Workstation Comparison: Yamaha Montage, MODX and Korg Nautilus

In this video Mike takes a look at 3 price tiers of Music Workstation Synthesizers to see how they stack up: Yamaha's flagship Montage - a premium unit with a price tag to match, the new mid-range KORG 'Nautilus' that channels the Korg Kronos pedigree, and the budget friendly but feature packed Yamaha MODX.

Overall each unit certainly has strengths. The 2 Yamaha's 8 operator FM synth engine is able to produce mind-bogglingly complex sounds and the 'superknob' is a lot of fun. However the 9 sound engines of the Korg Nautilus, plus the Sequencer and Sampler provide a lot of flexibility, and the vintage inspired Korg MS-20 and Polysix engines are fantastic.

Being immensely complex units, consider this a teaser of their capabilities. So if you're looking to buy a workstation keyboard, do your research and try to get down to a store to play each unit on your shortlist. Videos are no substitute for trying them yourselves!
