Yamaha Motif XS6 Synthesizers

 
 
 
The Yamaha Motif XS6 Synthesizer is an amazing piece of equipment. I can't believe the sound that comes out of this thing. It's a joy to play. Starting with just the simple parts - the 61 touch sensitive keys with initial touch and after touch are so smooth.

There's over 1,000 voices available, plus 64 drum kits. There are four musical arpeggiators with over 6,000 phrases. Even if you never got around to mixing and sampling, there's plenty here to keep a musician busy and inspired.

But of course you will get around to mixing and sampling. And on the Yamaha Motif XS6, you can spend a very long time doing that, before you reach the end of all this keyboard has to offer. The integrated sampler combines audio and MIDI recording. You can record as you play, trying out different motifs, slipping in any of the arpeggio phrases, and have it all captured to edit later, as you've discovered what worked and what didn't.

 



And it will all sound so natural, with the Expanded Articulation tone generation system. You can make sounds that have always been hard to create on electronic instruments, like key release sounds, and staccato and legato techniques. With the Yamaha Motif XS6, it won't sound like you're playing an electronic keyboard.

Of course, it is pricey, and if you're not willing to put the time in to really discover all this keyboard offers, you won't get your money's worth from it. You'll have to study the instrument. But isn't that what a musician's supposed to do? Devote some time to the Yamaha Motif XS6 Synthesizer, and you'll be rewarded with years of beautiful sound and amazing inspiration.
