    • Amazing keyboard - it is worth it!
Color: Black Size: 88-Key Style: MX
OH my word this is a great sounding keyboard and easier than most to play and layer sounds and synth. We love it! we use it in a small church and it has made a tremendous difference in our music. The quality is amazing for the price and the keys feel real - a good weight and fit for our needs.

    • MX49 is a Great keyboard; tons of fun
Color: Blue Size: 49-Key Style: MX
Excellent pro keyboard (the blue one looks & sounds great). I wanted a compact great sounding board & this is it. I thoroughly researched all the 49-key boards & the mx49 dominates by far, especially in the sample/sound quality. In the 80s I used to gig with pro boards like the DX7 & Roland D50. This little beast blows em away. TIP: I always set it one octave down (easy to do w/button) for best sound. Pros: + breathtaking sample quality & choice. strong piano, ep & synth patches, & lots to choose from. + it looks awesome in blue + hardware 4 knobs excellent for realtime pitch shifts + performance mode w/drum tracks & arpeggiator brings it to life + USB card port makes it easy to tweak & save many different setups; works great. tip: save factory defaults into usb file as well; vs job/restore fxn + total pro patches; same as on $2k+ synths; it sounds Awesome and its a great value Cons: - no looper/sequencer (I bought a digitech pedal looper) - no layer & split simultaneous mode - no aftertouch or weighted/semi weighted keys; though keys are still excellent - almost no 3rd party patches for this available (!); I only found 4 - I'd like more dance/EDM style sounds I have lots of fun with this; its easy to use; very smart design engineering; classic high quality Yamaha synth. Update: this works great with the Digitech JMSXT Jamman Solo XT Stereo Looper Phrase Sampler Pedal... must-have gear; i use it w/alto or behringer mixer. I hate DAWs; the idea of using software in front of a pc is ridiculous to me (I'm oldschool); using a hardware pedal looper works great. Last night I jammed for 2 glorious hours with this keyboard + looper. Tips: use auto-quantize mode on looper, and set tempo in looper & MX49 to match performance (120 or 106bpm etc). record 8-16 bars or whatever of mx49 performance drums & bassline into looper, then store as main loop. Next i added lots of mx49 percussion bits one loop at a time. then bg chord comps with clav or pads. so it stacks /overdubs til it sounds fantastic. then i play over it with organ or synth lead patch for improv. Huge difference in fun vs playing over performances alone. Question: why do so many patches play just one note max at a time? like synth leads... I like playing 2-3 notes in chords; am i missing something? tia to the music, ken Update 2/2019 The more I play this, the more I like it. I play along with music videos on youtube with a mixer. HIGHLY recommend this keyboard; also I love the patches in the 3rd-party "mx dance pro" download (under $50); those are what I use primarily to play along w/edm like tiesto umf etc; stunning quality that beats the built-in patches (thx Peter). ... show more

    • Outstanding midrange keyboard
Color: Black Size: 88-Key Style: MX
Good: Just about everything. Physically solid, sits nicely on a standard X-style stand. Wide variety of voices, many of which are an absolute joy to listen to, even with my horrible playing. The keyboard has a natural, acoustic-piano feel to it; key action is smooth and solid, glissandos don't feel like you're about to break a finger as with some keyboards; velocity sensing sounds natural. Lots of bells and whistles (figuratively and literally) to play with and tweak up the canned voices. I count the lack of built-in speakers as a plus; this beast deserves good headphones and/or a good external amp instead of tinny, low-powered built-ins. Generally looks, feels, and sounds like it should cost more than it does. Bad: If anything, the keys seem to me to be a little *too* heavily weighted; this may well be more a reflection of my own lack of conditioning than anything else. Would be nice to have some dedicated preset buttons for voice changes instead of the rather awkward method used. Also, my stand has straps and bolts to secure an instrument to it. It looks like a standard method, but the MX88 makes no provision for such. Mind you, the keyboard rests well on the stand, and I don't plan on channeling Keith Emerson any time soon, but accidents do happen. Ugly: Nothing; a very attractive and professional-looking instrument. Bottom line: After being away from keyboards for 30-odd years, I wanted something I could grow (back) into. I found it. The minuses above are nit-picks; this is an outstanding instrument for the price. Five stars. ... show more

    • Fantastic, but menu diving
Color: Black Size: 61-Key Style: MX
So, as an owner of a Nord Electro 5d, I need another one for...reasons. Anyway, this seemed to be a great "budget" Electro. I've used Yamaha keyboards for years. I actually learn Beethoven's Walstein on a PSR 280 (haha) so Yamaha has a special place in my heart. okay, I'm going to skip a lot of my thoughts here. A lot of my thoughts have to do with things that have already been said a lot. For example, the sound samples are great, the key bed feels great to play on if you enjoy the Yamaha synth beds, and all the functionality on this keyboard is fantastic. But I will highlight a negative. The menu diving. I understand that with this many features, it would be impossible to put all control at your fingertips. However, I do think they could have streamlined things better, or at least offered a version with a large touch-screen or a bigger screen with more information. or hey, even some kind of laptop connectability so you could control the keyboard with your laptop. My point is, the menu system and the display are reminiscent of digital technology from the mid-90s. I feel like I'm hacking a computer 20 years ago whenever I need to change the threshold on a compressor insert effect Etc. That might be sort of nitpicky, but really, it's the only time that I feel like things could have been improved. Other than that, this is a fantastic little keyboard. It can do anything you need. Obviously it does not have the magic of the Nord electro, but that's okay. It's not supposed to. ... show more
