, so you have many possibilities and stuff. and the brass, well, they are terrific ;D

[@Stijlistik]

Well I love the introduction. It's as big as my Casio LK-55 but with more features. I'll consider buying it

[@EefsBeatz]

More reviews should be made like this... He's straight to the point.... And now I want an MM6!!! =]

[@Victorddt]

the sound is great!!!

[@timmhg]

Thanks for your time investment. I enjow your presentation. Only one question. If you have the PSR-S500 as an optional keyboard, what you can recommend and why? Regards.

[@harleyrider9166]

Best demo video ever!

[@juicebox_music]

This guy gets me excited about this keyboard all over again

[@YoshimusicLive]

Jeheiel Smith I prefer the MX61 or MoXF 6 instead

[@juicebox_music]

If I had the money to, I would as well But the mm6 costs a couple hundred dollars less than those.

[@YoshimusicLive]

Jeheiel Smith The only thing I don´t like on the MM6 is the keybed. I had one for testing, and it felt like the keyboard of a PSR-E-Series model. The sound is not bad at all.

[@cornishpasties]

Hahaha this sums it up: "I've no idea what I'm doing, but it's fun!" What a great guy!

[@zyghi]

Great presentation! I've got one question... Is it possible to make hip hop and r'n'b beats on this machine?? If yes I'll buy it!

[@belovedconsole]

Yes, this is an excellent presentation, this guy's style is awesome, and he can play to back it up-- great timing. Curious if I can record my own drum patterns on the Ya, but then it comes with Cubase, anyway so-- there ya go. Tax return present, here I come!

[@corndogers564]

It sounds that awesome and it's only a 32-note polyphonic instrument?

[@Narbeleth84]

I think so :) ! I have a Yamaha keyboard, and a MacBook. I use Garage Band, with a midi interface. You should be able to use it with ableton too... I've tried it, and it worked!

[@TheLunnyBear]

i could sit and watch him all day no shit

[@gennaeight]

I would buy the keyboard and pay to see you perform live - this is how synth demos should be done! Have you thought about doing some kind of musical comedy? "I've no idea what I'm doing but it's fun" brilliant!

[@hariel]

Other than megavoices my DGX-505 has the same pathces. Grand piano, sax, flute, strings, everything. From 2004...

[@HubertEtAlice]

Best demo of a keyboard ever 😎😎😎

[@UrbanVoiceTV]

Coolest synth demo - no argument!!!

[@squeakD]

All three of those are good models. You just have to ask yourself which one you'd like better in terms of sounds, and which one has the features you would use the most. However, keep in mind the Juno-G does not have a pattern sequencer. It only has a 16 trk sequencer (that does loop). The MO6 has both a 16 trk pattern and 16 trk linear. The TR has great sounds too, and IMO Korg still takes the lead in string and orchestral patches.

[@HOOKAMONKY]

Best demo EVER! I'm pretty sure this guy use to be a sham wow salesman! You following this camera guy?

[@MOISHE464]

awesome presentation.....thanks!!

[@maxwest2k]

excellent presentation!! :-)

[@juanllanca4912]

Esa era mi teclado, desearia tanto tenerlo devuelta en mi vida 😢

[@quantumnexus]

Yes, you can just use the computer and play it through there. I've been doing it for years. You just need to get a stereo cord (probably from a place like radio shack), and just plug that into the headphone out jack on the keyboard, and into the line in jack for the computer. I've got my DJX set up like that.

[@____stu____]

I reckon Bert could play a dried dog turd and I’d still want to buy it! Awesome enthusiasm!

[@keithh2755]

Agreed! I don't want to hear talk...play the machine! I'm buyin' one! Excellent demo!

[@kriswak]

You need a speaker to hook it up with, and you may or may not have to buy the cord to hook the two up separately. Or just headphones if you're not doing live performance with it. Other than that, a sustain pedal would be nice. That's my usual set-up.

[@timandmonica]

These synths have been lowered to $399 at Musicians Friend. Seems like an amazing deal considering what you get, and the price of a MIDI controller only being not to far from $399. It's like buying a MIDI controller and getting a synth workstation added on for only a little more.

[@fullofsmiles2000]

Dangnammit, I'm ready to it!!! He's definitely a seller!!!
