Yamaha MX49 49-Key Keyboard Production Station

Yamaha MX49 Music Synthesizer 49 Keys

MX49 is a 49 key music synthesizer which combines Motif XS sounds, USB Audio/MIDI connectivity and advanced DAW/VST controller features at a groundbreaking level of affordability.

Over 1000 Sounds from the MOTIF Series

The MX series contains more than 1000 Voices derived directly from the world famous Yamaha MOTIF XS series. From realistic acoustic sounds like piano, electric piano, strings and drums to complex 8-element synth sounds, the MX has all of your favorite Motif XS Voices right at your fingertips. The MX even has a streamlined interface for instant hands-on selection of all those great Voices. The newly designed category selection makes it easier than ever to find the Voice you need. You can even edit and store your own sounds right onboard.

VCM Effects

MX synthesizers come equipped with VCM effects, which simulate vintage effectors at the circuit level. The?sounds of the ‘70s are brought back to life, through simulating the hard-to-find vintage sounds of equalizer, flanger, phaser, and wah effects introduced by the keyboard legends of the era.

Easy Split /Layer Performance Mode for Instant Inspiration

Performance Mode on the Motifs has always been the place to find instant inspiration and the MX is no different. You can easily combine two Voices to play on the keyboard using the dedicated Split and Layer buttons each with their own intelligent arpeggiator and a dedicated Part for a drum track to create evocative Performances that feel like a whole band is playing. The 128 Performances on the MX are all user editable, but come programmed with the latest club friendly grooves.

user editable, but come programmed with the latest club friendly grooves.16-Part Multi Timbral and 128-note Polyphony

Each Performance contains not only the three sounds described above, but all the settings for a complete 16-Part Multi setting for play. You can switch between any of the 16 Parts without the sound cutting off. With 128 notes of polyphony there are plenty of notes to play even the densest sequences from your DAW. These features make the MX the perfect tone generator solution for live performance and live playback of DAW MIDI tracks.

Bi-directional USB Audio/MID Interfacing

But the MX doesn’t just control software DAWs and VSTs. Just connect a USB cable to your computer and you can monitor all the sounds from your computer via the headphone output of the MX or listen to your DAW tracks by connecting the MX to external studio monitors or PA gear. The audio converters on the MX are made for professional music applications so everything on your computer, even games, will sound better when using the MX as the output. The MX interface is bi-directional so you can record the internal sounds of the MX directly to your computer, without ever going to the analog domain, for the highest possible quality.

Features:
  • Over 1000 sounds from the MOTIF series
  • Equipped with VCM effects
  • Easy Split /Layer Performance Mode for Instant Inspiration
  • 16-Part Multi timbral and 128-note polyphony
  • Extensive Hands-On controls for VSTs and DAWs
  • Bi-directional USB Audio/MID interfacing
  • A complete suite of music production software included
  • A lightweight design with a quality Yamaha keyboard
  • Complete analog and digital connectivity

Extremely Lightweight & Powerful, January 9, 2013
By 
DW (chicago, IL) – See all my reviews

This review is from: Yamaha MX49 49-Key Keyboard Production Station (Electronics)
Yamaha are essentially clearing out the Motif series with the MX49 (and MX61). This super lightweight keyboard packs a tremendous amount of power. There are over 1100 quality sounds on this little guy. Everything you could ever need from pianos, organs, strings, brass, woodwind, syns, percussion, ethnic, SFX, etc. The Roland TR-808 kit is very realistic as is the Yamaha CP-70 electric grand piano. It even comes with Steinberg CuBase AI6 software DVD.

It blows away Korg’s MicroStation and anything by Roland. I felt guilty about paying so little for this beast.

Incredible punch from a small keyboard, April 2, 2013
By 
New Mexico Trekie – See all my reviews

This review is from: Yamaha MX49 49-Key Keyboard Production Station (Electronics)
Just got this MX49 2 hours ago and it’s all ready for live play. Easy to edit voices (part parameters), then create performances (layering). What a commanding sound coming from an 8 1/2 pound, 49 key keyboard!! I’ve also transferred all the internal performances off my Roland Fantom X6 to my PC – loaded them onto a USB Flash drive – to play through the MX49. Incredibly easy to scroll through the list of external WAV files when flash drive is inserted. Highly recommend this keyboard for any level of musician – whether you’re a beginner, or advanced.

Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
This review is from: Yamaha MX49 49-Key Keyboard Production Station (Electronics)
The quality of this synth is excellent. The MOTIF sounds are AMAZING as well. The only thing that got to me was the price. Outside of the inclusion of the MOTIF sounds, I don’t really see any justification for the 0 price tag. Even 0 would have been fine. Further, the price jump from this MX49 (key) to the MX61 (key) is 0! 0 for 12 extra keys? Who set the pricing on this device? Clearly something is not right with the pricing. The little display was also scratched up, though I’m not docking a star for that because they are not visible when the display is on.
