nIn addition to the file types above, Yamaha A5000/A4000/A3000/SU700 files and AKAI S1000/S3000 files can be loaded to the MOTIF ES.
nWhen files of the Yamaha A series samplers (A5000/4000/3000) are loaded, an “S” mark by the file name indicates the file contains only sample data and a
“P” mark indicates program data (voice related parameters and so on). When entering the File mode from the Voice/Performance mode, the “P” marked file
can be loaded and the following two types can be selected instead of Waveform or Key Bank.
• Type 1: Only one sample is imported to a certain waveform. This type utilizes the various settings of the MOTIF ES, and the parameters corresponding to
the four elements are also loaded. Extra samples are not loaded.
• Type 2: Several samples are imported to a certain waveform. Parameters corresponding to the four elements are not loaded to the MOTIF ES. Extra
samples are not loaded.
Data Compatibility with the MOTIF 6/MOTIF 7/MOTIF 8
Among the data created on the MOTIF 6/MOTIF 7/MOTIF 8, Voices, Waveforms, Sample Voices can be loaded to the MOTIF ES6/MOTIF ES7/
MOTIF ES8.
• Voices
A specified Voice in a file (extension: W2A, W2V) that is saved to the storage device as “All” or “AllVoice” type on the MOTIF can be individually
selected and loaded to the MOTIF ES. Set the TYPE in the [F3] LOAD display to “Voice” and execute the Load procedure.
Likewise, a file (extension: W2V) that is saved to the SmartMedia/USB storage device as “AllVoice” type on the MOTIF can be loaded to the
MOTIF ES. Set the TYPE in the [F3] LOAD display to “AllVoice” and execute the Load procedure.
In addition, Voice Editor files (extension: W2E) can be loaded to the MOTIF ES. Set the TYPE in the [F3] LOAD display to “Voice Editor” and
execute the Load procedure.
nThe Voices loaded to the MOTIF ES 6/7/8 may not produce the exact same sound as those on the original MOTIF 6/7/8, since the contents of the preset
Waveforms and the Effect structure are different between the two instrument series.
