Recording and playback using an external MIDI sequencer
In this connection example, song data on the external MIDI sequencer plays the sounds of the tone generator on the MOTIF ES.
The external song data can also be recorded to Song/Pattern tracks on the MOTIF ES.
In this case, make sure that the MOTIF ES is set to the Song mode or Pattern mode. If the instrument is set to the Voice mode or
to the Performance mode in which multi-channel MIDI messages are not recognized, the external sequence data (containing
multi-channel data) will not play back properly on the MOTIF ES. In addition, you may have to make certain MIDI
synchronization settings (see below).
Controlling another MIDI instrument via MIDI THRU
If you have more synthesizers and tone generators than MIDI ports, you can use the MIDI THRU jack to connect and control
additional devices. Here, the playback data of a MIDI sequencer is used to play the sounds of another MIDI instrument
(connected to the MIDI THRU connector) as well as the MOTIF ES. The MIDI THRU connector simply redirects any received
MIDI data (via MIDI IN) to connected instrument.
In this case, make sure that the MOTIF ES is set to the Song mode or Pattern mode. If the instrument is set to the Voice mode or
to the Performance mode in which multi-channel MIDI messages are not recognized, the external sequence data (containing
multi-channel data) will not play back properly on the MOTIF ES. In addition, you may have to make certain MIDI
synchronization settings (see below). Likewise, make sure to set the MIDI tone generator (connected to the MIDI THRU
connector) to the multi-timbral mode.
Beside, you need to set the MIDI synchronization related parameters of the MOTIF ES to use of the external clock from the
following display.
Synchronizing with an external MIDI instrument (Master and Slave)
The Songs and Patterns of this instrument can be synchronized to the playback of an external MIDI sequencer, To do this,
one device must be set to internal clock operation and the other (as well as all other devices to be controlled) to external
clock. The device set to internal clock serves as a reference for all connected devices, and is referred to as the “master”
instrument. The connected devices set to external clock are referred to as “slaves.”
When recording playback data of the external MIDI sequencer to a Song/Pattern of the MOTIF ES in the above connection
example, make sure to set the MIDI synchronization parameter to the use of external clock in the Utility mode with the
following operation.
nFor details on how to record the playback data of an external MIDI sequencer to a Song on the MOTIF ES, see page 143.
