After the highly successful DX series and Motif line, Yamaha reveals the next step in their synth line: the Montage

The Motion Control is a combination of:

Super Knob : a realtime controller that can manipulate multiple parameters simultaneously and can be even assigned to a secondary foot controller just in case you need both hands during your performance.

Motion SEQ : a tempo-synchronized, completely customizable control sequences that can be assigned to virtually any synthesizer parameter, Motion SEQ also have dedicated controls on the front panel making it easy to manipulate and change in real-time.

Envelope Follower : converts audio into a control source for control of virtually any synthesizer parameter.

AWM2 : With 128-Note stereo polifony, AWM2 is a Yamaha proprietary technology for data compression and sound playback, AWM2 allows tremendous data compression without sound quality loss for unparalleled, realistic sound reproduction. It has nearly 10 times the waveform capacity of the MOTIF XF and offers 1.75 GB of user flash memory with high speed reading/writing for your own custom samples or synth libraries.

FM-X : An highly sophisticated pure synthesizer engine capable of producing classic ‘80s or cutting-edge EDM sound with incredible dynamic range, power and fidelity. MONTAGE features an 8-operator FM architecture and 128-note polyphony, allowing for a massive array of sound design options.

MONTAGE features a huge range of incredible sounds like a brand-new Yamaha CFX Premium Grand Piano, a selection from the DX and TX family and an incredible Bösendorfer Imperial Premium Grand Piano. A high quality effect section is also available, with effects like Beat Repeat, Vinyl Break or Bit Crusher, classic Analog Delays and VCM Phaser and even Amp Simulators.

MONTAGE features professional balanced outputs with “Pure Analog Circuit” (PAC), that improves the quality of signal after being converted to analog from digital for clear harmonic reproduction and even frequency response.
