mode displays.
Part

edited on the instrument (or computer), such as User Voices and
User Phrases.
Q
Quantize
A function that lets you “clean up” or “tighten” the timing of notes. The
MOTIF ES provides three different Quantize functions:
[1] One of the Jobs provided in the Song Job mode/Pattern Job
mode, which lets you “clean up” or “tighten” the timing of notes
you’ve recorded in Realtime recording (page 227).
[2] A function in the Song Record mode/Pattern Record mode, which
aligns the timing of notes automatically as you record (page 222).
[3] A parameter that determines the timing (such as measure, 1/2
note, and 1/4 note) by which the pattern actually switches when
changing a pattern during playback (page 262).
R

[1] Recording of your musical performance using the keyboard or
controllers to a Song track as MIDI events.

audio source (played back via the audio equipment such as a CD
player) to the internal memory as a Sample (Audio data).

S
Sequencer
An instrument or function that records, edits, modifies, and plays
back a musical performance in the form of MIDI messages. You can
use the MOTIF ES as a sequencer in the Song mode and Pattern
mode.
Source
On the MOTIF ES, “source” has three different meanings or uses:
[1] In copy operations, this refers to the original file or data which is to
be copied.
[2] In sampling operations, this refers to external audio which is to be
recorded (to the internal memory “destination” area) (page 172).
[3] In the Controller Set function, this refers to the controller that is
assigned to adjust a particular parameter (the “destination”)
(page 155).
Synchronization

devices (for example, two sequencers connected via MIDI), using the
timing clock of one to control the other.
T
Track
A memory location on the sequencer where musical performance
(MIDI event) and audio data is recorded.
Tune/Tuning
A process of matching the pitch of two or more instruments when
playing in an ensemble. Normally, A3 is tuned to 440 Hz. There are
two types of tune: Coarse Tune that adjusts the tuning in semitones
and Fine Tune that adjusts the tuning in cents. In addition, the MOTIF
ES has a Voice parameter (Micro Tuning) that lets you set the tuning
of each individual note of the keyboard.
U
User
Refers to the data you create via various functions on the MOTIF ES
(or computer).
There are various types of User data, such as User Voices and User

Preset Voices and Preset Phrases.
V

shipped from the factory is referred to as a “Preset Voice.” Voice data
you create or edit via the Voice Edit or the Sampling function, using
the preset waves supplied with the instrument or the wave obtained
via the Sampling function is referred to as a “User Voice.”
