( Bundle) - MKS Twenty + Real B3 Organ - Yamaha MONTAGE / M - Description
MKS-Twenty + Real B3 Organ Bundle for Yamaha MONTAGE / MONTAGE M brings together two cornerstone keyboard sound families that perform very different jobs in an arrangement but naturally belong in the same player’s setup.
The bundle combines MKS-Twenty, featuring 16 performances and approximately 550 MB of sample data, with Real B3 Organ, featuring 16 presets, one Live Set and 167 MB of sample data. Together, they provide 32 dedicated keyboard sounds and 717 MB of sampled material focused on piano, electric piano and organ performance.
This is precisely where the value of the bundle lies: these are not two variations of the same instrument.
MKS-Twenty gives you attack, definition and harmonic articulation. Real B3 Organ gives you sustain, body and continuous harmonic movement.
Used together, they form a much more complete keyboard section.
MKS-Twenty – the polished piano and EP side
MKS-Twenty is inspired by the celebrated Roland MKS-20 piano module and recreates the unmistakable family of piano, electric piano and keyboard sounds associated with that era.
Its 16 performances cover three MKS-style piano variations, electric pianos, harpsichord, vibe, clavinet and a range of layered combinations incorporating TX-style colours, brass, pads and strings.
The character is clear and immediate: defined attack, bright presence and a distinctly ’80s keyboard identity that remains highly effective in modern arrangements.
These sounds are particularly useful where the keyboard needs to establish the rhythmic and harmonic framework of a song: chord parts, rhythmic comping, ballads, pop arrangements, gospel parts, funk-inspired playing and retro productions.
The layered performances extend the concept beyond straightforward piano emulation, allowing MKS-style tones to sit inside richer keyboard combinations without losing their recognizable attack.
Real B3 Organ – sustained power and expressive control
Real B3 Organ covers the other essential side of a professional keyboard setup.
The library contains 16 organ presets, created from accurately sampled notes of a Hammond B3, with 167 MB of sample data and a dedicated Live Set.
The collection covers rock, blues, jazz, gospel, reggae and soul-oriented registrations, ranging from softer and jazzier sounds to driven rock and full-drawbar settings.
Thirteen presets include their effects directly, while three additional versions are designed for use with an external rotary simulator or Leslie cabinet.
Performance control is an important part of the library:
-
Assign SW1 – Chorus On/Off
-
Assign SW2 – Organ Click On/Off where supported
-
Mod Wheel – Rotary speed control
-
Super Knob – Additional distortion
-
Dedicated scenes for drawbar-setting changes
This gives the organ section a much more playable role than a static sampled patch.
Why the two libraries work so well together
The usefulness of this bundle becomes obvious in an actual arrangement.
An MKS-style piano or electric piano provides attack, rhythmic definition and harmonic clarity. A B3 organ provides sustain, harmonic density and background movement.
One articulates the rhythm.
The other fills the space between it.
That relationship is fundamental across pop, rock, gospel, R&B, soul, blues and jazz, where piano/EP and Hammond-style organ frequently appear in the same production while performing completely different musical functions.
Rather than competing for the same role, they complement one another.
A complete live keyboard section
For live performers, the bundle provides two of the most useful keyboard families inside the same MONTAGE environment.
MKS-Twenty can handle rhythmic piano parts, electric piano chords, clavinet-style articulation and brighter layered sounds, while Real B3 Organ covers sustained beds, blues and gospel accompaniment, organ leads and driven rock parts.
This also makes the libraries useful when creating custom splits and layered setups.
A player can use the organ as the sustained foundation while placing an MKS piano or EP in another keyboard range for more articulated material. The reverse approach can be equally effective, depending on the arrangement.
The result is a much broader live vocabulary without requiring two libraries that duplicate the same timbral territory.
Built for studio arrangements as well as stage work
The same complementarity matters in a mix.
The more percussive character of MKS-style piano sounds can establish the front edge of chords and rhythmic figures, while the organ can provide a smoother sustained layer underneath or around them.
This makes the combination particularly effective when building dense band arrangements where every keyboard sound must have a clearly defined musical role.
For studio musicians, arrangers and producers, the bundle therefore provides a practical way to move between bright piano articulation and warm organ sustain without leaving the same workstation.
32 sounds, two fundamental keyboard identities
This bundle is not about increasing the preset count with similar material.
It is about covering two essential categories properly.
MKS-Twenty contributes the unmistakable character of vintage digital piano and electric keyboard sounds.
Real B3 Organ contributes the harmonic richness, movement and performance behaviour of one of the most important organ traditions in modern music.
Together, they create a 32-sound, 717 MB keyboard collection that is equally relevant to gigging players, cover musicians, studio producers and composers working across classic and contemporary styles.
For Yamaha MONTAGE / MONTAGE M users looking to strengthen the core of their keyboard setup, MKS-Twenty + Real B3 Organ delivers two complementary instruments with distinct roles, recognizable musical identities and immediate practical value.
