Yamaha MODX8 88-Key GHS Action Synthesizer
SKU: VFC7460
For the piano player needing a piano-focused instrument with a huge variety of sound, MODX is a synthesizer with an 88-note, weighted keyboard action. MODX has over 125 years of Yamaha piano-making craftsmanship coupled with over 40 years of creating industry-leading synthesizers.
SOUND
Sound is the most important aspect of any instrument. The power of the MODX synthesis engine allows unlimited potential to create your own unique sound demanded by any artist.
The MODX sound engine is based on the same technology powering the flagship MONTAGE: AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2) sample and synthesis engine and a pure FM-X (Frequency Modulation) synthesizer modernized for amazing sound playback and complex sound design.
192-NOTE TOTAL POLYPHONY
MODX features 128-note stereo AWM2 polyphony and 64-notes of FM-X polyphony. Due to the unique architecture of MODX and MONTAGE, this polyphony is always available without latency or compromising other features.
EFFECTS
From high definition reverbs to incredibly detailed Virtual Circuit Modeling (VCM) effects, MODX is loaded with DSP innovation, power and, most importantly, sound quality. Use effects like Beat Repeat, Vinyl Break or Bit Crusher to get EDM sound. The Spiralizer effect creates the auditory illusion of a tone continually rising or falling in pitch without getting higher or lower.
You can even add a compressor with sidechain for a modern “ducking” effect. Or go retro with vintage effects like Analog Delay, VCM Phaser or a variety of Amp Simulators. Piano players will appreciate piano-focused effects like Damper Resonance for a super-realistic piano experience and the HD reverbs that let you put yourself in any performance space.

Other
We are an actual, physical, brick and mortar music store. We do have a warehouse that we ship from but generally speaking, when you buy from us online is just like coming into our store and selecting your instrument off the rack. Before we ship any instrument we thoroughly inspect, setup, photograph and pack the item (sometimes in its original box - sometimes not as per our environmental policy). If your product shows any signs of having been used, we will contact you before shipping. Occasionally if we notice a scuff or scratch on an instrument, the price will be marked down as a result. Descriptions of the flaws aren't always in the product descriptions so if you have any questions feel free to ask us via chat on our website, email or phone.
Special orders, Used/Clearance/B-Stock/Sale items, opened/unsealed new vinyl records, books, instrument strings, microphones, headphones, USB Audio Interfaces, drumsticks, instrument polishes, reeds, brass and woodwind instruments & other similar products are non-returnable. (If a return of one of these items is approved by management, a restocking fee will apply)
* Credit Card Payment Processing Companies/Banks charge a variety of network & processing fees on every credit card purchase. They no longer refund these fees when a refund is processed so we have to pay it even if we refund an order. We are no longer able to absorb these charges and have had to pass this fee to customers when an order is refunded on purchases made in-store or online with a credit card. These Credit Card Processing Fees do not apply for refunds on purchases made with cash or debit.
PayPal and Affirm financing refunds are subject to a 5% Online Purchase Processing Fee. Processing Fees are waived when a refund is loaded onto a Faders eGift Card.
This policy applies to accidental & cancelled online orders as well.
** Restocking Fee of up to 15% may apply if the product or packaging has any damage or is missing items.
When we receive a return, we inspect and test the item out to make sure it is able to be resold. As long as the item itself is still in new condition and all the original packaging is intact and in new condition there will be no restocking fee.
*** Non-refundable shipping charges - the total cost of shipping (both ways) is non-refundable. The total actual shipping charges to & from your location will be withheld from any refunds.
If you have any questions please call us at (204) 571-0428, email us at info@faders.ca or message us directly here on our website. Details for in-store returns available here.
