"BUY THIS SYNTH!"

Feature:
Well it comes with Cubase Le, which if your going to get serious into recording your music, drop the cd and by something like Reason or Cubase 4. This synth lets you create a 8 track performance, and it has a few knobs for tweaking your sounds.

Quality:
Well it is plastic, and its pretty hard. But i dont know how durable this would be. it seems to be if you dropped it the outer shell might fall off or crack or something. but i am sure this is durable enough, by a protection case and you'll be fine. i am not dropping mine to see how strong the plastic is though.

Value:
This synth is the greatest in it's price, def a bargain. it is better then most synths a few hundred dollars above it.

Desirability:
it has a nice sleek outer body to it, very nice looking. i do wish they could have added to the design a little bit.

Sound:
The sound of this synth is amazing. Everything on this synth sounds amzingly awsome. The piano to synth, and the drums to guitar. all sounds great!

Ease of Use:
This synth is so easy to use, and thats one reason i love it so much. You just have to barley read the manual to start recording and playing your own tracks.

Support:
AMAZING!!

"The sleek MM6 gets the job done."

Feature:
the features on the mm6 are great, you can tweak your music however you need. i got mine used, and all i needed to buy was the USB cable. i dont know if the cable comes with it new or not. other then that it comes with all you need.

Quality:
well it is plastic, hard plastic though. it is pretty durable. just dont be throwing it off any buildings or anything.

Value:
very good for the price. DONT BUY IF YOU PLAN ON USING THE PIANO SOUND ALOT.

Desirability:
this synth is awsome looking, i love the sleek look of the outer shell.

Sound:
The sound is amazing on everything, except the piano. i heard the piano sounded bad, but i didnt think it would be that bad. but for the music i play i dont really need the piano.

Ease of Use:
i have only looked at the manual once to see how to delete the user tracks. other then that i dont need the manual to use this synth.

Support:
havent had to call them yet.

Overall:
i am 100% i will use this for years to come. although when i get more money i will buy another synth.

Description

News
The MM6 Music Synthesizer delivers all that power and more. Drawing on the same sounds of the popular pro-level MOTIF series instruments, the MM6 has a wide variety of dynamic, realistic and just plain powerful Voices to help you create amazing music. The MM6 also gives you total control over your sound, with real-time tweakable knobs, and features special Patterns that provide full backing -- drums, bass and chords -- for your live performance and song creation. And since the MM6 is exceptionally light and portable, you can bring it anywhere and everywhere your music takes you.

Play -- Sounds from the Legendary Motif
That's the first and most important thing you look -- and listen -- for in a synthesizer. Rest assured, this synthesizer delivers. The MM6 has 418 Voices and 22 Drum Kits on board, based on the sounds of the famed pro-level MOTIF series synthesizers. These exceptionally high-quality sounds range from authentic and natural acoustic instruments to wild, unique and in-your-face synth Voices. An extra set of GM Voices (128 Normal, 1 Drum Kit) is built into the instrument as well, giving you all you need to play back songs recorded in that popular format.

So many Voices, so little time... That's why Yamaha also included a convenient Category Search function. Just select the type of instrument you want to play -- organ, guitar, synth lead, strings, whatever -- then select the specific Voice. All your favorite sounds are right at your fingertips.

Tweak -- Your Sounds the Way You Want!
Take control. Twist some knobs and tweak the sound. Make it sing and make it scream. The MM6 puts some serious control in your hands. Change the filter cutoff and resonance settings as well as the EG attack and release with the four knobs - in real time as you play.

Jam -- Patterns to Groove On
The MM6 has a full set of Patterns that give you rhythmic backing in a wide variety of music styles -- including Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, Dance, Ambient, Pop, Rock, Jazz and even World styles. These Patterns are just what you need to shake up the dance floor. All dynamic, all powerful - the MM6 gives you the real thing. Patterns that stay in the groove, but never sound mechanical. Drum loops with a truly human feel that dance and float around the beat, yet remain firmly in the pocket. Riffs and licks that get you inspired, get you moving, and get you creating some serious music.

Arpeggiate Yourself
Generate some excitement. The powerful Arpeggiator feature lets you automatically create repeating rhythmic phrases and note patterns. A full 213 Arpeggiator types are built in, letting you trigger a variety of musically useful and exciting patterns to get the house jumping. Many of these Arpeggiator types use synth lead, piano and guitar Voices to generate melodic and broken chord patterns based on the chords you play with your left hand. Bass arpeggios and Drum Voice rhythm loops are also included, letting you easily set up dynamic riffs and beats to jam over.

Create -- Your Music, Your Way
When you play live, you want to be able to make sound changes quickly -- not just between songs, but in the middle of a song too. The Performance Memory feature is just the tool you need to smoothly switch gears and take things up a notch or two. Each Performance can store combined settings for the Voices you want to use (including special keyboard splits and layers), the Patterns you want as backing tracks, and any other crucial settings for your live work. Then, simply call up each Performance by pressing a single button.

Save and Swap
Share the wealth. With the rear panel USB connection, the MM6 makes it easier than ever before to transfer your valuable data between devices. Plug in a USB thumb drive or memory stick and store the important MIDI songs, Pattern files, Performance settings and all other data you've created, and then bring it to a computer for archiving and organizing. You can also save your recorded songs in the universal SMF (Standard MIDI File) format, then transfer and use those on any another SMF-compatible device, including computers running MIDI music sequencing software.

Cubase LE
The MM6 is all about making music. And since much of today's music is being made on computers, the MM6 is built to fit right into any computer music system. Just connect the USB To Host terminal on the instrument to your computer with a standard USB cable, and you've got the makings of a sophisticated recording setup. And just to make sure you get a head start, Yamaha included a free copy of Cubase LE -- a full-featured music production software that has all you need to record your performance data from the MM6 via MIDI (and even use plug-in synthesizers in the software), edit the data, process the sounds with effects, arrange it in multiple tracks and perform final mixdown.
Make amazing music! Loaded with creative tools, hands-on control, and excellent Motif-derived sounds. Eight sequencer tracks, Pattern track, plus arpeggiator. Performance memory stores panel settings. Cutoff, resonance, attack, and release knobs. Over 400 voices and over 20 drum kits, with category search function. Stereo 1/4" and headphone outputs; MIDI and USB I/O.
