Yamaha Montage M8X

Yamaha Montage M8X - the iconic Yamaha synthesizer of the latest generation. Create stunning sound with its three generators that recreate warm vintage analog synthesizers, next-generation FM synthesizers, and ultra-realistic instruments. The Motion Control Generator enhances these capabilities, adding a unique fourth dimension of control for music creation.

Unlike traditional hardware synthesizers, the MONTAGE M8x seamlessly connects stage and studio workflows with computer connectivity and integration. For pianists seeking weighted action on the 88-key keyboard and for those desiring expressive polyphonic aftertouch, the MONTAGE M8x introduces a new era of sound, control, and workflow in musical creation.
