1 mLAN expansion board (mLAN16E2) cover (page
108)
The optional mLAN16E2 can be installed by removing this
cover. By installing a mLAN16E2 board, you can upgrade
your MOTIF-RACK XS for convenient and easy connection to
an IEEE1394-compatible computer.
2 USB TO HOST terminal (page 17)
The USB TO HOST terminal is used to connect this
instrument to the computer via the USB cable and allows you
to transfer MIDI data between the devices.
3 MIDI IN/OUT terminal
MIDI IN is for receiving control or performance data from
another MIDI device, such as an external sequencer, letting
you control the MOTIF-RACK XS from the connected
separate MIDI device. MIDI OUT is for transmitting all control
(via knobs and buttons) and playback data from the MOTIF-
RACK XS to another MIDI device, such as an external
sequencer.
When the “MIDI Soft Thru” parameter (page 100) is set to
“on” in the MIDI display of the Utility mode, MIDI messages
received via MIDI IN are forwarded through MIDI OUT.
4 DIGITAL OUTPUT terminal
Use this terminal to output digital signals via a coaxial (RCA-
pin) cable. The digital signal format is CD/DAT (S/P DIF). This
terminal outputs a digital signal of 44.1 kHz/24 bit. By using
this jack, you can record the keyboard performance or Song/
Pattern playback of this synthesizer to external media (e.g., a
CD recorder) with exceptionally high-quality sound—thanks
to the direct digital connection.
5 ASSIGNABLE OUTPUT L and R jacks
Line level audio signals are output from this instrument via
these phone jacks (1/4" mono phone plug). These outputs are
independent of the main output (at the L/MONO and R jacks
below), and can be freely assigned to any of the Drum Voice
keys or the Parts. This lets you route specific Voices or sounds
for processing with a favorite outboard effect unit. The Parts
which can be assigned to these jacks are as follows:
Audio Parts in the Voice mode (page 102)
Drum Voice keys to which drum/percussion instruments
have been assigned (page 85)
Any Part of a Multi* (pages 92 and pages 95)
*Includes the Audio Input Part (mLAN IN Part)
6 OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks (page 13)
Line level audio signals are output via these phone jacks. For
monophonic output, use just the L/MONO jack.
7 DC IN terminal (page 13)
Connect an AC power adaptor to this jack.
Use only the included power adaptor (or an equivalent
recommended by Yamaha). Use of a different adaptor may
result in equipment damage, overheating, or fire. Doing so
will also immediately void the product warranty, even if the
effective warranty period has not expired.

Cable Clip (page 13)
Wrap the DC output cable of the adaptor around this cable
clip to prevent accidental unplugging of the cable during
operation.

1 mLAN (IEEE1394) terminal 1, 2
For connecting mLAN devices or IEEE1394-compatible
(FireWire) devices via standard IEEE1394 (6-pin) cables.
n Yamaha recommends that you use an IEEE1394 cable with a length of
4.5 meters or less.
About mLAN
“mLAN” is a digital network designed for musical applications. It
uses and extends the industry standard IEEE1394 high
performance serial bus. By connecting the MOTIF-RACK XS to a
computer in a peer-to-peer connection via an IEEE1394 cable,
you can transfer audio data for all channels and MIDI data for all
ports simultaneously between the MOTIF-RACK XS and the
computer. This kind of connection, its capabilities and uses are
referred to as “mLAN” in this Owner’s Manual and the MOTIF-
RACK XS instrument.

USB
USB is an abbreviation for Universal Serial Bus. It is a serial
interface for connecting a computer with peripheral devices, and
enables much faster data transfer compared to conventional
serial port connections.
