and 2) and Drum User Voices – this way you can
select sounds by name in the Editor. Each Editor
file will archive not only your current MIX it will
save the entire internal USER Voice set in one
neat file (.m4e). Alternatively, you can ‘import’
other Motif ES Voice Editor files (.w7e) – so you
can access any Voice libraries you may have
accumulated.
• Under the FILE pulldown find the “Import Voice…”
selection
• This will allow you to browse your computer for your
libraries of Voice Editor files (.w7e). It is highly
recommended that as you create and acquire new
Voice banks for your Motif ES that you archive them
as Voice Editor files for this purpose. Importing a
Voice file that represents your current Motif ES User
Voices is much faster and is more efficient.
Later in the article we will come back to discuss
the use of the Multi-Part Editor.
