Yamaha has released the Montage M ESP plugin for DAWs, a plugin version of their new Montage M. It purports to be a perfect replica of the Montage M. In this video, I create a multi-part performance, load it into my Montage M as well as the ESP plugin, and run tests: analog recording, digital USB recording, and ESP recording. Play along with my challenge and see if you can tell the difference!
