I've had all motifs - montage to date, however Montage m8x concept is old & tired looking, Yamaha lost me on this model, not exciting, tiny outdated 7" display should have been at least 9" like Genos, should've had usb 3.2 gen 2 or thunderbolt, built in SSD drive, samples are boring same as last time, pianos and rhodes have been improved but organs lacking. I'm a pro live & studio and this board doesn't give me encouragement to own. I sold all my montages past & brought this new version back to the store. Not good value for price.

The hardware is a good piece of gear and worth the upgrade, however, the freighting from Yamaha was almost a tragedy.When it was removed from the truck, I noticed it had 2 big holes and squash marks in the box where a forklift had gone though it. I almost thought I'd be asking for another one. Fortunately, the forklift had missed the keyboard by the smallest of margins, and it is only the packing case which was trashed.Expensive synth, but nice!

I've been a piano player for my entire life and I'm very picky about how the keys feel on a keyboard and even more picky about the quality of the piano sounds. And for the past year or so I've become fascinated with vintage synths, building my own DIY modular analog synth and I even picked up a vintage DX7 to learn how to program FM. Well, I received my Montage M8X a week ago and I am IMPRESSED. The piano feels fantastic - just like my baby grand, and it sounds heavenly. The FMX engine does everything the DX7 does and way more, not to mention it's considerably easier to program. The ANX engine is absolutely amazing! Beyond all this, the organs and electric pianos, rhodes, wurlitzers, etc. sound fantastic AND the strings and brass samples are the best I've ever ... MoreI've been a piano player for my entire life and I'm very picky about how the keys feel on a keyboard and even more picky about the quality of the piano sounds.

Honestly, I'm left with the impression that Yamaha has created the perfect keyboard. I really don't know what they've missed here. How can this be improved? It's pricy for sure, but worth every penny.
