Remote Control and MIDI settings
—[F5] Control
From the following displays, you can set parameters
related to the Remote Control function and MIDI settings.
Lets you specify the DAW software to be controlled by the
MOTIF XF.
1 DAW Type
Determines the DAW software to be controlled by the
MOTIF XF.
Settings: Cubase, Logic, Sonar, Digital Performer
n When the [REMOTE ON/OFF] lamp is turned on, simply
selecting a DAW type calls up the Remote settings
automatically.
From this display, you can set the MIDI related parameters.
1 Basic Receive Ch
Determines the MIDI receive channel when this synthesizer
is set to single-timbre tone generator mode (Voice/
Performance modes).
Settings: 1 – 16, omni, off
omni
When this is selected, all channel messages are received.
n In the multi-timbral tone generator mode (Song/Pattern
modes), each Mixing Part receives MIDI data according to its
assigned MIDI receive channel. This can be set in the Voice
display (page 194) of the Mixing Part Edit mode.
2 Keyboard Transmit Ch
Determines the MIDI channel over which the instrument
sends MIDI data (to an external sequencer, tone generator,
or other device). This parameter is available in the single-
timbre tone generator mode (Voice/Performance modes).
Settings: 1 – 16, off
n In the Song/Pattern mode, the MIDI data created by playing
the keyboard/knobs/wheels is sent to the tone generator block
or the external MIDI devices via the MIDI output channel of the
currently selected track. The Output Channels of each track
can be set in the Output Channel display (page 142) of the
Song Play mode.
3 Device Number
Determines the device number used by this synthesizer in
receiving or transmitting data. This number must match the
Device Number of the external MIDI device when
transmitting/receiving bulk data, parameter changes or
other system exclusive messages.
Settings: 1 – 16, all, off
all
When this is selected, system exclusive messages for all MIDI device
numbers are received. When system exclusive messages such as bulk
dump are transmitted from the MOTIF XF with this setting, the MOTIF
XF is recognized as Device Number 1.
off
When this is selected, system exclusive messages such as bulk dump
and parameter change cannot be transmitted or received. When you
try execute transmission or reception of system exclusive messages,
an error message appears.
4 MIDI In/Out
Determines which physical output/input terminal(s) will be
used for transmitting/receiving MIDI data.
Settings: MIDI, USB, FW (available only when the optional FW16E is
installed)
n The three terminal types above cannot be used at the same
time. Only one of them can be used to transmit/receive MIDI
data.
5 MIDI Sync
Determines whether Song/Pattern/Arpeggio playback will
be synchronized to the instrument’s internal clock or an
external MIDI clock.
Settings: Internal, MIDI, auto, MTC
internal
Synchronization to internal clock. Use this setting when this synthesizer
is to be used alone or as the master clock source for other equipment.
MIDI
MIDI Synchronization to a MIDI clock received from an external MIDI
instrument via MIDI.
auto
When MIDI clock is transmitted continuously from an external MIDI
device or computer, the internal clock of the MOTIF XF is not effective
and the MOTIF XF is synchronized with the external clock. When MIDI
clock is not transmitted from the external MIDI device or computer, the
internal clock of the MOTIF XF continues to run in sync with the latest
received tempo of the external MIDI device or computer (DAW
software). Note that the tempo cannot be changed on the MOTIF XF
when this value is selected. This setting is useful when you wish to
alternate between external clock and internal clock.
MTC (MIDI Time Code)
Synchronization to an MTC signal received via MIDI. MMC signals are
transmitted via MIDI. Use this setting when this synthesizer is to be
used as a MIDI slave, such as when synchronized to an MTC-capable
MTR. The MTC Sync function is available only in the Song mode.
