As we had previously reported, the Yamaha Montage was discontinued some time ago. But the company had been very vague about the status of its flagship keyboard. Often denying that it had been discontinued when dealers were telling us that it had been, and the company admitting that no more stock would be shipped for the foreseeable future.
Today Yamaha has finally announced that Montage is no more.
Yamaha’s Blake Angelos made the following statement on yamahasynth.com:
“Today we are discontinuing the MONTAGE music synthesizer.
Since its launch in 2016, MONTAGE has provided musicians with new ways to express themselves. As much as we would have liked to, we cannot develop the current MONTAGE any further.
As a thank you we are providing a final set of content free of charge for all MONTAGE owners. This pack contains three acoustic pianos: a Yamaha U1 upright piano, a Yamaha C3 grand piano (AKA “Nashville Grand”) and a Felt Yamaha U1 upright piano. MONTAGE owners can download this content free of charge right here.

We appreciate the music you made as well as the passion you show for Yamaha Synthesizers. Thank you for your support!
And one more thing…the next generation MONTAGE synthesizer is coming in October. Stay tuned right here at YamahaSynth.com for more information.”
What comes next? Right now we do not know but as it is just three months away I am sure we will find out more info soon.
