A Full-size Keyboard Controller with Great Feel!
The Yamaha KX8 88-key MIDI controller keyboard provides incredible control and expressive, dynamic playing, at a great value. In addition to its 88-note Graded Hammer Action keyboard and four assignable rotary encoders, the KX8 provides preset control templates for dozens of major instruments, an arpeggio "phrase factory" with over 340 patterns, transport and track mute and solo controls, and programmable velocity curve control. Cubase Ai4 and editor software is included, so you can get started with the KX8 right out of the box!

Yamaha KX8 88-key MIDI Controller at a Glance:
  • Great keyboard feel
  • More than just a controller
  • Music production right out of the box

Great keyboard feel
Yamaha is well known for making its own keyboard actions. The KX series derives its superior feel from a long lineage of Yamaha pianos and keyboards with its own high-quality Yamaha keyboard action. With the addition of four assignable control knobs, dedicated performance controls, and DAW integration controls for soft synths and sequencers functions, the KX Series is a complete USB MIDI Studio that is as comfortable on stage as it is in the studio.

More than just a controller
The KX Series enables easy song creation with its built-in arpeggio function. Inspired by the Motif ARP phrases, these arpeggios can be played back by the included HALion One softsynth using sound content from the Yamaha Motif or the VST Mega Pack Bundle featuring exclusive content from IK Multimedia, BFD, and Arturia. A dedicated control section on the KX enables complete control of sounds and content.

Music production right out of the box
The KX includes Cubase AI, a special "Advanced Integration" version of Steinberg's legendary music production software. Cubase AI is conveniently controlled via a dedicated control section on the KX, turning it into a complete music production solution.

Yamaha KX8 88-key MIDI Controller Keyboard Features:
  • 88-note Graded Hammer (GHS) Action
  • USB bus-powered MIDI keyboard controller
  • Four assignable rotary encoder knobs
  • Preset control templates for 30 major VSTi's
  • Transport and track mute and solo controls
