The MX even has a streamlined interface for instant hands-on selection of all those great Voices. The newly designed category selection makes it easier than ever to find the Voice you need. You can even edit and store your own sounds right onboard.

MX synthesizers come equipped with VCM effects, which simulate vintage effectors at the circuit level. The　sounds of the ʽ70s are brought back to life, through simulating the hard-to-find vintage sounds of equalizer, flanger, phaser, and wah effects introduced by the keyboard legends of the era.

The 128 Performances on the MX are all user editable, but come programmed with the latest club friendly grooves.
