The MODX6 M: A war machine for the price and the weight!
I have just spent a few intensive days on my new MODX6 M and, frankly, I am amazed. If you are looking for a keyboard that does everything without needing a sound engineering degree or a subscription to an osteopath, this is the one for you.
What is striking as soon as you switch on is the quantity of pre-installed sounds. It's just freaky. We go through the categories and everything sounds: the pianos are deep, the pads are super wide and the new analog sounds of the AN-X engine provide incredible warmth.
You plug in, you choose a sound and you're ready to play. No need to rummage through complex submenus for hours to come up with something right. The screen is super intuitive, even for those who are new to this kind of workstation. As always with Yamaha, the sound is clean, dynamic, and fits perfectly into a mix, whether for stage or studio composition.
Although the modx M is a real featherweight, you can still feel the quality of manufacture.
The keys are really good quality. They respond well, with good resistance, which allows you to be super expressive, whether on a piano or a lead synth.
Even though it's easy to use, for those who like to tinker, it's an endless playground. Between the three synthesis engines, you can create unique and totally crazy textures.
Finally, when you look at the ultra-competitive price compared to what is available elsewhere (or even compared to its big brother the Montage M), the quality-price ratio is unbeatable. It is a professional but accessible investment.
In short, a huge crush!Automatically translated
