Thank you so much! I am new MX88 user and your explanation for setting up simple Performances was so much clearer than the manual.

The greatest video on rhis synth I've seen. This is exactly what I wanted to learn (storing it) I am cannot WAIT to watch the rest of this series.

[notbraindead]

Thank you for the instructional video. It is very clear and easy to understand. Well done!

Hi. I've just done a factory reset after saving my performances to usb. Now every time I start the MX 61 I 'm having to reload my performances form the USB stick. I'm missing a step here- I want my performances to start without having to reload them. Hope you can help, thanks.

Great tutorial . I'm not a musician (yet) . I've always been interested in electronic keyboards and synthesizers . After studying and comparing what's on the market, the Yamaha mx series seemed to be the best choice due to high ratings, affordability, and overall versatility . I decided to buy the mx 49 . Over the years I've found that all Yamaha products are high quality and reasonably priced ( from motorcycles to stereo equipment and more ) .
This compact synth is awesome ! After struggling to figure out how to use some of the functions, this video explained it and got me off to a good start understanding how to use this little "powerhouse" .
THANKS FOR THIS TUTORIAL !

My friend your tutorial was amazing and so well done thank you so much for the time you put into it and teaching us new things I do have a request I would love to be able to have a template when I turn off my piano all the settings of all the instruments that I put on go away when I turn off my keyboard and I have to refine all the instruments so that I can play with the instruments that I like using if you could let me know how to do that. Or do a video it would gratefully appreciate it thank you Noble Cue

I've had my MX88 for a short time.  I'm not a fan of the factory performances that came with the keyboard.  Is there anyway that I can erase the factory performance presets and use those storage spots for my own performances?  thank you.

[jpalms]

Exactly what I was looking for thank you so much!

[stevekyer]

Thanks this is extremely helpful, great

[Drivethebeat]

I thought you had to store the new voice settings before storing the performance?

[southgatekid]

Why is it when I power off and cone back later the changes are gone? Great video

[tylerm]

how do I save voices I like to each of the 16 buttons so I can change to them with one click for live

[Keyboardman]

Is there any way to delete all the factory Performances to free up the storage areas? I'd prefer to use those memory locations for my own performances.

[caseytator]

Damn, and I thought I couldn't save my creation on the keyboard, ok now I can plan on buying one

[nousche]

Hello, if I store the performance and after I turn the keyboard off and on it’s gone. How do I keep the performance saved? Thank you

[angelgarcia-yofu]

is there a video on how to create a 16 instrument performance

[Antonio-tihe]

Can you do one where you create a beat to go with the top selection? A beat that you create say from drums or conga ...Thank you.

[Jferraro]

Is there a way I can store a performance with other sounds ready for me to switch to? For example, I save the performance with a piano sound on part 1 and bass sound on part 2 but then switch part 1 to a brass sound but it already has a certain brass sound selected so I don’t have to set them up each time I perform?

[romainereid]

I even use the voice insert effect to edit sound in mind and make effects
