MODX Owner’s Manual
8
Main Features
High-quality, enhanced sounds covering a
wide range of music styles
The MODX is loaded with 5 GB (in 16-bit linear format) of
preset Advanced Wave memory (AWM2)—the same size
as that of MONTAGE6/7/8. The MODX has a huge variety
of sounds, including highly realistic Piano sounds, with
large-volume waveform data. The MODX features 1.0 GB
of User flash memory built in, for storing various
Performance libraries. The Performance data is
maintained in the same way as preset Performances
even if the power is turned off. The MODX also now
features an FM-X tone generator, providing powerfully
complex FM synthesis. This puts both standard FM and
new-generation FM sounds in your sonic palette, giving
you a wide range of expressive, richly textured sounds to
work with, and lets you combine both the FM-X and
AWM2 tone generators.
Extensive effect processing
The MODX has a huge variety of professional and
modern-music effects, including Spiralizer, Rotary
Speaker 2, Uni Comp Down, Uni Comp Up, Parallel
Comp, and Presence. The instrument also gives you a
wide array of signal processing options, including
separate Variation and Reverb, an overall Master Effect
including multi-band compression, five-band master EQ,
independent Insertion Effects, plus three-band EQ
before the Insertion Effects and two-band EQ after them.
These Insertion Effects contain wide variety of sound
processing options, including a special Vocoder effect.
Motion Control System for new musical
possibilities
The Motion Control System is a completely new feature
for variably controlling Motions (rhythmical, multi-
dimensional sound changes) in real time. This amazingly
powerful feature dramatically and dynamically alters the
sounds of the instrument in new, never-heard-before
ways—changing texturally, rhythmically with the beats,
providing cool, colorful lighting effects, and responding
expressively to your creative passion.
The Motion Control System has three main functions:
1) Super Knob:
For creating multi-dimensional sonic changes, and
enhancing those changes with colorful, continually
shifting lighting changes.
2) Motion Sequencer:
For continually variable sound changes.
3) Envelope Follower:
Synchronizes the Motions with tempo and volume of
audio input and other Parts.
The Rhythm Pattern Function
The MODX has a powerful Rhythm Pattern function, with
which you can dynamically create sounds using the
Rhythm Parts. It allows you to assign Rhythm Parts
instantly and create rhythmic changes in Motion Control
using the Envelope Follower.
Expanded, enhanced Arpeggio function and
Motion Sequence
The MODX has more than 10,000 Arpeggio types that
cover the latest music styles. Further enhancing the
musical expressiveness of the instrument, you can
combine the Motion Sequence function for creating
dynamic sound variability over time with various
Arpeggio types. You can store all contents—Arpeggio
Type, Motion Sequence, and other parameters such as
Part volume—together as Scenes, and assign them to
eight buttons, letting you conveniently and powerfully
call up those Scenes as desired while you perform.
Exceptionally convenient live performance
functions
The MODX has a Live Set function for easily calling up
Performances as you play on stage. Once you’ve stored
Performances in the desired order, you can concentrate
fully on your playing and never be at a loss on which to
choose. The MODX also has SSS (Seamless Sound
Switching) function
*1
for switching between
Performances smoothly without any notes being cut off.
*1: The SSS function is effective for Performances of up to
four Parts.
Enhanced user interface
Unlike its predecessors, the MODX has been designed
without any “Modes.” As a result, it is extremely easy to
understand the structure and flow of the instrument, and
the convenient touch panel is a total joy to use. You can
creatively and effectively use the touch panel for intuitive
operations and the switches for more secure control, if
desired. These switches light in three different ways,
letting you instantly understand the current status of the
switches.
Compact design with authentic, expressive
keyboard
The MODX is compact in size and weight making it
convenient for easy carrying. Despite its convenient
portability, the MODX provides an authentic, natural
keyboard that’s truly a pleasure to perform on: The
MODX6 has 61 keys and the MODX7 features a semi-
weighted keyboard of 76 keys, while the MODX8 has
88 keys with a high-quality GHS keyboard.
Comprehensive system connectivity
The MODX features a built-in 4-channel in/10-channel
out USB audio interface for recording the high-quality
sound of the MODX (at 44.1 kHz sampling frequency) on
a Mac or Windows PC—without the need for a separate
device! The connections are also compatible with iOS
devices.
