Yamaha Motif Keyboard – The Core of Your Studio / Stage Rig

The Yamaha Motif Keyboard has everything you need to make professional quality music, in one single instrument.




A successful keyboard workstation must stand out both, in a professional studio and on stage. With impressive ease of use, and amazing sounds, the Motif XS keyboard is the right instrument for both environments.

This is clearly a winner from Yamaha. Yamaha Motif is giving its closest competitors like the Triton (from Korg) and the Fantom (from Roland) a run for their money. Lot of musicians loyal to the Korg and the Roland brand have acknowledged Motif's power and have since switched over to it, or added it to their gear.
