im not with yamahas at all my homie just copped the motif es 8 and this keyboard is complicated as fuck i have to learn it so i can show him i havent really messed with it that much so please dont think im new to this shit

whats the deal on the patches?seems like my old motif rack has way more patches and sicker ones!am i finding all of its sounds?i go to pattern when i made a beat and there was only a 5 groups with 128 sounds in each am i just not finding the rest?(minus gm)

what cards and shit can he buy to blow this bitch out with sounds?i noticed they had rom cards and sample librarie cds

does anyone suggest gettin the motif hard drive or is it a pain in the ass?should he stick to regular memory sticks?

Pimpin I don't really understand what you're saying.

Motif ES rack has the most patches, followed by the motif es workstation, followed by the motif rack but the least amount is found in teh motif classic workstation.

pre 1
pre 2
pre 3
pre 4
pre 5
pre 6

All contain 128 patches

user 1
user 2

both contain 128

Press PATTERN
Press MIXING
Press EDIT and press a # from 1-16 from the track select group.


You'll be able to cycle hrough everything that way but....If you believe these are all the sounds the keyboard has to offer you're wrong. Each PATCH consists of 1-4 tones/blocks. Why don't you change some of those tones/blocks or cut some of them ON?

www.motifator.com . The board takes PLG boards. Blow it out according to needs.

If he intends to sample he MUST have memory installed:
