MOTIF Introduction
Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for your purchase of the Yamaha MOTIF Music Production Synthesizer!
You now own what is perhaps the best-sounding, most versatile, and certainly most powerful synthesizer and total music
production instrument on the planet.
We strove to put virtually all our synthesizer technology and music making know-how into one instrument — and we
succeeded. The new MOTIF not only gives you the latest and greatest sounds and rhythms (as well as the ability to create
and sample your own), it gives you powerful, easy-to-use tools for playing, combining and controlling these dynamic
sounds/rhythms — in real time, as you perform!
Take time to look through this manual carefully. It’s packed with important information on how to get the most from this
amazing instrument.
Dive in now and enjoy!

About the included CD-ROM
The accompanying CD-ROM features special software for use with the MOTIF. Included is a Voice Editor, which gives you
