MOTIF XS Owner’s Manual
84
The playback data of an external MIDI sequencer is used to play the sounds of another MIDI instrument (connected to the
MIDI THRU connector) along with the MOTIF XS. The MIDI THRU connector simply redirects any received MIDI data (via
MIDI IN) to connected instrument.
In this case, make sure that the MOTIF XS 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 XS. 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. In addition, you’ll need to enable the MOTIF XS to respond to external clock, set from
the MIDI display (page 267) in the Utility mode.
Connecting to an MTR (Multi-track Recorder)
Since this synthesizer can receive the MTC (MIDI Time Code) and can transmit the MMC (MIDI Machine Control), you can
produce music by synchronizing to an MTC- or MMC-compatible multi-track recording device. You can use two types of
MTR control (illustrated below) by setting the MIDI Sync to MTC in the MIDI display (page 267) of the Utility mode.
nMTC and MMC are available only in the Song mode.
After receiving the MTC signal transmitted from the MTR by starting the MTR playback, the Song of the MOTIF XS will start at
the moment the MTC Start Offset time set in the MIDI display (page 267) of the Utility mode is received.
nMTC (MIDI Time Code) allows simultaneous synchronization of multiple audio devices via standard MIDI cables. It includes data
corresponding to hours, minutes, seconds, and frames. The MOTIF XS does not transmit MTC. An instrument such as the Yamaha AW2400
which can transmit MTC is necessary as an MTC master.
