@YamahaMusicUSA

Reuben Unkovich Yes, the keyboard can be controlled via another MIDI keyboard via a MIDI connection. It can also be controlled through your computer via USB simultaneously. However, it is not possible to connect a MIDI device to the USB port on reface without additional interfacing hardware.

+Yamaha Corporation of America I absolutely love the reface products, but I wish they weren't so expensive. I mean, you have to charge how much you do because of cost of manufacturing and design, but if they were 100 cheaper, I'd be way more inclined to buy them.

+Yamaha Corporation of America Are you coming out with a full size version? This is great but only because it gives me hope for an upgraded version, for an organ to only have 3 octaves it's like half an instrument, much like the CP. This organ in full size 5-octave is a perfect dream and would fill a hole in the market, especially if it's lower priced than those ridiculous nords. By the way, the only reason I'm interested in this is that it has the farf, vox, and yam models. Also a thing thats underrepresented in the market. So if you ever expand the YC line, please continue to take those models as seriously as the hammonds.

Wow... Last time I saw someone playing something that sounded like this.. I was in my great aunt's basement, and she was hammering out very old songs on a huge table sized organ that probably had a few decades on me..

This is my favourite Synth/Organ of the Reface family...Realy it's amazing!

I know what I'm gonna get myself for Christmas this year.

I used to hate organs. Until I saw this video years ago and for whatever reason, I keep coming back to watch it. I wish I had half the energy and spirit Dr. Mix puts into these videos. He's like the 'Ants Canada' of music. If you know what I'm talking about, you'll definitely get the comparison.

I was shocked, it legit sounds like an actual Hammond organ. Was no expecting that good of a sound

Such a great little instrument. In a parallel universe the keyboard section and the control part would be detachable thus giving the freedom of combining all four refaces on a single 88 key master keyboard like a Lego 😍

I can see this little organ being a really useful in a live setting. Say you'd want to thicken up the chorus of a few songs with some great Hammond or combo organ stuff, but might not have the space or desire to bring your organ/clonewheel and Leslie. I've tried the full Reface series and they all sound great- and I've owned a Hammond tonewheel organ, Fender Rhodes, vintage analogs, and a DX7IIFD. Perhaps we'll see some scaled-up versions of these later on, Yamaha? I sure hope so.

I seriously want all of these! I can't decide. I love FM synthesis but the electric piano one is perfect for acoustic jams and this one is great for gospel!

Right sounds are amazing, left of centers sounds are interesting too. The resolution is solid and plain

Gets very "synthy" in some places. More versatile than one might initially think.

I used my YC live in a band for a while and liked it. Now I'm noticing at home when I'm trying to play two hands solo (as opposed to the one handed licks I was doing in the band) that the low notes always overpower the high notes. It doesn't matter where my drawbars are set, this is always a problem. No fun having the left hand bass/chords drown out the right hand melody. Disappointed with this discovery. Anyone else experience this?

Wow, not bad at all. I have a Nord Electro, and it I have to admit that this little one sounds pretty much alike. Congrats!

Very cool, i could spend all day listen to these sounds

Sounds freakin dope just like all the Refaces. I've got the CP and just ordered the CS but this one would really be nice too. Would fill a big sound gap in my studio.

Hello Doctor Mix, I went to the specifications and played the audio samples, and the YC has the sounds that will be good for my church choir accompaniment and also jamming with my friends playing the 60s 70s music.
