MM6 - Yamaha's new entry level Music Synthesizer contains more than 540 high-quality Voices  ranging from acoustic musical instruments to unique synthesizer sounds. Play them from the keyboard, accompany yourself with Arpeggios and the Easy Chord function.

Watch the Bert Smorenburg videos!

Split and layer the keyboard and save your settings in one of the 64 Performances. Record your own Songs with the built-in 8 track sequencer plus Pattern accompaniment or play back Standard-MIDI-Files from attached USB-Storage devices. The large LC-display (320 x 240 pixels), four control knobs, Modulation and Pitch Bend wheels let you control the MM6 in a comfortable way.

High-Quality Voices for Keyboard Performance
The MM6 contains a wide range of high-quality voices (many based on the MOTIF Series voices), ranging from acoustic musical instruments to unique synthesizer sounds. Use the Category Search function to quickly call up the sounds you want, based on their instrument type.

Play the Keyboard Along with a Pattern
The patterns in the MM6 were created to give you a wide range of different musical genres simply by playing back the pattern tracks. Moreover, you can easily record chord changes to both the patterns and your real time keyboard performance in the Song mode.

Use the Arpeggiator
The versatile Arpeggio feature automatically plays drum percussion phrases, guitar phrases, and analog synthesizer style phrases in response to the keys you play.

Save and Switch Between Performance Settings (Performance Memory)
The Performance Memory lets you conveniently create and store up to 64 combined settings for the voices you play (including keyboard splits and layers), the patterns you want to assign to backing tracks, and other important settings for live performance. These performance settings can be easily recalled by a single button press.

Controlling Filter and EG in Real Time
You can control the filter (cutoff and resonance) and EG (attack and release) in real time by using four knobs on the panel. Even these detailed sonic changes can be saved in the Performance Memory.

Save Performance Data to a USB Storage Device
Transferring data between the MM6 and your computer is easy because the MM6 can store data and setting to standard USB storage devices.

Create Music with Your Computer and the Bundled DAW Software
You can connect the MM6 to your computer using a USB cable, and transfer MIDI data to and from DAW software. With the Bundled DAW software the MM6 becomes the central tone generator for your computer based music production system.

The Yamaha MM6 review.

I have only had mine for a few weeks and to start with I didn\'t like the sound of it at all, except when it was playing the 3 demo songs which sounded great.

I found that the modulation wheel had a really negative effect on the pure instrument sounds and turned it down to zero and then by using the main voice also as the dual voice, this added a much better depth to the sound.

Later, after playing with the effects settings the MM6 has produced some wonderful sounds and I am very glad that I bought it.

Considering the price compared with the Motif Synths I consider the MM6 to be a very good first synth.

I just wish I could find more time to use it!

MM6 Rocks! But Beware!

I recently started learning to play and I wanted an entry level synth that would allow me the freedom of playing as well as straight forward and simple manipulation of the sounds provided. I was not disappointed! I love this machine so much and is perfect for any beginners like myself!

The only warning I have is that you need to buy speakers to hear the damn thing! I sat there for an hour trying to figure out why no sound would play, then dashed over to PC world to buy a speaker system (which now doubles up as my surround sound for TV yay).

You can use headphones though, you just need one of those converters that make the small jack...bigger :)

Great system! Great price! Fast and secure delivery. Brilliant!

I can' really see how the MM6 can hurt your ears, unless of course someone hit you with it. It's one flaw if it has one is it is sooooo light. Get carried away and it would be off the stand in a flash. Sound wise it is very good, nice rich and lush pads, biting leads, and very realistic for real instruments. You get a lot for your money on this one. I don't own one myself, but played with one for an hour in a local music shop. Oh and my ears didn't hurt a bit when I finished playing.

The MM6 is a really cheap synth that seems to offer a lot for the money. It claims to be a somehow stripped down motif. But it just doesn't sound very good. In fact after a short time of playing it made my ears hurt and my muscles contract! You are way better of spending a little extra on the M06, witch is an amazing maching for the money, or finding an alternative product.

I do not own this product, but trying it at the store was enough. Have been a synth player for 15+ years.
