YDS CONTROLLER

This dedicated app enhances the performance of the YDS-122 and further expands the range of sound creation—and includes instrument settings and sound editing. You can make detailed settings intuitively and visually from the app, that cannot be done on the instrument itself.


Rec'n'Share

YDS-152 and YDS-122 can be connected to the free Rec’n’Share app for smart devices from Yamaha, making it possible to play along with audio data stored on the device and capture the performance as a sound recording or movie that can be shared online. Rec’n’Share includes a function that can change the playback tempo of the original music, an AB repeat function that repeats playback of a specified A-B section, a function that can analyze and add an appropriate click track to the original music, and other features that make practice more productive and enjoyable.

 

What are the differences between the YDS-122 and YDS-120?

What are the differences between the YDS-152 and YDS-122?
The main differences are the playing feel and the way the instrument connects to the YDS Controller app.

The YDS-152 features Yamaha's Integrated Bell Acoustic System with a yellow brass bell. Sound and vibration resonate throughout the instrument, providing a playing experience and sense of unity similar to an acoustic saxophone.

The YDS-122 uses a lightweight bell with a simple horn-type acoustic mechanism, making it more accessible and easy to handle.

The YDS-152 supports a Bluetooth MIDI connection to the YDS Controller app, while the YDS-122 requires a USB connection.
