YAMAHA-MODDX8/MODX+ Synthesizer overview and sound demo 

What is Yamaha MODX / MODX+ ?
MODX synthesizer It is a lighter version of a flagship Yamaha Montage.
This instrument with 88 keys hammer action and great sounding piano, is perfect for worship music and can be used as a dedicated stage piano.
The biggest competitor for this product would be the Fantom-08 from Roland and Korg Nautilus-88
This instrument also offers the ability of reading custom samples. It is possible to load your modified samples into this instrument, as long as they are in the format of Yamaha MODX / MODX+
I was able to use my Yamaha Motif XS7 sampler to convert my samples to the MODX format. Once I had the samples loaded into Yamaha MODX, I was able to re-create some of the desired sounds.
I believe that the Yamaha website provides some custom samples for purchase, but you can also buy these from third-party websites.

Thank you for the video. The MODX is a truly great sounding synth, especially for the price. Btw: What a great sound at 2:44 Is this a factory preset?

[@synthmaniak]

Thank for your good feedback. As for sound proud 2:44, I believe in my modify but from factory sound.

do Yamaha MODX 8 and Yamaha MODX 8+ have different updates (upgrades) from the download site?

[@doordedeur]

What used to be the mid-classed synths, with less features and sounds. are now the top-class synths with reduced hardware. Software like sounds and effects don't cost money anymore, but good audio hardware does cost money. There is where the costs are cut down now. Hearing the ModX doesn't shake my trousers like an original Motif does. The lack of dynamics lies in the cheaper hardware.

[@synthmaniak]

It's all good, If you prefer the software, that't probably why to go, especially when recording song project. The hardware keyboard/synths are still more enjoyable and stable, especially when preforming live. I just happen to use both of those, since I use the hardware as well for other stuff software synth music plugins.

Please give me an opinion which has best Organ sounds, Yamaha SX900,MODX 88+ & CK88 ? Thank you.

[@flopflp5534]

For me, I'd say the CK88. The MODX has an organ samples. I think the CK has an organ engine.

[@EdMiran]

​@@flopflp5534 Thank you. Maybe one day please make also a Demo of CK 61 or CK88, specifically Organ sounds.

[@synthmaniak]

Sorry, I don't play much of organ sounds. So with is better, I don't know especially since I don't have CK series to compere? However, since I have Nord Stage 3, in my opinion the organs like B3 sound on MODX sounds really good.

[@HrWisch]

If only the keybeds weren't such shit. It's even worse due to the fact that the Montage sound engine isn't designed to be played via an external keyboard.

[@patriciaoudart1508]

For this use I have the Roland Jupiter 50, this is complementary to analog synths. Don't know the price for this Yamaha, sound great but for me too cold, no life in the sound. Thanks for the video❤

[@synthmaniak]

Thanks for sharing!

[@synthmaniak]

Yes, It has simple but effective sequencer, since last two OS updates.

[@keystar043]

Sounding so good 👍 .. how can i get it sir please let me guide Thanks ☺

[@luizsongs]

great video, can you specify the sounds you demostrated? specially the first ones at 2:50 +- 3:40

[@synthmaniak]

I don't remember exact the sound names but, few those sounds they are from factory. The view other sounds demonstrated re combination of my samples and factory sounds.

[@doordedeur]

Only the pros know why there is an added value of a real Montage to a ModX, or a Roland Fantom to a Fantom 0. The difference is not in the samples or the effects, but in the hardware. With a real Montage or Fantom you can cut through the mix in a band and with a ModX or Fantom 0 you can only wish.
