You can easily combine two Voices to play on the keyboard using the dedicated Split and Layer buttons each with their own intelligent arpeggiator and a dedicated Part for a drum track to create evocative Performances that feel like a whole band is playing. The 128 Performances on the MX are all user editable, but come programmed with the latest club friendly grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA MX Series Performance can give you a complete 16-Part multitimbral mix, allowing you to switch between any of the 16 Parts without the sound cutting off. With a massive 128 note polyphony, even the densest sequences from your DAW are faithfully played back, making the MX the perfect tone generator solution for live performance and live playback MIDI sequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe MX also features solid knobs and durable buttons for controlling internal sounds, DAW parameters and VST instruments. The deceptively simple interface is combined with a remote template editor on your computer so any VST you own or any new VSTs you buy can be easily setup to be controlled by the MX. There are advanced integration templates for use with a variety of DAWs. When used with Cubase, there is even an AI knob so any parameter can be controlled by the large rotary encoder just by mousing over it. It's never been quicker to take full control of Cubase. And, if you don't already have Cubase at home, we've included Cubase AI to get you started.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs well as providing hardware controls for your DAW and virtual instruments, the MX49 is a complete audio interface as well. Just connect a USB cable to your computer or iOS device to monitor all the sounds from your DAW either via the MX49's headphone output or listen to your studio mix by connecting the MX49 to studio monitors or a PA system. The audio converters on the MX are made for professional music applications so everything on your computer - even games - will sound better when using the MX as the output. The MX interface is bi-directional so you can record the internal sounds of the MX directly to your computer, without ever going to the analog domain, for the highest possible quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe MX Series comes with a complete suite of music production software tools. Steinberg's superb Cubase AI gives you 48 audio tracks and 64 MIDI tracks, notation and built-in VST effects so, with just the MX and Cubase AI, you can already produce professional tracks. But we didn't stop there; we've also included Steinberg's Prologue analogue synthesizer VST and our own YC-3B organ emulator giving you an even greater sonic palette. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to Cubase AI for macOS and Windows, the MX49 will also unlock Steinberg's brilliant and suprisingly powerful Cubasis LE for iPad. The Bi-directional audio\/MIDI interface and USB class compliant nature of the new MX Series greatly enhances the music production experience of Cubasis LE - and nothing beats the immediacy of producing on a touchscreen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42022072483918,"sku":"DDJ3238","price":499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/4195\/6430\/files\/yamaha-mx49-blue-angle.jpg?v=1759160421","url":"https:\/\/www.thediscdjstore.com\/products\/yamaha-mx49","provider":"The Disc DJ Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
