Compare Yamaha MODX8+ and MODX8
Synthesizers Yamaha MODX8+ and Yamaha MODX8 have similar features such as 88 full-size hammer action keys, 128-note polyphony, and a color display with a touchscreen. However, the MODX8+ offers 2227 onboard sounds compared to 2000 in the MODX8, which may be important for musicians looking for more variety in sounds. Both synthesizers have the same power consumption and dimensions, but differences in the number of sounds may influence the choice depending on the user's needs.

Glossary
Built-in timbres
The number of built-in sounds provided in the synthesizer.
The number of timbres is often described as the number of instruments that a given model can imitate. However, this is not entirely true — rather, this parameter can be called "the number of instruments and sound effects." For example, the same instrument — an electric guitar — with different "gadgets" (distortion, overdrive) will sound differently, and in the synthesizer each such gadget will be considered a separate timbre. The “drums” timbre usually combines different types of drums and other percussion instruments — in other words, it allows you to portray both the “bass drum” and the cymbals without switching settings, just by pressing the desired keys. And some timbres may not have analogues among real instruments at all.
The more built-in timbres, the more extensive the possibilities of the synthesizer, the more diverse the sounds that can be extracted from it. At the same time, in high-end models like workstations (see "Type"), this number can reach 1000 or even more.
