Not a new concept but Yamaha has a real winner here. Best demo on KZread. If I buy one it will be from Sweetwater. Best tech support and sales reps.

Finally a all in one keyboard with fabulous organs & other awesome sounds to gig with & can easily carry around!!

Just got this for my birthday. Never been so excited and so overwhelmed! lol

Your licks really made this keyboard shine. Fun to watch.

I came for Daniel’s trademark downward pitch bend....and I stayed for a great review! Loving Yamaha’s new direction for stage instruments. Now all we need is a new CS.....

Best. Solo concert of Daniel Fisher and a YC61.

Fantastic instrument. I love the CP88 and YC88. I want them both. And if Yamaha decides to release a CS88 and DX88, I will want them too.

Extra thumbs up, just for The Lamb!

Awesome! One of the best demo I ever Heard!

I fell in love with this one........ I will have it one day.

Very nice, we are loving this board as well and all the features it offers, amazing!

20:25 best listened to at 11pm, lolz. Thank you, Daniel.

Awesome sounds and great playing Daniel!

Seems like Daniel has the mood for some Progressive Rock today! Genesis, Pink Floyd :)

That's my man, Daniel! Back at it again!

dan you ROCKED IT!

Great demo, thank you.

Great yamaha YC61 and Daniel player to love this key :-)

Great another amazing instrument I can't yet afford. Really great product.

U1 piano sound very beautiful.

@23:31 he gets extra dope! And the progression at @24:00 is WAAAY above AVERAGE with high level assassinry!

Sounds so good

Its Walter from the Big Lebowski. I love this keyboard.

ok I came into this thinking "woah, someone spraypainted a Nord" but this is a well put together and fantastic sounding machine. I like it. I use a King Korg with a Ferrofish B4000 to kind of serve this function now but...thinking.

Loved the keyboard, loved the sounds, loved the playing, and loved hearing so many of those songs I grew up with!! :-)

compliments Daniel for this amazing demo!!! :-)

Thank you! Good music!

Perfect keyboard

Yamaha may be erm, emulating Nord, but while Nord persevere with their sub-standard keybeds, I consider them fair game. This thing is overly-pricey but it sounds fantastic! Great demonstration, as always. Edit: the more I hear this, the more I regret my comment about the price!

Impressive 😎

Does anyone know if the organ's drawbars can remain in Manual Mode (live mode) all the time? Also, Is it possible for each of the three tone sections to receive on its own MIDI Channel? Also, is it possible to to be able to map any of the synth parameters (such as, say Portamento, Filter cutoff, etc....) to any of the sliders/knobs on the front panel?

Great playing. Lots of progressive stuff.

I wonder how this is different from the Roland V-Combo VR 09- They certainly look similar.

Saw this and purchased one. So absorbing. Q1 what sound were you sing at 1.03. It reminds me of Steve Winwoods Valerie period. Is it available as you play it anywhere? Thanks a million

Is there onboard editing? I really like my Roland RD-88 but cannot change the envelope ADSR of any sound at all!

How does the actual keybed feel?

This is an awesome keyboard. Fortunately for my bank account, I don't have a full use for this. I already got my MX88 piano, which I learned the hard way I need. I could not play piano on this thing. I would break it, like I broke my old korg. Now I treat my new korg like it's made of glass = NO BOOGIE WOOGIE. only mx88 Ya, too bad, those organs sound awesome.

How do the pianos compare to the CP88 or CP73? Is the keybed fast and light?

@sweetwater

Great question! The keybed on the YC61 is similar to a traditional organ keyboard and is definitely a lighter action than the CP88 and 73. If you have any other questions, feel free to get in touch.

Can you send MIDI out of the YC into another board? I'd like to have a weighted 88 keyboard underneath and just send a piano sound from the YC to the 88 key board. Possible?

@Roboprogs

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, but I think you have “in” and “out” terms reversed. Connect the MIDI out from your 88 key to the MIDI in on this board, then the audio will come out of this board to the PA/speakers while you play the 88.

Hi can the YC be used as a sound module in Cubase 12 for example, 16 midi in and 16 midi out so I can have different sounds on multiple tracks? Thank you Gr.Ness

NICE 👍🏽 I think , maybe using a YC61 with a P-515 might be a latest Dream Combo 🤗🙏🏽

Sounds great. Is there actual FM in this, or all PCM besides VCM organ? Thumbs up for “Memories of Green”.

Hi xp50player. There's actually a full 8-Operator FM synth in there. You don't have full FM programmability, like on a DX7, but you can modify the FM sound's Tone, Filter, a chosen aspect of its ADSR, as well as its effects. -_Daniel_

Hi Deja Gruv Band. You can layer Organ with two other sounds. Since the Organ can be Split into Upper and Lower, you could have four sounds at once, but it would still be three Layers. (The left-hand Organ sound layered with A+B parts, and then the right-hand Organ sound also layered with those A+B parts.) -_Daniel_

This look like a great concept keyboard but is sound too much like the 90s and not 2020 the only sound i like is the Yamaha C7 piano and strings in the presets. Yamaha need to upgrade there sound quality for me to spend that money on a stage piano. I love Yamaha and real keyboards but for much less money you get better sound with Spectrasonic.

Modern technology sucks. I had a Tyros 5 its dead within 3 years time. Its better to go for midi controllers. At least you don't loose 1000s of dollars.

@vanessajazp6341

4 жыл бұрын

Copy and paste? Nord doesn’t have Yamaha’s FM synthesis engine. I find the YC61 organ to be very full and rich, with a nice beefy low end. The problem with this board is that the rotary sim is the worst I’ve ever heard. That alone makes it not worth buying, unless Yamaha fixes it. But for everything else - amazing!
