Yamaha MOXF Demo and Instructional Video

gospelmusicians.com/
Imagine having all of Jamal's sounds and samples stored in your keyboard to use for live church service or a gig. Jamal's Flash is the best of all of the classic gospel and urban sounds. You get all of the Neo-Soul sounds with the suitcase, stage, and wurli. You get the classic staple gospel tones of the MKS-20 Piano module (Piano 1, Piano 2, EP 1, and EP 2). You get two of the most flavorful pianos from AcousticSamples (KAWAI Grand Piano and A-Piano). We chose these two pianos, because they are so rich and full of character, which will make your Motif sound like a real piano. Finally, we have added the phattest brass and synth horn sounds that are sure to inspire you.
We have also added some amazing strings to stack and layer with everything. We also brought back the Jazz Piano and the Power Grand from the Yamaha Motif Classic.
The entire User 1 from A through H is filled. That makes for 128 patches full of brand new sounds that are bread and butter staples for live gigging.
Think about your live gigging experience. You need inspiring pianos and electric pianos. You need beautiful strings and crazy phat synth horns/brass sounds to layer and stack. This is the ultimate "bread-and-butter" sound-set for all live musicians. You'll never get sick of playing these sounds.
As a bonus we are offering urban an gospel click tracks embed into Performances for you musicians who have to do it all. We have Performances that have the bass split, with synths and horns so you can can run a complete church service by yourself.
*Note: XS users will not get the patterns or the gospel click tracks in performance mode. Only the user preset banks in voice mode are included for XS users. We also do not offer support for the XS as this is an older unit. We only offer technical support for the XF and MOXF.
*MOXF Users: MOXF users will not have the Patterns loaded into Pattern mode; however, the patterns will be available as arpeggios and MOXF users WILL get the click tracks embeded into the user Performance presets.

I’ll always hold Jamal Hartwell in high regards. I’ve been watching his videos since I started playing keyboard. Over ten years later, I’m still learning from his content. Such a blessing!

[@pcuimac]

Did something happen to him?

[@brentduanefoster]

I was already sold on the MOXF 8. This video just increased my excitement!!!

[@DonaldWaughmusic]

Thanks for your review. I pickup one yesterday and I am loving it. The Yamaha MOXF8 is amazing. Blessings!

[@HayAuj]

I keep coming back to this video just to see Jamal's expressions when he plays. Ha! Hope i can smile that great when i perform!

[@marchangel7462]

Just smile, it's not hard

[@Ejstar89]

Great video! I can't wait to hear the sounds!

[@devon3171]

God bless you Jamal! That intro was heavenly!! Please do a breakdown of that intro! Thanks and blessings again!

[@lavibuniak]

man, you play and I melt... gonna get back to practice piano

[@jmpianoboy]

Brother, thank you for your wisdom and knowledge. May God keep blessing your ministry always. The MOXF6 just might be my next gigging keyboard, the price is just awesome!!!!! Thanks again for the very detailed info especially knowing that this keyboard is also a USB audio interface instead of good old FireWire. God bless.

[@gabek9037]

Got this keyboard awhile back and I'm loving it. Still trying to figure out how to learn all the ins and outs if it though haha.

[@AlexandreWastable]

The chords that you're using at the beginning are so beautiful ! :)

[@KariFilpus]

That was very thorough and useful demonstration. I think that opened my eyes for what's important and what's not. Thank you very much for your video:).

[@originalfallinggirl]

Gorgeous playing

[@The1curiousgeorge]

You answered a lot of my questions in this one video. Thank you.

[@JDclk]

Man I agree with you 100% about the weighted key opinion! I been wanting this board forever! I'm buying a studio bundle for it hopefully around early December.It'll be my very first personal owned motif sound engine keyboard.I an VERY excited for this...oh and the Playstation 4 too! lol

[@RouRamirezMixingServices]

Great review, thank you man. greetings from Mexico

[@stefieannmusic]

WOOO! im glad i bought this keyboard!

[@joshuanedd4585]

Jamal bro we need you to do an instructional video on the new Yamaha MODX

[@clem5251]

Bought one about a week ago and I love it the hammer action has grown on me . I still have my s90es although I love the feel of the es the feel of the keys moxf seem a little more expressive and thank you as I also have another interface and was wandering aloud using both at the same time one which is FireWire and the moxf USB so thanks for clarifying.i will pick up your flash when it becomes availible and thanks again brah!

[@MARLONMUSICCHANNEL]

I just got the MOXF8 last month and I’m loving it! Thank You for inspiring musicians like myself. God Bless You My Brother!

[@AirplaiTv]

Congrats again bro. I am also inspired by Jamal. Amazing player and human being.

[@criskeys14]

Congrats brother!!! Jamal is an georgeous player and a better person. I'm also getting the MOXF8 next month!!!

[@AirplaiTv]

@@criskeys14 Enjoy it. It's a very deep keyboard. You may want to spend some time in the manual.

[@criskeys14]

@@AirplaiTv yes, I will. This keyboard needs a deep overview, because of the profesionality on there

[@JonesyTheCat]

How do you guys compare it to MODX? Thinking to get MOXF mainly for acoustic instruments nd the onboard controls. God bless.

[@rioflores8815]

I really like this guys style.. I wish him much success, his videos actually made me want to perfect my music craft.. Cheers

[@GospelMusicians]

Thanks Mario Flowers

[@shaynefernandez7145]

Thanks for sharing brother! Love your videos, God Bless

[@datwasdope]

Thanks bruh. Tell Yamaha that they sewed into you, and after watchin' this video (and the unboxing).. ..influenced my purchase decision. Got one last night; the 88. And yeah, you were on point with the weighted action. Good lookin' G. Gopel Rap now has a new paint brush.

[@ThiagoRaposo]

Greetings from brazil man!

[@viniequinox]

Very enlightening your video, thank you! Congratulations! Does it offer the 8 elements per voice? Has the resonance effect for sympathy as in the Nord or just resonance on the pedal?

[@Bibuxo1]

Muito bom Jamal, sou teu fã!

[@tentuxboy]

Mr. Jamal, could/would you do a comparison video of the Roland FA to the Yamaha MOXF? I am having a lot of difficulty determining which of these two boards I need for worship music/home sequencing? It seems that the FA may have better functionality, but I absolutely love the MOXF sounds (much more so than the Roland).

[@jsulmeyer]

Hi Jamal - thank you for this great video. Have you played the newer Yamaha MODX8 and, if so, how do you like it compared to the MOXF8? Do you prefer one over the other?

[@solomonjonesakl]

Hi Jamal ! You are doing a great job,Blessing to many..God bless you! I have got two questions; 1.I want to know how to cut sustain to the left bass when you split, 2.Can you share your personal tones,combs and samples?

[@marywhore1]

Can you make an in depth video on its sequencing? It's the selling point for me. Cant find any videos on that. I'm deciding between the motif xf6 and this one based on sequencing mainly.. Thank you

[@Maestromjpro2000]

I own a yamaha mm6 which was a gr8 buy 4 years ago. In church I'd like to expand but everything is budget. I'm debating between a macbook or moxf8

[@anthonylascano2378]

The key is a sound that is timeless

[@VictorVertiz]

Excellent video Jamal! Would you talk about the Yamaha mx61, please? Blessings

[@AlexOnBass]

Can't wait to get this flash! If you dont mind me asking, what software do you use to edit your videos for split screen?

[@wilky55]

I was one of the first people in England to get the MoXF8. Having previously owned the Mo8 this blows it away in sound quality as it has 8 elements and 128 note polyphony . The main reason I did not upgrade to the motif XS or XfF is that as a pianist I need 88 keys and they were to heavy for one person to carry, this is light weight and as short as you can get in a 88 key version due to the pitch and modulation wheels being above.

[@taongatee231]

Hello Bro are you gonna a review of the MODX ? Blessings

[@LuiggySantiago]

Hi Jamal, great video! Question, if I made a Performance, Master setup or Voice in my XF, I can load in the Mox?

[@jimburke963]

One more question about the expandable memory, Besides adding the pay for sounds that are available, is the memory used to store your own created sounds that are manipulated on the MOXF? Are those "home made" sounds saved and stored on the expanded memory?

[@HowardPain]

Thanks Jamal. I got the MOXF8 last tuesday, and are so happy! Have used your sounds for Kontakt 5 for some time, and are really looking forward to have them inside the MOXF - and let the macbook and babyface stay home :) Hope you make both 1024 and 512 versions to buy. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@jebarajsamuel]

hi Jamal, could you suggest a good amplifier to check and buy for the MOXF 8 keyboard. I am from India...your videos are really good, ...hope to hear from you, thanks...

[@curtissii]

Jamal, Thanks for being the blessing you are to all of us! I've been following you on youtube for several years now. It's been a true blessing. I'ts been prophetically spoke over me a few times now that I need to record a CD. I've been mostly a live player. I have a yamaha digital piano at home as well as the MOXF6. I'm kinda new to the recording/computer thing, however I am computer savvy, PC or MAC. What do you recommend I do to get started as far as sounds, equipment, laptops, etc.? I'm not a millionaire, so I just need a decent setup to get me started. What do you suggest? Thanks for your help....(or anyone else out there who can answer this...thanks!)

[@GospelMusicians]

Definitely get a Mac!

[@nodictature]

Great work 👏 👍 I play acoustic piano and i like to move to keyboard piano I like to create I'll appreciate which keyboard you recommend to buy

[@Jqau]

Thanks Jamal...question... Does the MOXF8 have any Samba feels or other Latin beats in its performance modes? Thanks for all of the info.

[@brandons8241]

Great video! I have purchased this keyboard and NEED a video explaining how to enable the keyboard to receive MIDI signals from the iPad apps. The apps would in theory alleviate the lack of sliders but communication between the devices is not being made. PLEASE HELP

[@WatchDwight]

Very helpful. I've always been fascinated with my friends who have Nords, but the default sounds I find are no where near the Moxf. I was looking at the Nord, but after watching this I'm looking to purchase this keyboard probably within the next week. lol

[@coachAdam75]

Always appreciate your videos.... I'll finally have the opportunity to sit down a play with my MOXF6 today. Unlike the Krono's, the sequencer of the MOXF is easy to use such as the ES, which is the last keyboard I purchased. Every Guitar Center I've walk in, no one knows how to operate the Krono's lol. To be honest, I based my decision from Jamal's unboxing of the moxf video, everything he said was enough for ME to make a sound decision. Money well spent :-)

[@GospelMusicians]

Now you got to get the Flash when I'm done!

[@descargamusicalny]

Cool stuff, I have question... Should I sell my yamaha cp33 and get this? I really like the Key bed and the sound of the cp33.

[@kapembwamwenya9933]

wow this so educative learning a lot sir God bless u

[@JamessEscobarr]

Hello and thanks for your videos. Can i use the right part of the panel (the buttons that say part A-H and 1-8 to launch instruments but no recorded parts? I want to make live music with my band. Thank you

[@jonmac380]

bro, I love your playing, could listen to it all day..Are you still gigging with this mox??

[@JamesDalzell]

Nice Vid! I'm ordering my MOXF 8 tomorrow.

[@curtissii]

Okay great! Is Cubase or Ableton better? I have the lite version of both. Which one will be easier to use? Or, do you recommend something else. I am also gonna pick up that neo soul keys 3X from you...its smokin!!!!

[@michaelalexander8501]

Whats good, jamal? Can your patches be loaded permanently into the moxf soundset, or would the keyboard have to be connected to a computer to access the patches? love your chording, by the way!

[@ZakwanNafis]

Mantap bang....

[@slugware]

On the MOXF6 / MOXF8 Is it possible to load my own samples - let's say drum one shots - and load them and use them as a drum kit on that keyboard. For instance 50 drum one shots spread across the keyboard just like the factory drum kits ? Thanks for your videos!

[@ranaair]

Jamal, When are you coming to Europe again? I live in Switzerland and I would love to attend one of your workshops with Precious. Please let me know. Thanks and God bless.

[@00DirectorsCut00]

Hi :) I really like your videos ! Can you please post some smooth jazz piano chords progression you often use in your videos ? Thank you

[@leonmerrill6504]

I just got the yamaha mox8 Love it!! May not be a xf or moxf But it gets the job done :)

[@natalieacevedo55]

Does the Mox 8 have weighted keys ??

[@mike-anthonyfields]

I have a Yamaha S90XS, would I be able to load your sounds and church brass sound once your done editing them to my Yamaha?

[@valerian_andre]

Hi im really confused with the velocity curve setting in moxf i find the hard preset very favourable is it because tat im heavy handed or is it a good way to keep it as hard

[@ppsayl1235]

I have a Motif XF and just bought a Moxf for gigging and tracking. Like the Motif, can you hook up a mic and send the audio directly to your DAW? I know Motif uses Firewire 16 channel data xfer but the Moxf uses USB. Can you let me know if can still use a mic with the MoxF with USB technology? Thx. -Paul

[@88omarz]

Hey Jamal the sounds you were playing from your personal collection will those be available for sale, say via a flash card or so?

[@JeffreySaxophoneTallNewton]

I have your excellent iPad Neo Soul Keys. Do I have to buy the same soudns for use with the Yamaha MOFX? Thank you.

[@JJLo2]

What is you advise on the Yamaha Montage verses the Yamaha MOXF8

[@briansoule636]

Thanks for your excellent demo(s). Just want to share that, at 14:00, you mention the "Wal-Mart" plug. I'm pretty certain that these adaptor-type plugs are actually nicknamed "wall wart" because of their appearance when plugged into the wall outlet. Thanks again for your informative videos and God bless.

[@BernardRandsMusic]

I'm using midi controllers with Mainstage but I need another flagship with more sounds. I REALLY like being able to layer 8 sounds and controlling them in real time. I'm torn between the Moxf, Kronos, and curious about the Integra 7. Any suggestions???

[@ivanprusak5951]

Is Yamaha going to make or do they have a upgrade kit for the Motif XF from Firewire to USB? Changing the card to USB internally in the Motif XF

[@mrrusty1965]

I'm sold. Now should I trade in my S90ES or keep it for a stationary keyboard to replace my Baby Grand piano?

[@bakermandwb4]

Jamal, I noticed when you where in the Ep 2 on the MKSensation you moved the modulation wheel and the chorus came on, was that the original MKS chorus like the one on MKSensation? It didn't sound like it but maybe it's just my ears.

[@nelson0922]

does anyone know if the yamaha keyboards transition from one sound to the other or do you have to stop & then the sounds cut off then you go into another sound

[@GospelMusicians]

No transition. It just cuts off.

[@jazzybrown6496]

Hello Sir, I really need to ask you a professional question… It’s been many many years since I played a piano, I’m still in the beginning to intermediate playing… Since I’m not a church key board player, a professional, I’m looking to purchase a Yamaha GDX 670, what do you think about this keyboard as far a starting over, Or should I just invest in purchasing the Yamaha Moxf8 88 keys… However I will also need a amp to go along with this keyboard, please help…

[@Cyberman86]

I'm thinking to buy this MOXF8 or the Krome 88, which one would you recommend? and why? I use mainly Synths and Pianos.

[@jstyleent]

Hi Jamal, quick question. This is off topic, but i wanted to know what kind of video setup are you using to record yourself as well as your keyboard? Are you using an external camera connected to your computer? And are you using your webcam to record your face? Also are you using any type of audio interface or mixer to plug into the computer or camera? Thanks for your help.

[@MrIncred1ble92]

Man that Ep2 spoke to me!

[@donaldberry4733]

can you tell me how to load your sounds on the MOXF8 FLASH Bord from a stik that has your sounds or do you have a fLASH Bord that I I can order with the sounds on it I already had the keyboard before your video

[@krosstechguy3290]

sir jamal where can i download your patches? its already 2018 but im able to use this yamaha moxf6 on this coming december. god bless to you sir.

[@boynhood]

Question for you GospelMusician im getting ready to buy the MOXF 6 got the mox6 and after checking out your video its going back only had it 4 days didnt even take it out of the box lol really. When I buy your flash do i have to do anything to get it going just plug it in and its ready to go?

[@Artistimberlake]

sounds Good!

[@MarlandJ]

Is it possible to import motif es patches into mm8/mm6 or is the mm8/mm6 not compatible for the motif patches?

[@ccmajorgamer9922]

Ur videos have always been enjoyable with u playing I actialy prefer u playing in ur videos 👍🙌

[@walkerma11]

so u cant load sounds on the mox8? also, what is a nice amp for church services and gigs for the mox8? I have heard the roland kc550. is tht a good amp?

[@markjaylandes]

Jamal, great playing and sounds on your Flash!! But do you offer B-3 organs? If not, do you recommend the B's Knees?

[@PRIMOiPhoneMod]

Which lesson should i buy on your website to play like you played at the beginning of the video?

[@beaknewcomer3835]

hi we have a Yamaha motif fx 88 key keyboard and all I want to do is write simple songs using the drum and chord patterns that are already in the keyboard with maybe about five tracks of instruments. I find it very difficult to try to figure it out is there any good videos on just how to write a basic song? any help would be great! ☺

[@kalebclemmons7080]

How would you hook up everything to update your keyboard. Would you get a flashdrive and install it to the keyboard

[@bakermandwb4]

Also, on the mox8 you can speed up the boot-up time by decreasing the splash screen display time in the settings (I forget exactly where in the settings but I know its there)...don't know if thats true for the moxf8 or not but you might try it.

[@GospelMusicians]

Oh wow...Good point! I'll look into that!

[@jocan6666]

Bella tastiera, belle mani amico mio! vorrei studiare con te!!!!!

[@mproductionsmusik]

Its all the same path but does it sound the same (sound quality) when recording in the DAW via USB and Audio Out.... Or the XF6 audio resolution is better...

[@instrumentalistjade8367]

hi. i have an 88 key keyboard already. so is it ok ill just get the moxf6 instead of the moxf8? so that if i need the weighted key ill just midi it in? coz my 88 key is a great keybed.

[@antonioandradesantos801]

Hi! A question, can you compare the sounds of moxf6 with montage? Is there any diference?

[@CJeffers]

Great sounds Jamal. Will you be making those synths available for the the Motif XS?

[@GospelMusicians]

Possibly...But I only plan on supporting the XF's.

[@thesexiboy100]

hai jamal, 'm your biggest fans,, ... from indonesia

[@JohnChandler2006]

I know it's been a while...BUT...Is it possible to connect a Korg NanoKontrol2 midi conroller to adjust the volumes of 4 layered voices????

[@Dabish66]

jamal i would like to ask what is your thoughts on the yamaha,MOXF as far as being in the church

[@non-youtuber]

as my christmas present 🎁 I'm getting the Yamaha MOXF6

[@timweakley9046]

Hi. You mentioned that you were going to be selling these boards. Give some type of time frame and price point with the flash and sounds you spoke of. I bought the uvi soul keys from you. Love um.

[@JayOneAlumni]

VERY important question as i may buy this. Do all these sounds come with the mox6? and also can you use dual soundcards like you do with the x6? Thanks a lot man.

[@GospelMusicians]

All of these sounds DO NOT come with the MoXF6 as these are custom sounds we created, so you would have to purchase. The MOXF can only use one Flash Board and not two like the XF.

[@descargamusicalny]

Can I make my own custom drum kit with samples and load it into the flash memory? I have my own samples set in my triton extreme, can I transfer those wav samples into the moxf so I can use them in sequences? Please respond

[@michaelknight9985]

Yeah, you should be able to make your own custom drum kit. But you would have to make this sample from your triton, or from a daw. Because the MOXF doesn't allow you to make samples, but you will be able to load your sample onto the flash board in your MOXF.

[@anthonylascano2378]

A finger style electric bassist is timeless

[@D1NonlyKoko]

Hello Jamal! I just wanted to ask, does this keyboard allow you to adjust the touch sensitivity of the keys?

[@GospelMusicians]

Yep..

[@donoventribble1636]

+GospelMusicians What do you use to record video and audio the way that you do?
