Guess we are making Motorboat engines now
Yamaha started as an Organ and piano manufacturer.
Hence why their logo is 3 tuning forks.
BMW started off making aircraft engines over a hundred years ago when powered aircraft were first being developed … which is why their logo is a circle with four different coloured quarters, it’s the image of a spinning propeller
Just don’t ask them what they were doing between 1933 and 1945
Nintendo started off making playing cards, that’s why their logo is a [Remainder of comment removed due to Cease and Desist]

Silent movies with Chaplin?
This is a misconception. The chequered blue and white is part of a Bavarian flag, but due to some legal issues they had to straighten it.
Business, ofc
The image of a propeller is from an ad they once ran, but the logo existed beforehand.
I think it’s also a reference to the bavarian flag.
Yes … and because of that, for the longest time, because so many people repeated it, I thought the acronym stood for Bavarian Motor Works … its actually ‘Bayerische Motoren Werke’
Which is literally just German for Bavarian Motor Works.

God damit! … I was right all along … just in the wrong language!
But also resemble a motor with three pistons.
That’s awesome
Then they moved to motorcycle forks
Then they moved to motorcycle forks
Maybe they can do Y-Wings next.
The meme has it backwards … worker should be saying … ‘I guess we produce motorcycles now’
“I guess we are getting history backwards now”
No idea. Yamaha was doing pianos long before they were doing motorcycles, so it can’t be them. I can’t think of a company that started with motorcycles and then moved into pianos.
It’s Yamaha. I have that piano.
They co-developed the V10 engine for Lexus LFA super car. Also they were the acoustic engineers for the engine. https://global.yamaha-motor.com/showroom/cp/collection/am_lfa/
Could be basically any japanese company 😅
Toyota made looms once.
From looms to wrooms, why not!
Nintendo was founded in 1889 and originally made a type of playing card
Don’t forget the yakuza money laundry made by Nintendo
If you dig back enough, literally every Japanese corpo roots go to some usury house or gambling den in Edo period. Or worse, to aristocratic family. Or both.
Yamaha, Mitsubishi and a few others.
Yamaha
Panasonic also makes bikes and pianos. Samsung does too. I think even Sony has a motorcycle concept so add them to the list.
Samsung also builds ships
Don’t forget synthesizers!
Why does the factory worker look so phallic?
He’s a real dickhead
Kawasaki did toy pianos does that count
Yamaha has the beginner wind instrument market by the balls right now. Conn-Selmer became garbage over the last 15 years or so, and Jupiter has been known to be “the nicest dogshit in the business” for some time. Yamaha literally just had to maintain the same level of instrument quality while the former “great brands” became cheap stencil crap.
Don’t they make some nice stuff too, like the Tyros/Genos workstations?
I can’t speak to the quality but I’d imagine they’re great. Most composers and arrangers I know use a pretty simple MIDI keyboard setup, or have become keyboard power users in their software and use a QWERTY keyboard.
Personally, I’m in group 2 (QWERTY keyboard) I have a digital piano at the workstation to test out voicings, but when I actually write I’m using keybindings on a QWERTY keyboard. Full disclosure - most of the writing I do is for schools, so I use notation software.
Yeah, over here arranger keyboards are the “wedding band special” pretty much, where the keyboard fills in for half the band.
