! FW Monitor Setup
Determines the audio signal flow for monitoring the sound
when using the MOTIF XF with DAW software installed on a
computer connected to the MOTIF XF via an IEEE1394
cable.
n You will need to properly set up the DAW software in addition
to making the settings here. For details, refer to the manual of
the DAW software.
Settings: stand alone, with PC, with PC (DirectMonitor)
stand alone
This should be selected when you are using the MOTIF XF alone or are
not using the DAW software even with a computer connected to the
MOTIF XF via an IEEE1394 cable. When this is selected, the audio
signal of the MOTIF XF will be output directly via the OUTPUT L/MONO
and R jacks normally.
with PC
This should be selected when you are using the MOTIF XF as an audio
device with the DAW software. When this is selected, the audio signal
of the MOTIF XF will be output to the DAW software on a computer via
an IEEE1394 cable, merged and mixed with the DAW sound, returned
back to the MOTIF XF, then output via the OUTPUT L/MONO and R
jacks. Selecting this allows you to apply VST Effects within the DAW
software to the MOTIF XF sound.
with PC (DirectMonitor)
This should be selected when recording your keyboard performance to
the DAW software on the computer. The audio signal of the MOTIF XF
will be output directly via the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks with the
audio signal sent from the DAW software via an IEEE1394 cable. Keep
in mind that the Rec Monitor of the DAW software should be set to “off”
in order to prevent “double” sound from occurring.
n When “with PC” is selected, there may be a short delay
between when you play the keyboard and when you hear the
resulting sound.
n Set this parameter to “stand alone” when the MOTIF XF is not
connected to an external device via an IEEE1394 cable.
