Yamaha S90XS 88 Key Hammer Action Performance Workstation Keyboard

The Yamaha S90XS is an 88 key balanced hammer action keyboard that's just as useful on stage as it is in the studio. It features all of the voices, performances, arps and virtual circuit modeling found in the Motif XS. In addition to this, the S90XS has 142 MB of samples dedicated to the S6 concert grand. Its lush piano sound and Motif capabilities, coupled with other useful features like a microphone/guitar input, audio recording and computer control surface functionality make the S90XS a powerful centerpiece in any musician's life.

There's something to be said about using the same instrument on stage that you used in the studio. The S90XS was designed to excel in both. On stage, the controls are positioned to be obvious and intuitive. There are dedicated knobs and sliders to adjust key parameters. Layering voices and creating splits can be accomplished with just a few button presses. You can even dummy-proof the S90XS by disabling all of the panel controls.

In the studio the S90XS can serve as a control surface for your audio recording software. It features a "DAW Remote" functionality that has 50 different templates that enable you to control your software directly from the panel controls. You can even customize the control templates to suit your personal workflow. If you don't currently own recording studio DAW software, the S90 XS comes with Cubase AI, a professional audio/MIDI sequencer.

No matter where you travel with your S90XS, you can always record. It comes with 192 MB of internal flash memory. Capture all of your work, including audio recorded with the microphone/guitar input and transfer the files to a computer later for further editing, or for sharing with the outside world. You can also record and playback files with external USB flash drives. No matter where you are in your musical development, the S90XS can be a vital and emotive instrument to help you bring your ideas to life.
