Portable Combo Organ with Vintage Organ Models, Real Drawbars & Rotary Speaker Effects
The Yamaha Reface YC Mini Virtual Organ delivers the unmistakable sound and feel of classic combo and tonewheel organs in an incredibly compact and portable instrument. Featuring five authentic organ models, nine real drawbars and a superb rotary speaker effect, the Reface YC captures the character of vintage organs while offering the convenience and reliability of modern digital technology.
Designed for gigging musicians, worship players, keyboardists and producers, the Reface YC provides instant access to iconic organ sounds without the size, weight or maintenance of vintage instruments.
At Rimmers Music, we think the Reface YC is one of the most enjoyable portable organs available today. It offers an authentic playing experience with intuitive controls, excellent sound quality and remarkable portability.
Why Choose the Yamaha Reface YC?
The Yamaha Reface YC is built for musicians who love the sound and feel of vintage organs but need a compact instrument that can travel anywhere.
Rather than relying on menus and screens, Yamaha has equipped the Reface YC with real physical drawbars, dedicated controls for percussion, vibrato and rotary speaker effects, allowing you to shape your sound exactly as you would on a traditional organ.
Whether you're performing jazz, gospel, blues, rock, soul or modern worship music, the Reface YC delivers expressive organ performance wherever you play.
Five Authentic Vintage Organ Models
At the heart of the Yamaha Reface YC is Yamaha's Organ Flutes sound engine, faithfully recreating five distinctive organ styles.
These include:
- H – American Tonewheel Organ
- V – British Transistor Organ
- F – Italian Transistor Organ
- A – Japanese Transistor Organ
- Y – Yamaha YC-45D Combo Organ
Each model has its own unique tonal character, allowing you to move effortlessly between warm jazz tones, gritty rock organs and bright vintage transistor sounds.
With 128-note polyphony, every note rings clearly, even during complex performances.
Nine Real Drawbars for Hands-On Performance
One of the standout features of the Reface YC is its nine physical drawbars.
These allow you to shape your organ sound in real time, just like a traditional tonewheel organ.
Dedicated controls include:
- 9 Drawbars
- Percussion
- Vibrato
- Rotary Speaker Speed
- Distortion
- Reverb
The result is an authentic playing experience with immediate hands-on control over every aspect of your sound.
HQ Mini Keyboard
The Reface YC features Yamaha's premium 37-note HQ Mini keyboard.

The keyboard is ideal for:
- Organ techniques

Unlike many compact keyboards, the HQ Mini keys offer a comfortable playing experience that quickly inspires confidence.

- Battery-powered operation
- Lightweight 1.9kg construction
