The MX61 carries the sound DNA of the MOTIF XS series, a studio reference, condensed into a lightweight and robust chassis. Positioned as a versatile digital synthesizer, it offers the reliability of a "real keyboard" and the flexibility of a modern controller, in a particularly accessible size and price range.
Whether you are a motivated beginner, beatmaker, or experienced keyboardist, the MX61 covers electro, pop, synthwave, hip-hop, ambient, or scoring. Its compactness makes it an ideal ally for rehearsals, on stage, or in the home studio, with professional-quality sounds and a smooth workflow with your DAW.
Based on AWM2 synthesis (sample playback with filters and envelopes), the MX61 delivers a rich sonic palette, ranging from pianos and strings to electronic leads and basses. Its 128-note polyphony and 16-part multitimbrality allow for controlling complex arrangements, while the arpeggiator and Split/Layer functions speed up creation. The VCM effects add character by modeling the behavior of analog circuits. Thanks to the USB audio/MIDI interface (also compatible with iOS), the keyboard integrates as an audio interface and control surface for your virtual instruments. The LCD screen facilitates navigation through over 1,000 sounds, and the inclusion of Steinberg Cubase AI provides a complete production environment right out of the box.
