The YDS150 digital saxophone brings realistic saxophone playing ergonomics to the ever-expanding world of electronic music production. Featuring 73 built-in sounds and 5 effects borrowed from Yamaha’s iconic range of synth engines, the YDS150 is a must have performance tool for any woodwind instrumentalist looking to expand their horizons. The YDS150 is also MIDI capable through a micro-USB port allowing composer-performers to easily play in MIDI data into their chosen DAW or composing software.

IDEAL PRACTICE INSTRUMENT

A 3.5mm auxiliary input jack and Bluetooth audio receiver makes it easy to play along with your favourite backing tracks, all delivered through the headphone output or the front-mounted speaker. A soprano saxophone style bell is fitted to the end of the instrument to provide a unique aesthetic and acoustic appeal, and to enable the player to use most conventional soprano saxophone stands to carefully store or display their instrument.

DEDICATED YDS CONTROLLER APP

In addition to these features, Yamaha has developed a dynamic and intuitive application for both Android and iOS, which allows the player to adapt the instrument’s keywork, expression controls, and responses on-the-fly.
