Yamaha RM1x Sequence Remixer

The RM1x is a great new pattern based instant dance music machine! It sounds great! The patterns are perfect and inspiring forms of trance, house, hardcore and more with tons of great analog-like sounds and drum kits. The RM1x also features plenty of effects, filters, knobs, and MIDI control. The patterns have a whopping 16 parts (that you can drop-in or out in real-time performances) for lavish and professional productions. Making dance music has never been easier!

For those of you who want to get a little deeper into creating your own tracks, patterns and sounds, there is more. As if the awesome preset patterns aren't enough for you, creating your own 'phrases' is easy. You can modify a phrase's variation, instruments, sounds, tempo, filtering, LFO, and effects until you've morphed it into something of your own. Then store it into one of the 50 user patches. Creating an entire song is also pretty easy. Knobs, mutes, and patterns can be changed on the fly or meticulously programmed in. For the best all-in-one music box that will make you famous for a day - chose the RM1x over the rest! It is used by Apollo 440, Crystal Distortion, and Signal Electrique.

My machine doesn't save voice settings when I power off the unit... does anyone know what this could be caused by. I have a hunch it could be the internal battery. Anyone know for sure? And is that something I could do myself, or better saved for a Yamaha tech? Thanks!

Of course it is... You can assign the parts to whatever you wish to control with it, either the tone generator, which in my opinion is outdated and lacks configurability, or any midi device. I use this a a sequencer for my nova. It's a reliable live tool too... Bounce all the midi into it and control the synth performance on the fly...

Is it possible to use 4 of its 16 parts for built-in sounds and remaining 12 parts to control akai sampler?

super sequencer on the hardware format, very easy to use, awesome bass sounds, basic GM sound collection, OK effects, great tools if you want to modify the internal sounds, as well as creation complex sequence with midi time, delay, FX, so many people switch to computer base sequencers in this day but a lot of musicians around the world still find this unit a vital part of their rigs, Alex Jansik uses this unit live and recording
