The Yamaha MU128 is a Yamaha XG and General MIDI sound module in the Yamaha MU series introduced by Yamaha in 1998.
The MU128 doubles the height of the unit versus preceding MU series modules in order to accommodate three XG Plug-in System boards, and doubles the number of voices of polyphony and available parts.[2] It also adds a few more presets and one drumkit relative to the MU100. The manual and faceplate no longer mention the C/M mode, so presumably this was removed, though the C/M banks in the TG300B mode are still present. The increased size is also used to offer buttons for selecting presets by category,[2] and an encoder wheel, providing improved convenience.
The Version 2.0 software update can be installed to add General MIDI 2 support.[2]
