I should mention, too, that the sounds I chose were ones that both keyboards contained the samples/patches for. When you delve into the Montage’s string & horn patches, especially solo instruments, you can hear where the comparison gap is. Montage comes to life.

thanks for this patch comparison, something I've been looking for 🙏. I am surprised at how good the MODX+ is, given that the Montage is 2.5X the price, where I live. While there is better reverb and sound quality on some of the patches, it really isn't enough to justify a 2.5X price tag for the Montage. The MODX+ it is, for me. Thanks again..

I think that the usability of the interface, the quality of the keys, the amount of memory and the over all build quality are the main differences for the price. Soundwise it is hard to hear differences, especially when playing live.

Formerly, I owned a 01/W pro and subsequently 01/W FD. The overall sound quality between the 2 instruments was, despite the same name patches, pretty damn significant and the later purchased FD had to go within a month

Funny how that works. Some minuscule component on a circuit board, replaced with a cheaper one, may have shaved a penny off production costs. 😆

Notice a slightly better reverb tail on the montage with CFX & Pad.

Agreed. The Montage verb really stands out

I love Yamaha keyboards but the amount of hoop-jumping you have to do to run an update or download a piece of software is such a pain - especially since acquiring Steinberg. Download this. Email that. Confirm this. Enter serial number. Type in this code. Run the installer. Re-start computer....

So true..same. Huge dance you have to do, endlessly. I made peace by using them for what they do best- as live instruments, or if I want to record them, I go analog out into two audio inputs in my daw. That’s the closest my Yamaha keyboards get to a computer. And then of course for any real recording I use plug-ins like everyone else. I don’t regret it a bit, and the nightmares stopped. 😆

@@waltscott5 Sounds like a good plan.
