DISC Yamaha MOXF8 Synthesizer Keyboard

Full Description

Sound Engine

Yamaha have equipped the MOXF8 with some of the most comprehensive sounds available. The sound engine used is the MOTIF XF system. This unique system produces over 1000 voices in stunning professional quality. The range of tones available allows musicians to take the MOXF8 to studio or live sessions with the confidence that they have the appropriate equipment. The standard included sounds feature Clavinovas, grand concerts and uprights, as well as organs. The MOXF8’s more experimental sounds allow musicians to add texture to pieces, with an on-board sequencer and looper for building songs. The MOXF8’s 741MB of sounds allow you to never stop exploring.

Bundled Software

The MOXF8 is ideal as your home studio’s workstation. The software includes a bespoke MOXF editor for tweaking parameters and enhancing VST instruments. By doing this, you can adjust each instrument to fit your specific requirements. The Cubase AI 8 DAW has been engineered to integrate with your MOXF8’s functions whilst still being compatible with the popular Steinberg software. All of these functions can be readily accessed by the keyboard’s interface.

Lightweight, Responsive Keyboard

Gigging musicians value an instrument that is easy to get to a venue, and reliable once there. The MOXF8 weighs just over 11KG, making it easy for carrying to and from gig venues. The 88 keys offer you the maximum range, which is suitable for musicians who don’t want to compromise their performance. This model’s GHS keyboard has an authentic response to your unique playing style. The progressively weighted keyboard is familiar to musicians who play acoustic pianos. The MOXF8’s robust outer design makes it ideal for frequently gigging or session musicians.
