Yamaha Seqtrak Mobile Music Ideastation - Orange & Grey
Studio-caliber Sound Design Meets Polyphonic Power
Yamaha has been at the center of world-class sound for over a century. They’ve pioneered work with pianos and organs before expanding to band and orchestra instruments, synthesizers, and all manners of musical mastery. With the Seqtrak mobile music ideastation, Yamaha’s distilled this finely-honed expertise to craft a flexible, all-in-one module that combines two powerful sound engines with an intuitive interface and streamlined form factor that lets you take a full studio’s worth of beat-crafting anywhere you go. Moreover, the accompanying Seqtrak app not only grants further control over the instrument’s wealth of onboard FX, sampling, sequencing, and real-time track building, but includes a Visualizer mode to transform your tunes into a distinctive audiovisual array.
All-in-one sound, from AWM2 to FM, and beyond
The Seqtrak mobile music ideastation’s architecture rests on a dynamic, inspiring foundation of two sound engines. The AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2) draws from numerous Yamaha mainstays to conjure a versatile world of authentic, lifelike sounds and a staggering 128-note polyphony. Channeling their innovation with the legendary DX7, Yamaha’s appointed a 4-operator FM engine to round out the Seqtrak foundation’s sonic dyad, encompassing dazzling leads, evocative pads, and much more. Sound design opportunities abound with the Seqtrak’s versatile suite of onboard FX, including reverbs, delays, and distortions to expand your sonic scope with style.
Detailed composition, sampling, and streamlined interfacing
Mobility lies at the heart of the Seqtrak’s design, and Yamaha’s designers spared no effort to ensure users have access to maximum sound-crafting opportunities — anywhere. Its sleek layout and ergonomic formfactor combine for a 3-part interface that intuitively delineates between composition tools, effects, and master controls. Built-in sequencing and sampling abilities, coupled with an onboard speaker and microphone, are complemented by a pair of powerful performance modes: Tracks and Patterns. These can all be freely combined and exchanged in real-time studio or stage environments, instantly muting, cueing, and remixing various aspects of your track to reimagine the wealth of sonic possibilities afforded by Seqtrak’s distinctive creative toolkit.
Go deeper with cutting-edge technology
While the rechargeable battery guarantees unfettered, on-the-go musical potential, our physical plane isn’t the only place Seqtrak dares to explore. Using the adjoining Seqtrak app, you’re able to engage with deep, granular editing capabilities that affect not just the scope of the onboard sound engines, but allow for custom audio samples, inspiring collaborative opportunities with other artists, and instant sharing to the world of Seqtrak sonic voyagers. Artistic empowerment doesn’t stop with audio, however, as the Seqtrak app boasts a unique Visualizer mode that can be further edited and honed for a full-spectrum audiovisual array. Plus, once you’re ready to head back to home base, flexible USB-C connectivity and the included MIDI breakout cable guarantee seamless integration into your studio setup.
