Description: Yamaha Motif ES8 - Complete with everything it came with when I purchased it new including the box Free Local Pickup Reason for Selling:I am downsizing both literally and figurativelyI have used this Motif so little since new that I can not justify owning it any longerThe Motif ES8 is truly a Professional level Music Production SynthesizerI have only ever and would only ever utilize a tiny portion of the features and functionality the Motif offersA handful of pieces I produced using this ES8 are currently being used in TV shows proving this instrument really can create broadcast quality audio and music... but we already knew thatI have already repackaged this instrument in it's original carton together with all the extras included when I purchased in new. I do know that if desired (or required) the latest versions of the included software CDs are available on both Yamaha's support website and the Motifator site.I hope you find exactly what you are looking for. From the Manufacturer:Unprecedented performance and expressive control.The Yamaha MOTIF ES8 88-Key Music Production Synthesizer features a huge 175MB wave ROM, an enhanced soundset of 1,859 waveforms for the MOTIF's 1,024 voices, plus 65 drum kits. A newly designed tone generator chip offers true 128-note polyphony, and a newly developed synth engine provides new parameters and faster, more precise envelope control. An enhanced effects system includes 20 reverb types and 49 chorus/delay types, 8 types of mastering effects including multiband compression, and a 5-band master EQ. The MOTIF ES8 houses an advanced Phrase Factory arpeggiator with realtime loop remix capability plus parameters such as Swing, Velocity, and Quantize so you can easily modify preset arps. Overall expressiveness of the instrument has been expanded with the new "Mega Voice" system, a technology that makes it possible to include all the nuances of an instrument in the sample. Motif ES integrates seamlessly with DAWs via its USB connection to function as control surface. It also has a USB "To Device" port for connection to USB storage devices.
