Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems such as no sound output or abnormal behavior, verify the connections before
checking the following.
Sound does not change when using the knobs or sliders.
• Is “ONLINE” indicated on the Editor window?
• Is the lamp at left of “ONLINE” indicator turned on?
If it is turned off, the settings related to communication between the MOTIF XS and a computer
may be wrong. Check the MIDI Port setting (page 40) on the MOTIF XS Editor VST, the MIDI IN/
OUT parameter setting in the MIDI display of the Utility mode on the MOTIF XS instrument, or the
cable connection between the MOTIF XS and the computer.
• Check the MIDI Port setting and Device No. setting. (page 41)
Bulk data is not transmitted/received successfully.
• Check the same points as above such as “ONLINE” indication and MIDI Port settings.
The appropriate Port is not shown in the Setup window.
• The MIDI Port in the Setup window can be selected from the Ports specified in the DAW
application. Check the MIDI Port settings in the DAW application.
• When “!” is shown at left of the Port name (e.g., “! Yamaha USB IN 0-1”), this indicates that the
previously used Port cannot be found or some Ports are not set properly. Check the MIDI Port
settings in the DAW application.
“No Audio Port Connection” error message appears.
• Set up the audio ports connected to the MOTIF XS in the VSTi Setup window (page 45).
The sounds of the MOTIF XS do not come to the Audio Mixer in the DAW application.

the same driver on the connected computer.
The current audio ports do not appear when clicking the [AUTO] button in the VSTi
Setup window.
• Make sure to put checkmarks to the “Display” for the current audio ports in the “Devices” menu
→ “Device Setup” → “VST audio system” in the DAW application.
The multi port audio from MOTIF XS does not come to the DAW application.
• Refer to “Starting the MOTIF XS Editor VST” (page 4).
