I've watched many mx88 demos. Few spend more that 10 seconds on EP and organ. They do a few acoustic piano sounds then jump to layering. 20 minutes later the viewer still hasn't heard much real sounds. So thanks for all the sounds.
When you're playing live the sound will cut off when you change you're voice tone unlike to the px560 it don't cut off but the sound on board are so good of this mx88
So you know about both the Yamaha MX88 and the Casio PX560? I'm set to buy the PX560. Should I check out the MX88 first? I really like all of the features of the PX560, especially the 256 note polyphony, the 5.3" color touch display, and the recording and editing options. But, listening to this, and having had some Yamaha keyboards that I really liked, I'm wondering if I should consider the MX88 as well. What's your opinion? Thanks
How do I configure the FC7 pedal to control the layer volume only? I want to be able to play the piano at full volume uncontrolled by the FC7 and bring in the strings with the volume pedal independently. Can someone please help me with this configuration?
I bought the MX88 about a year and 1/2 ago. Lots of great patches, and then a lot i never use. I also hat that the first 100 or so saved performances are no able to be removed. I would rather have those slots for my own performance setups. The Classic 74 Rhodes sound is great...except it has too much depth on the vibrato; however, I found a way to reduce the depth and the keys sound wonderful. I think it's a good buy for the money.
The video is good if you want to hear what the patches sound like, but I'm more interested in the other functions of the keyboard, eg. editing parameters, creating performances and other functions, especially since I just got my MX88.
Finally...the keyboard I've been looking for my entire adult life! Oh Yeah...I'm getting one...soon! Only problem now is I'll probably end up re-recording every piano & keyboard track on every one of my tunes...URG! Anyone want a P-255 in excellent condition?
@@georgejohnson7637 Thanks for the reply but ironically I just finished a project where I recorded one piano track using my P255, and via midi I mirrored a second piano track on my MX88, and also mirrored a third track thru my Motif sound module. This produced an enormously full piano sound. But during this undertaking I initially used the MX as the master but it just didn't feel quite right. So I switched it out for my P255 as the master and noticed the change right away. Now I know the keyboard platforms are basically the same and whether or not I just have more miles on my P255 is any ones guess, but my fingers were happier with the P255, and I finished the project successfully. So I'll be keeping my trusty P255 after all, not to mention as proved on this project, I have so many more options. BTW... I am STILL dealing with the repair issue and it has become a nightmare! Yamaha is giving it a second look and now considering replacing it with a new unit.
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Thanks for replying so quickly. Excellent videos. I think that the PX560 is closer to what I want. But hearing and watching you play the MX88 had me considering it. Nice work.
Hola, en este sintetizador se puede grabar las propias composiciones? E incluir voz propia? Y tener guardado, almacenarlo ? No soy profesional pero ya tengo un casio lk 215 desde hace 11 años y lo que me gusta es hacer mezclas y hacer composiciones. Y me gusta los sonidos den sintetizador. No sé qué modelo de yamaha podria ser. Sé lo básico de piano, perp deseo aprender más incluso en un sintetizador.
any studio monitors, on a cheaper side you can surely consider some Yamaha HS monitors, or Adam T series.. If you can invest more money look at Genelec or Adam (A series)
звуки рояля отличные, особенно с подкладами, но электро пиано очень глухое на демо, в миксе будет гудеть. Имею Ямаха Мотиф Классик, разница ощутимая в пользу Мотиф, хотя в Мотиф вдвое меньше полифонии (62) и волновой памяти (84 Мб)
I want a 88 key keyboard for my studio. I like the Yamaha S90ES & the MX88. Which should I get? They both sound great! I like the pianos on the ES better than the XS. But I like the MX pianos but are they the xs or the xf? I’m confused! Help!!😣
Hi thanks for the review! Have you tried the Arturia Keylab 88 Mk2? Ithink the Arturia may have better DAW integration and huge sound library in Analog Lab.. But maybe MX88 keybed slightly better and the Yamaha piano sounds nice... having problems to find a local shop to try both hands on...
Yes but the keylab 88 is only a master keyboard.. no sounds inside.. the mx88 is the 88 key version of mx line of synth from Yamaha.. totally different instruments
Great demo! Are you connecting the keyboard thru your audio interface, or directly to the computer via USB? If it's thru the interface, what cables are you using?
Tengo un S80 y suena muy bien trato de comparar y trae varios E. Piano creo que mejor que este.. Igual salidas entradas de audio... Porque yamaha no Cónservs todo eso en un mx88.. Mm?
Quiza dependa del amplificador que estes usando. Con el potenciometro al medio ya lo demas corre por cuenta del parlante aunque si esto no solucionara el problema, deberiar ir al servicio tecnico oficial de tu zona.
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB wow! I have a mx61. One problem is that I hear “clicking” for la k of a better term. Can I make edits to have a better sound or is it a speaker system issue?
Complimenti , molto bravo. A tuo avviso avendo la versione 88 i tasti pesati -simil piano - , e' possibile utilizzare questo synth per studiare musica classica (ho ripreso a suonare dopo tanti anni ed ho un' impostazione classica) ? Grazie mille
Ciao, grazie! Beh si non aspettarti la meccanica di un vero coda, diciamo che è un buon compromesso peso/costo/meccanica per avere una meccanica migliore e più pianistica bisogna salire di range nei synth o puntare a stage piano che sono sicuramente strumenti più mirati in quell’ambito
Great video! Would you mind please sharing how you recorded the audio for this video? Were you mixed into a DAW or was this straight from PA speakers into your video recorder, etc. Thank you!
Hi, like all my videos, i've connected the instrument directly into the audio interface, recorded in a daw (no matter what daw you use), after the recording, i've only balanced the volume of any sounds (no other audio processing) and it's done! after that, i've exported the wav file and merged with video
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Are there special features in DAWs that allow for easy or auto "merging" or synching the wav audio with the associated video. I've only used Audacity and Wavosaur, so I suppose an upgrade to another DAW might be necessary. Anyway, I'm pretty unskilled regarding using a DAW. Just doing simple tweaks and edits. I synched some wav audio with a video once, but I did it manually by matching a note I hit right before recording. Then I had to fiddle with it for a while before it looked right. I'm thinking that there must be a better way. Thanks
Wow, this is *so much worse* than what Kurzweil can do in terms of orchestral sounds. A similarly priced Kurzweil PC3 sounds like a Hollywood movie. The Motif sounds like a Nintendo 64 game...

Get a korg nautilus 88.
Majestic sounds on this piano
Thanks for sharing, the sound is pretty close to the P120 sound, which is a bit limited for Rhodes and Hammond.
Do these feel as good as the MOTIF
Thank you very much .. great talent and music Merci beaucoup .. grand talent et musique 🙂✨🎼🎵🎶
2:16 what mode was that on cause i love that one!!
what setting for your mx88 frequency range? because your sound is better than mine, even though is the same keyboard
Um dia eu vou ter um desses

tiene algun video de como manejar los sonidos del yamaha mx 88?
Nice demo and playing. Thanks. How does this keyboard compare to the Casio PX560?
Totally different instruments.. the mx is a synth and the px is a stage piano. Different function inside! You need a synth or a stage piano? ;)
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Thanks for replying so quickly. Excellent videos. I think that the PX560 is closer to what I want. But hearing and watching you play the MX88 had me considering it. Nice work.

waiting for part 2!!!!!
it's coming! ;)
Waiting part 3!
does this have speakers built in? or does it need to go through a KB amp?
Hi! No speaker inside!;) you can connect it into an audio interface and studio monitors or a mixer with speakers
What is the preset starting at 1:24?
Esses timbres são muito bonitos!!!
What is a good speaker to use with the MX88?
any studio monitors, on a cheaper side you can surely consider some Yamaha HS monitors, or Adam T series.. If you can invest more money look at Genelec or Adam (A series)
Thanks a lot for your response. I will check these all out. @@DKS-SYNTH-LAB
hello
all the songs is come by the piano default and the pad and strings?
DO You not use extra pad on cumputer
All sounds are factory presets, no external sounds ;)
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB thankss i thinks i going to buy that keyboard it has good sounds
Can this keyboard make/produce tracks internally?

OK thanks!
Valdría la.pena cambiar de un psr910 a este sintetizador?
If you need a synth yes, if you need an arranger keyboard no ;)
HI, great video. How did you get to that sound in minute 2:35?
Hi! All sounds used are factory presets 😉
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB I appreciate that. But I cannot find that sound. Do you know which one or combination it is? Thanks!
Great demo! Are you connecting the keyboard thru your audio interface, or directly to the computer via USB? If it's thru the interface, what cables are you using?
Hi, the keyboard is directly connected into audio interface via audio (main out from mx into input 1-2 of audio interface)

Sir what will you choose between mx series and xps-30? is there difference in their sounds? especially on piano part?
Totally different.. if you need a better piano sound, choose a modern synth/workstation. Between xps-30 and mx i prefer mx, the 88 is the best option
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Thank you Sir! :)
Which is best, MOXF or MX?
Moxf ;)
Can you upload patches to this thing like the Virus ti?
If you find patches for this synth yes!;)
Este teclado tiene volumen muy bajo.?
Es decir envía poca señal?
Quiza dependa del amplificador que estes usando. Con el potenciometro al medio ya lo demas corre por cuenta del parlante aunque si esto no solucionara el problema, deberiar ir al servicio tecnico oficial de tu zona.
Are all this custom or factory patches ?
I bought this Keyboard but i'm very disappointed , because only 2 Layers ! But that said ' he had very good sounds
There's a video with 4 layers
Hermoso
What sound is that @2:18 please..nice demo
80's Boosted
My mistake, it's called 80's Layer
Are those factory sounds? Did you tweak the piano?
factory sounds
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB wow! I have a mx61. One problem is that I hear “clicking” for la k of a better term. Can I make edits to have a better sound or is it a speaker system issue?
un giusto compromesso.
com'è il tasto?
solito tasto standard medio gamma di yamaha... esattamente la stessa di MOXF8
I got a new piano from best choices products with headphones and microphone.

Nope ;) cp88 is much better (but different instrument)
No lo creo, son categorías diferentes además que el CP88 es mejor en construcción y en teclas
MX is better than MODX??
No, mx is the cheapest synth of the series: Montage -> Modx -> MX
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB MODX series are the cheap option for MONTAGE... MX series are the cheap option for MOTIF XS.
Wow, this is *so much worse* than what Kurzweil can do in terms of orchestral sounds. A similarly priced Kurzweil PC3 sounds like a Hollywood movie. The Motif sounds like a Nintendo 64 game...
because Pc3 is a top level synth, this is an entry level... you need to compare a pc3 to a Montage or Motif XF not to an MX
