MOTIF XF Owner’s Manual

While experimenting and playing around with Arpeggios in the Performance mode, you may find some rhythm patterns and
phrases that you like, and you may want to store them for future recall. The best and easiest way to capture these is to record
your keyboard playing to a Song or Pattern.
Performance Record Structure
By using the Performance Record function, your keyboard
performance for Parts 1 – 4 will be recorded to tracks 1 – 4 of
the Song/Pattern respectively. Controller/Knob operations
and Arpeggio playback as well as your keyboard playing in
the Performance mode can be recorded to the specified
track as MIDI events.
Recording the Melody and
Arpeggio playback to the Song
When the Song is selected as destination of the
Performance recording, you can record your keyboard
playing with the Arpeggio without having to worry about
measure limits or running out of recording space. It is a good
idea, for example, to record your keyboard playing, freely
calling up various Arpeggio types, then editing the Song
later as necessary. You may even want to keep the recorder
‘running’ as you improvise, then listen back later and pick
out the best parts to create your final Song. Try recording as
shown in the instructions below.
1 In the Performance Play mode, select a
Performance for recording.
2 Press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button so that the
lamp lights.
3 Press the [] (Record) button to call up the
Performance Record display.
4 Set the following parameters as required in the
Performance Record display.
1 Sequencer Mode = “song”
By setting this parameter to “song,” you can record your
keyboard performance to the Song.
2 Song number
Select a destination song. Executing Performance recording
overwrites and erases all the previously recorded data of the
specified Song. Make sure to select a Song which contains
no data.
3 Time Signature = “4/4”
Set the same value here as that of the Arpeggio type.
Normally, set this to “4/4.”
4 Tempo
Set the desired tempo of the metronome and Arpeggio for
recording.
5 Key On Start Switch = (on)
When set to “on,” recording starts immediately when you
press any note on the keyboard. Set this parameter to “on”
when using the Arpeggio.
NOTE
indicates the off status, whereas indicates the
on status.
6 Copy Performance Parameters = on
Enter the checkmark when you wish to copy the parameter
settings for Parts 1 – 4 of the Performance to Parts 1 – 4 of
the Song Mixing.
7 Click O (on)
Press the [F5] button to turn the metronome on if you wish to
use the metronome.
5 Press any note to start recording.
Play the keyboard in time with the metronome. You can
change the Arpeggio type and settings by pressing any of
the [SF1] – [SF5] buttons while recording.
6 Press the [] (Stop) button to stop recording and
return to the Performance Play display.
