To celebrate the synthesizer’s history and mark the launch of its latest flagship synth, MONTAGE White, Yamaha has created a new film, “The Yamaha Synth Story,” that takes viewers on a ride through decades of the Yamaha synths that created today’s music world.

This epic journey begins in the ‘70s with the legendary Yamaha CS-80, one of the most celebrated analog synths ever invented. The film takes you through the introduction of FM Synthesis and the Yamaha DX7, the technology behind the sounds of the ‘80s. The story segues into the ‘90s and on into the 21st century to chronicle the rise of powerful synth workstations like EX5 and MOTIF that influenced entire musical genres from pop to hip hop and more. Finally, The Yamaha Synth Story moves into the present with the rise of digital technology and then into the music of the future, with the new MONTAGE White.

There’s also a soundtrack, created entirely with vintage Yamaha synths. “We have an amazing Synth Space at Yamaha with almost every synthesizer we’ve ever made,” said Nate Tschetter, marketing manager of Yamaha Synthesizers. “We set our composers loose in there to record the soundtrack. They were like a bunch of kids in a candy store; they didn’t want the session to end.”

Check out the video here.
