Yamaha has announced the release of the MODX M Series, an updated version of the company's mid-tier MODX+ workstation synth that integrates features from the high-end Montage M, including the AN-X virtual analogue modelling engine.
The AN-X sound engine is 12-voice polyphonic and powered by three oscillators, capable of producing five waveforms (Saw1, Saw2, Square, Triangle and Sine). Two filters are on board with a choice of 10 filter types, and AN-X offers waveshaping, wavefolding, ring mod, PWM and FM, alongside voltage drift and aging settings that introduce a vintage-style sound.
