Yamaha Corporation announces the release of a new wind instrument product, the newly developed digital saxophone YDS-150!


Key Features

1) Play the saxophone anytime, anywhere - even if it's in the living room, or at night
Digital technology enables volume adjustment over a range of 15 steps, allowing one to enjoy playing the saxophone anytime, anywhere - even if it's in the living room, or at night. You can also connect a set of headphones to play in total silence and focus completely on your performance without worrying about others around you, even if you had previously given up playing the saxophone because of its loudness. In addition, you can use the dedicated app to freely adjust the volume, tone, and even fingering.
2) Experience playing in an innovative, new way - simply blow into the instrument to produce gorgeous saxophone sound
Despite the instrument having a mouthpiece designed the same as that of an acoustic saxophone, you can still produce gorgeous sound by simply blowing into the mouthpiece and playing the keys with correct fingering, without needing to overcome the initial hurdle to performance known as embouchure (mouth shape). Volume and tone can also be adjusted by changing the intensity of your blowing. The YDS-150 uses sampled sounds of Yamaha's soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, meticulously recorded to produce 56 saxophone voices, including variations, in addition to other sounds such as synthesizers for a total of 73 instrument sounds. Perform music in virtually any genre using your favorite instrument sounds.

3) Experience authentic saxophone design and resonance
The YDS-150 uses the same key layout, mouthpiece, and thumb rest as an acoustic saxophone to deliver a natural playing experience. It also features a real brass bell and is the same length as a soprano saxophone in order to provide optimal balance. The newly developed Integrated Bell Acoustic System adds authentic, luxurious resonance to give the player the same seamless sense of expressive unity experienced with an acoustic saxophone.

Development Background
Development of the YDS-150 began with a desire to create a saxophone that could be played more easily and with more freedom by even more people. All of us have wished we could play a favorite tune at least once in our lives, and the YDS-150 makes that possible with a fusion of Yamaha's acoustic and digital technologies. The instrument's broad range of sound and rich expressiveness make it suitable for experienced saxophone players and beginners alike.

About Integrated Bell Acoustic System (Patented)
Integrated Bell Acoustic System (IBAS) is an acoustic system developed specifically for the YDS-150 which reproduces the unique physical feedback (sound resonance and vibration) of an acoustic saxophone. The system consists of speaker units, an acoustic pipe, and a real brass bell, enabling it to effectively deliver sound resonance and vibration back to the player's mouth and fingertips.

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.
