  • Bert says the most funny yet product catching things in his demos I'm glad yamaha got HIM to do the MOTIF instead of someone else.

    BTW does anyone know how the name 'MOTIF' came to being?

  • Isn't about realism, is about FUN and creativity, and this instruments can do that (if you're good too).  Btw, I loved this arrange version much more than the real boring thing.

  • Seriously yamaha should consider Bert as priceless commodity....and pay him a lot with a lot of vacations.

  • @MrJackanthony - Not my words I'm afraid. I found this definition on a fantastic site called "TweakHedz Lab".

    It's extremely informative for anyone interested in music production.

  • @CelticProgeny That is a fantastic definition. Cheers mate. 

  • @MrJackanthony - What is a Motif? A motif is a fragment, a recurring succession of notes. One core idea underlying the Motif synth is that you can take a few Motifs, which may be phrases, arpeggios, patterns, drum beats, and link them up into a song. Hey, it worked for Beethoven, and many others since.

  • @TheLeonski dont worry midi is not that difficult I had never use Logic before but i think you only need to set up just as a midi imput device maybe you'll need to set up the remote if you want to and I think that the Motif XS transmits all the remote data through the port 4 hope it helps

  • for those motif experts out there i have a important question:

    I own a Macbook Pro & Motif XS6 now i have bought Logic Express 9 and heard you can use and record the instruments from the XS to Logic. My question is how do you do that. I have got a usb cord (same cord that works for printer to Computer) and dont know what to do... Please help me.... I have been trying for over 8-10 months and because i am only 13 years old it is quite difficult for me.

  • @Nickelback73 Bug-a-boo - Destiny's Child i think (but then berts version)

  • You can hear a Dave Weckl song at the end. :)))

  • realmente es impresionante , si tuviera el talento lo compraria pero mejor comienzo con uno sencillo jejejej no vale la pena invertir para no saber usarlo. es complicado se lo dejo a los que saben yo aun estoy aprendiendo.. jejej saludos.

  • 99% of people who buy Motif will not be able to use 10% of its capacity, because not everyone is as talented as Bert.
