Elevate Expression Everywhere
Built for working musicians, the Yamaha MODX M6 combines expressive control, streamlined workflow, and exceptional sound in a lightweight, portable design perfect for both stage and studio.
The MODX M6 delivers incredible versatility through three powerful sound engines that cover everything from vintage analog warmth to cutting-edge synthesis and lifelike instrument tones:
AN-X: Recreates warm, classic analog synth sounds
FM-X: Generates modern, expressive FM synthesis tones
AWM2: Produces ultra-realistic acoustic and electric instrument sounds
With up to 268 notes of polyphony, expanded memory (10.7GB AWM2 + 1.9GB user flash), and advanced sound design capability, MODX M6 inspires endless creativity for live or studio work.
Designed for real-time performance, MODX M6 offers eight physical faders, a Super Knob, and dedicated Part and Scene Selection buttons—making it easy to layer, morph, and adjust sounds instantly. All key controls, including the Super Knob, Pitch Bend, Mod Wheel, and Sound Engine, now feature high-resolution precision, giving you smoother transitions and enhanced expressiveness on stage.
Navigate and shape sounds faster with an upgraded color touchscreen, six display knobs, and intuitive interface that make sound design and performance control seamless. A Stereo A/D input with dual insertion effects and USB MIDI 2.0 expand your creative options while simplifying connectivity.
The 61-key semi-weighted keyboard provides a faster, more substantial feel—perfect for synth players who want enhanced playability and responsive control. The improved action offers a noticeable upgrade over previous MODX+ models, ideal for fast-paced performance and studio sessions alike.
Every MODX M6 owner gains access to the Expanded Softsynth Plugin (ESP)—a software version of the instrument that runs inside your favorite DAW (available early 2026). With ESP, you can create, edit, and mix performances anywhere, offering total integration between your hardware and software workflow.
AN-X Engine: Dual filters, 10 filter types, pulse width modulation, oscillator self sync, ring modulation, FM/wave share, and analog-style voltage drift simulation
AWM2 Engine: Up to 128 Elements per Part for deep layering and realistic articulation
Motion Control Synthesis: Includes Motion Sequences, Super Knob, and Envelope Follower for evolving textures and dynamic control
MODX M6 simplifies your setup with USB MIDI 2.0 and a 10-output / 4-input audio interface, allowing you to record multitrack audio, monitor virtual instruments, and control MIDI—all through a single USB connection.
Cubase AI provides everything you need to start recording, editing, and mixing right out of the box—an ideal entry into professional-grade digital production.
