Yamaha Montage M (M6, M7, M8x) Synthesizer/Workstation | Demo and Overview with Nicholas Semrad

[@guitarcenter]

What do you think of the new Yamaha Montage M series? Let us know in the comments below! 👇

[@CRayBeats]

How is the build and material?

[@JMMinistries]

In My Honest Opinion as Someone who has been playing and touring with the Montage since its Release back in 2016 I’m a bit disappointed with this release! 😢 I was really hoping for Added Hardware Features Like Bluetooth Audio Streaming For Practicing, Bluetooth MIDI To connect To Other Devices Wirelessly. WiFi For Updating Software / Firmware Easily without the need of a Computer or USB. Also Dual or Stereo XLR / 1/4 in Combo Inputs Jacks for a Microphone 🎤 & XLR Balanced Outputs! Also a dedicated USB Audio Knob like on the MODX & MODX+. This seems more like a Software update at Most. I’ll stick with my OG Montage for another 7-8 years or until Yamaha gets it right or what the actual customers want!

[@Charlesbabbage2209]

Where is the sequencer and sampler? $5000 a pop and I can't sample a record or sequence a beat without being hooked to a computer?

[@JohnnyADi]

@@JMMinistries wifi and Bluetooth? Your expectations are beyond unrealistic. 99% of instruments and even Synths don't have these features. And for that audio knob, for my use case it's mostly a stationary setup and I find it's better to run all devices through my akai mpc x anyway. Plus I have a Korg Kronos and the mpc x for sampling and sequencing. The yamaha montage as specified by yamaha isn't a workstation, it's a synthesizer. A korg Kronos is a work station, I can assure you if their response to the montage m doesn't have the features you're asking for, then you really have some fantasy ideas for features on even flagship instruments from these prestigious brands that know how to make kickass instruments.

[@JohnnyADi]

@@Charlesbabbage2209 yamaha specifically mentions its a synthesizer and not a workstation. Get a korg if you want sequencing and sampling or a whole other system to do so. Even on my Kronos I prefer to use other methods of sequencing and sampling. All in one instruments with every feature simply don't exist. Yamaha does what it does best, kicked Roland's ass with this release of their own analog engine. And a nord? Just use the plug in they are creating for the montage m and use a komplete control s88 mk2, even with nords own sound library or better yet any other sound library, as nords isn't the best in the business. Use FX pedals like the meris lvx and the Empress effects zoia. Chase bliss pedals make these Synths more powerful than they could ever wish to be. And hardware daws like the akai mpc x eliminate the need to include all these things in these instruments to keep the piece and weight down. Also remember everything needs to fit in a 6X key form factor and not a 7X or 88 key. If you want an all in one instrument, make your own custom housing, and slam all the boards together.

[@stergiost.6246]

Nicholas is One of my top 3 keybordist for synth based parts... He is so talented and his playing ultra musical.If you add that he knows very well how to use and edit a synth,then the package is phenomenal~

[@garyfriedrick9941]

This is, by far the best presentation for an instrument I have ever seen. Thank you, Nicholas.

[@Bonamici]

Nicholas Semrad, what a treat to listen to!!

[@RikMaxSpeed]

Nicholas is an amazing musician!

[@The_Sonic_Oasis]

[@angelotheepianist]

Finally! I’ve been waiting all day for the demo, thank you Guitar Center!🙏🏻

[@js-sound]

Never trust Yamaha advertising agents! If you're not stupid, watch my videos about Yamaha synthesizers on my channel. Keep in mind that on my channel, KZbin heavily compresses the sound, but that’s not the point. I have a lot of truth about Yamaha, not the Yamaha advertising agent! Yamaha is on my black list!

[@Coowallsky]

Ignore js-sound. He’s a feckless Yamaha hater.

[@js-sound]

@@Coowallsky Don’t confuse a hater with an oppositionist or a person who reveals the facts and doesn’t lie to people, like the manufacturer himself lies to them. This is the big difference between me and others.

[@Coowallsky]

@@js-sound BWAHAHAHA! Calling yourself an “oppositionist” is like trying to put lipstick on a pig. You’re one of KZbin’s biggest whiners. Own it!

[@markusfuller]

I would have liked the polyphonic aftertouch on the m6 or m7 synth style keybed.

[@madness8556]

Why Yamaha deliberately left poly aftertouch off the unweighted versions is a very strange decision considering how much they already cost.

[@JohnnyADi]

This is the only real complaint I have. I guess my osmose will surfice for longer.

[@ChicoBlack]

Yamaha never disappointed Great keyboard, the best one so far.

[@js-sound]

Are you kidding? She has been disappointing every time for the last 30 years. And with each new time the disappointment becomes greater and greater. I am writing to you as a user of Yamaha synthesizers with extensive experience.

[@jord_ibe]

So why do you keep using their stuff?

[@js-sound]

@@jord_ibe I really like the AN1x because it was made by good people and there were no bad markerologists in Yamaha back then. I have modified Montage 8 and AN1X. I make super good presets. Sometimes I play by myself, but I have a daughter who trains to play the piano. That's why I have Montazh 8. I can say that the heavy keys in Montazh are good. But everything else in the Montage is not mine! Why don't I sell it? Because no matter where you look, even if the synthesis is good, there is always something that may not work: the keys, the presence of a fan (Kronos) or the fact that over time it will not be reliable or it will be necessary to tear down the operating system and install everything again. I would have taken Roland Fantom, but I’ll tell you why I didn’t take it! I am a sound designer, Fantom has only 512 memory cells for user presets. For me this is a limitation, otherwise both Kronos and Phantom are superior to Montage, both old and new. If I sometimes didn’t want to play with FM sounds, or do something special with sounds in presets, if I could have a piano at home for my child, which needs to be constantly tuned and placed 30cm from the wall, I would not have bought either Montage or Kronos neither Fantom. All this is not a pressing need like it was 30 years ago. As soon as my daughter leaves our house, I will sell Montage and forget about Yamaha for the rest of my days. Yamaha is a bad dream, with short moments about small advantages that are very insignificant to respect Yamaha for their current policy on digital synthesizers. Today, if we are talking about a workstation, it must have super sound from a linear output (which is what my Montage now has) or have ADAT, SPDIF. On board the workstation, like Roland and Korg, there should be a bunch of synthesis, a lot of memory, a lot of possibilities in terms of modulation, and the manufacturer should not skimp and do so that “I didn’t hear the wishes of the users, but they ask, give us this, give us that, but we won't do it anyway! We will remove the sequencer in the first Montage, and we will say that its implementation is not possible in software. Yes, this will be our lie, but such is life! And in the second Montage, we will return the sequencer to its place, everyone will clap for us clap your hands and say Yamaha is smart!" This is a vile practice and must be fought against. That's why I'm Donkey Hot who fights against the windmill.

[@JohnnyADi]

@@js-sound and you haven't given A SINGLE reason why it's dissapointing or why their other products are dissapointing. Your expectations are beyond reality just like most people that complain. Make your own instruments.

[@stephenbertino8373]

Nicholas is brilliant. That piece he demoed the felt piano with is gorgeous. I wanna hear the rest of it!!

[@drummerboy219]

Thank you for using real musicians not people demoing arpeggios the whole video! Sounds great!

[@Purrrelll]

Oh, you mean the Swedish youtubers, loopop, and all😂. Going off for a god damn midi controller on and on for 45 minutes.

[@TemmeSikkema]

Boy, what a great idea to invite Nick Semrad for the product demo. Such an inspiring musician. Love his sound design and his playing chops. On top of that he’s also a great presenter. Way to go. ❤

[@revp01]

Thanks for this awesome intro Nick Semrad; Thanks GC for getting him to do it. I’m impressed by the Montage M8X. Bravo Yamaha. You are listening and creating what we need. With the promise of a vsti version, The Montage M is very close to what I’ve wanted in a hardware workstation for a while. There is a lot to like here. A LOT! A few downsides I see are 1) the possible learning curve for those new to montage/modx workflow and 2) the limited physical outputs. The included 32x6 audio interface is great but only having 4 hardware outputs to route to somewhat limits the possibilities. I wish Yamaha would have went with the input/output options similar to Roland’s current Fantom. 6 assignable outputs plus cv gate outs is VERY handy for those who are blending hardware and software in live performance. Routing separate outputs is huge for FOH & monitor mixing.

[@ajotech]

WOW what an amazing out of this world demo thank you so much.

[@alienzardsketter.9076]

I Love Yamaha and you play wonderful , I like the one key press and increase the sound ,, and analog.that has been added ,,for more 1980's sounds ,, and guitar centers them folks are amazing ,

[@france4me117]

Super powerful monster and an absolute beauty to look at .... WOW! Simply breath taking xoxox Brilliant playing too. Let's hope Yamaha Genos will be also as outstanding as the new Montage line-up. Please Yamaha get the all new Yamaha Genos EX/2 this month as well as I have saved for it and ready to get it NOW

[@Resarchaic]

I was staying at Guitar center for 2-3 hours at a time, just playing on the m8x.. I just bought one instead finally.. Last week..its remarkable

[@tkat191]

I love Nic He's that dude!! His sound is super unique he's humble💯

[@m.t.t.m5714]

What incredible sound mixes, sound design and a great presentation of the synth - THANK YOU very much!!🤩👍👍👍

[@guitarcenter]

Glad you like it!

[@jas_bataille]

So they doubles the polyphony and added up to 128 elements? Basically they made this custom based on the basic requirements of Jacob Collier. Nice!

[@abhishekrao6017]

Yeah probably I guess 😅😂

[@mclekrell]

Works with all your 128 fingers!

[@bertpierey3655]

This is such a great machine.. im getting more and more drawn to it. Hard choice for my next one

[@areolaman]

I only used the felt in my Yamaha upright to avoid disturbing my neighbors lol. I thought that was what the felt pedal was for. I never thought it sounded good.

[@bhaveshmistry3255]

This workstation is so sensibly designed super user friendly and easy to use. Best part is it has lots of controller and that can be super useful for live and production work. Some people prefer to use touch screen and some prefer buttons it has both. Montage is already established and this one is perfect upgradable keyboard with minimal price increases and bunch of new sounds and unmatched control facilities. Love the ANX synth it sounds so fantastic. Overall it’s much better product then existing Montage and currently no other workstation can match to new Montage M series. Only thing I felt little bad that no polyphonic after touch on the 6/7 so surprised because now days musicians prefer portable products so obviously more selling keyboards are 6 & 7. I have a one question see if you know and you can answer me. My question is can II used Montage’s user sounds on this? Because this keyboard is way ahead than Montage so there must be so many changes in parameters and there are so many Montage users in the market and they can asked this questions. Nice demo…Love the keyboard. All the best to Yamaha and all the dealers for better business. Thank you 🙏 ❤

[@kiko1935]

I am very very curious to see more of the ANX engine - how you program on it, wave forms, PWM etc. Can you layer multiple parts for a detuned mega pad. Very curious.

[@js-sound]

Forget about AN1x in the new Montage. This is the same fake as FS1r and FM-X. The difference between these engines is like between the Opel Corsa (Montage with FM-X) and Lamborghini (FS1R is the best FM synthesizer). I have AN1X. It has cool filters, some of the best in all VA synthesizers, the filter sounds no worse than a bunch of analogue ones. Waveforms and a couple of goodies will be added to Montage, but it will in no way resemble a real AN1x engine. At the time when AN1x was being made, there were still smart people in this brand. Now there are only fucking marketers left.

[@petrikyto]

@@js-sound How do you know so much about cars?

[@js-sound]

@@petrikytoBecause I ride a bike! ,-) All jokes aside, Yamaha lost again. And only stupid people will buy this worthless synthesizer, which supposedly has at least something better. I’m silent about AN1X! What I hear with the AN1X engine is not AN1X! I won’t sell my AN1x, and prices for old synthesizers will only rise. Do you really believe that a company that has not released anything other than “sample playback” stations for 30 years after 30 years of stagnation will be able to repeat its old legendary synthesizers? It would be more likely to be Uli Behringer than Yamaha itself. Yamaga "fired" all the smart employees and hired “specialists” in the field of “sample playback.” There is no way they can repeat either FS1R or SY99 or AN1X. But I understand that it is more important for Yamaha supporters not to realize the fact of Yamaha’s insolvency, but what is more important is to have faith in Yamaha’s words. And Yamaha said “yes, we made AN1x, you'll get it guys!” And everyone unanimously believed her, as in everything else. With such fans, Yamaha stays afloat and stands in the same place and does not move from it. While people support Yamaha, its competitors are already investing money in innovations and developments that are much more interesting than a playback sample.

[@juanjaramillo1854]

How do the sounds of this board compare to those of a VST like Keyscape? Thank you to any answers

[@alancummings5651]

Awesome synthesizer.

[@bhaveshmistry3255]

Fantastic demo love your playing. New Montage is so amazing. ❤❤❤

[@EliveltonFagundesF]

It’s a great keyboard but I miss some things like some pads, phantom power to plug in a studio microphone, linear sequencer and a step sequencer. As Yamaha stated this is a workstation and having a step sequencer based on a tr-rec thing would be great for it’s price range.

[@lylemuskat8625]

You played the string orchestra sample. It sounded pretty good and you said you would use it to demo ideas but would get a real orchestra to do it in the end. So you obviously feel that this is not good enough quality for film where dedicated string libraries are. I’m debating getting this board, thanks for the review.

[@John007Jackson]

would love for someone like Andrew Mckain to play the board. He's a worship guy that plays with the flavor and style that I play in. His videos on the Montage accentuate sounds that are attractive to me. I love what you (Nicolas) have highlighted. that "sFz Tremolo BPM Sync" OMG and the realism, punch, sustain and clarity when you need it is awesome. The sound that took the cake for me is the "Composer Felt NS" wow, clean, subtle clarity is what I call it. crisp but has depth. wow . . . .

[@MoXyiD]

Played with it this morning at Chuck Levins - was SOOOOO cool! But I dont think I would upgrade from the original Montage - but it IS a great keyboard bed, too.

[@ruanof7]

The key bed on this M8 is amazing ! it is extremely similar to NORD 4. I played this at Guitar center but I ended up buying the M7 because of the giging weight. but for main stage the M8 would be best.

[@christopherpederson1021]

Action is better than Nord in my opinion

[@productamadeus8745]

[@christianthompson1473]

Dug into the specs. Nothing. and eventually found out by looking at downloads. Download USB audio driver for mac/pc here. So no class compliant audio here then?

[@ChrisP3000x]

No.

[@Mauroayuda]

This? Or Korg Nautilus (or Korg kronos 2)

[@liviou2004]

Except some Anx sounds, all I've heard here can be heard in the previous Montage. I don't see enough in this new version to get rid of my "old" Montage. I've got some so good extra libraries that this new Montage wouldn't add anything.

[@guillermo7224]

Absolutely amazing

[@Donetur]

The orchestral sounds are very good for a keyboard, still not as sound libraries but quite surprising and better than everything I have heard before in a keyboard, this sounds better than the Kurzweil PC3 in Orchestral it seems, at least judging by the strings and brass showed here. Synth sounds sound nice as well. Nice keyboard.

[@JohnnyADi]

Korg if you're willing to do some sound design despite the 128 polyphony sounds just as good if not better. Korgs old presets sound like garbage and don't actually do their sound engines justice.

[@Donetur]

@@JohnnyADi i own a Nautilus and the Orchestral sounds are not good. I don’t think they can improve too much with sound design, so I am not sure what samples you are talking about. In general, Korg is weaker than Yamaha in acoustic sounds. Korg shines in other areas IMO. Do you have examples?.

[@Donetur]

@@JohnnyADi in any case I don’t use keyboards for orchestral sounds, but sound libraries because they sound way better. I mostly work in my studio. I understand people who use them live tho.

[@JohnnyADi]

I need to trade in my montage 7 for one of these. Big question is how will Korg answer. The nautilus didn't add anything and is kind of like the yamaha MODX.

[@zzush]

Korg will come up with something good too ig

[@vinicius_anl]

The big problem with the Nautilus was the lack of physical buttons for live performances and the price. Here in Brazil, Korg keyboard prices are surreal. That's why I bought the MODX7+, as the cost is better, but I like the power that the Nautilus offers more.

[@JohnnyADi]

@@vinicius_anl I've got an 88 key Kronos. I honestly find most of the buttons and what not useless, sure they are convenient but usually I just use a knob or 2 and a switch pedal to go through presets. That new engine in the montage m is enough for me to want it over a dedicated roland jupiter xm though. Remarkable stuff by yamaha.

[@vinicius_anl]

@@JohnnyADi I understand, I even thought about opting for a foot controller to improve the MODX7+ timbre changes and not depend so much on the physical interface of the keyboards in general. I think I'll stick to this idea even if the MODX has physical buttons for live control. I want to upgrade to an 88, but everything is very expensive. The Roland RD2000 is my target at the moment. Thanks for your feedback.

[@madness8556]

Where's the dedicated YC drawbar organ emulations Yamaha?

[@PeterC-kc1ne]

Since I tried the EX5 epiano sounds with FDSP at a friends studio, I wanted to buy one. Hearing about the new Montage series made me wait patiently, but to my surprise I find the sounds of the new series underwhelming. Call me crazy, but I find the sound of the EX5 more pleasing. Or lets say, certain sound categories: besides the amazing epianos (amazingly good sounding attack transients, while the montage attack sounds as hard as usual). I also somehow like the pianos more (how they integrate in a mix). Also some of the pad sounds of the EX5 sound much better to my ears.

[@jamesmorelandoliver8897]

As a songwriter in a classic ballad style I am searching for an instrument with convincing instrument sounds, guitar, strings, sax, horns, etc., and an easy to use 16 track sequencer. I guess the more off the wall sounds and modulations of sounds don't really mean much to me since I'm more interested in natural band and orchestra instrument sounds. Can someone tell me if this would be a good fit for me? I am used to using a Korg Triton Studio sequencer which has a step sequencer in addition to the regular sequencer that records what you play. I want to build songs one instrument sound at a time, but natural instrument sounds rather than synth sounds. I would like to be able to create a convincing jazz quartet sound, piano, up bass, acoustic drums and sax, and then sweeten a bit with strings. But I do want the highest fidelity and most convincing instrument sounds available. Is this the right keyboard for me? Thanks for any advice.

That being said, if I'm ordering one of these bad boys, I want to talk to a real person who can confirm that's indeed the case. For the kind of money these things cost, not having a sequencer would definitely be a huge 'no go' for me.
