AlanForPresident « cheap price for a full 88 key workstation »
Published on 06/28/12 at 23:54The MoX8 is a full 88 key workstation that I cant believe cost under 2 thousand dollars. Most of the other workstations by roland and other companies will cost well over 2 thousand dollars and that’s just for the 61 key version. So I don’t know how Yamaha can afford to put this one out and it’s a full 88 key workstation and keep it under 2 thousand dollars.
UTILIZATION
Its not easy at all to understand , it will take some time if you havent worked with many yamaha systems before. A yamaha workstation is way different than Roland workstations which is what I was use to for a while. This keyboard is huge, so don’t plan on taking it a lot of places with you, its just too big to be lugging around or even attempting to want to take it anywhere with you.
SOUNDS
The sounds are really good, there is a wide selection of sounds that you can use, and all of them are pretty editable within the board. The downside of this keyboard is that the screen isn’t too big and I hate having to work on a sequence with a screen that is this tiny. It is a nice backlit color though, but its just so small it makes it difficult to really be able to edit everything the way that I like.
OVERALL OPINION
For the price and the full 88 keys, you wont find a better deal at this price. If you can afford it you will need to purchase this. it’s a great deal for a huge full size workstation that can produce all types and genres of music. You will not be disappointed with this workstation. I just hope you have better ability to put up with the screen size then I do. So now I just mostly use it for the sounds only.
