Yamaha CS 60 demonstration

A demo of the new Motif XS by Yamaha's Bert Smorenburg that I was able to take at the NAMM 2007 Music Trade Show. Unfortunately, the picture and sound quality could be better, but I guess you get what you pay for :)

The Yamaha MOTIF-RACK XS is something we have to admit really takes the cake. Not only does it house the sounds of the MOTIF in a rack module, but plug it into your computer with Steinberg Cubase, and it's treated like a VSTi. This means that it's essentially giving you the ability to use this rack ...

The MX49 has 49 keys, with only 8 pounds, and is designed not only for mobile music-making but to act as a "co-processor" for your favorite DAW - offload instruments and effects to the hardware. And there's more to the story than that, as this video demonstrates.
