The Yamaha SY77 is a professional music workstation that marked a turning point in the history of digital synthesis, combining the power of advanced FM synthesis with the versatility of sample-based synthesis in a single instrument. Designed for musicians, producers, and sound designers, it features an extremely advanced architecture capable of creating complex, dynamic, and deeply customizable sounds.

At the heart of the SY77 is the integration of AFM (Advanced Frequency Modulation) synthesis and AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2) technology. This combination blends the brightness and precision of FM synthesis with the realism of PCM samples, producing sounds ranging from acoustic pianos and orchestral ensembles to evolving pads, electronic basses, and experimental textures. The proprietary RCM (Realtime Convolution and Modulation) technology further expands creative possibilities by enabling direct interaction between samples and FM operators.

The 61-key velocity-sensitive keyboard with aftertouch provides expressive playability, while the 16-voice polyphony and 16-part multitimbrality allow complete arrangements to be created directly within the instrument. The 16,000-note onboard sequencer, integrated effects, and large backlit LCD display ensure a fast and intuitive workflow both in the studio and on stage.
