Main Features
Wide range of
dynamic and authentic voices
. Use
the
Category Search
function to quickly call up the
sounds you want, based on their instrument type.
Performance mode
lets you use four different voices
together — in layers or in a keyboard split.
Integrated Sampling Sequencer
— seamlessly
combines audio and MIDI recording.
•
Full
Sample recording and editing
features, and up
to 512MB of sample memory (with optional DIMM
modules).
•
Wide
data compatibility
lets you load AIFF and WAV
files, as well as samples and program/voice data
from other popular samplers, such as the Yamaha A-
series.
•
Convenient
Resampling
function lets you sample
the sound of the MOTIF itself directly. Play your own
melodies, riffs and rhythms — and use them as
samples.
•
Unique
Slice feature
automatically chops up your
rhythms and riffs into their individual beats and notes.
This lets you manipulate the component parts of your
sample loops as MIDI data, and gives you the power
to easily change tempo and even the rhythmic feel,
without disturbing the pitch or sound quality.
Extensive
effect processing
, with Reverb (20 types),
Chorus (49 types), eight separate Insertion blocks
each of which has two blocks
(total 116 types),
Master Effect (8 types), and a digital equalizer (3-band
Part EQ and 5-band Master EQ).
Comprehensive
real-time control with four knobs
and four sliders
— letting you adjust filter, levels,
effects, EG, and more, while you play.
Pattern mode
functions let you craft different rhythmic
sections and riffs as individual elements — which you
can easily and intuitively combine in real time to create
full rhythm tracks.
In addition to being able to create User voices in the
Voice mode, you can create special
Mixing voices
for
Songs and Patterns. These voices can be edited and
stored in the Song/Pattern mode, making it
exceptionally easy and convenient to create voices for
use with Songs and Patterns.
The versatile
Arpeggio
feature automatically plays a
variety of sequenced phrases in response to the keys you
play. This function is especially powerful with drum voices
— letting you easily call up various rhythm patterns at the
touch of a key, and providing instant inspiration for song
creation and performance. When used with normal
voices, the Arpeggio phrase changes harmonically and
melodically with the chords you play, giving you intuitive
control over the patterns as you compose or perform.
Arpeggios can be triggered not only according to the keys
you play, but also by how strongly you play them — for
even greater performance power.

Once you’ve collected all the audio samples, loops,
MIDI data, and patterns you need for your song, use
Pattern Chain
to arrange the pieces in real time. This
hands-on approach makes it easier than ever to come
up with great ideas and amazing songs.
Song Scene
is another powerful tool that lets you take
“snapshots” of the sequencer track settings (such as
pan, volume, track mute and so on). Then, during
playback or recording, simply switch among the
Scenes for instant, dynamic changes.
Master mode
— for using the MOTIF ES as a master
keyboard controller (with independent Zones), and for
easily reconfiguring the instrument between Voice/
Performance play and Song/Pattern play in live
applications.
Exceptionally
easy-to-understand interface
with two-
tiered operation buttons: [F1] - [F6] and [SF1] - [SF5]
Remote Control
— for operating your favorite
sequencing software from the panel controls. Mute
tracks, control transport (Play, Stop, Record, etc.), mix
both MIDI and audio tracks (up to 16) with this
instrument’s knobs and sliders, pan the tracks, control
EQ, and tweak effect sends — all without ever touching
the mouse.
Three
Modular Synthesis Plug-in System
slots let
you upgrade the MOTIF ES with a completely new
synthesizer or sound-processing engine. These Plug-in
boards give you more voices, more effects, more
polyphony and more instrument parts. Plus, special
Plug-in voices have already been programmed and
stored to the MOTIF ES, ready to be played as soon as
you install the proper board.
A full rear panel of input/output connections provides
maximum interfacing flexibility. These include
Assignable Outputs, A/D Inputs, MIDI, two USB
connectors and a memory card slot. Moreover, an
optional AIEB2 or mLAN16E board can be installed.
The
mLAN interface
is particularly powerful — making
it possible to transfer both digital audio and MIDI data
via a single broadband cable.
The instrument features
two USB connectors
— USB
TO HOST for connecting to computer, and USB TO
DEVICE for connecting to storage devices, such as a
hard disk drive or flash disk.
Included software
— the CD-ROM accompanying
your instrument (Tools for MOTIF ES) features a variety
of convenient and powerful programs for using the
MOTIF ES with a computer. These include the
Voice
Editor
which provides comprehensive, easy-to-use
editing features and parameters, and a
Multi Part
Editor
for intuitive editing of Song/Pattern Mixing
parameters from your computer screen.
