Dominique:
I am attaching a file that will help you learn the button layout of the motif.
Also, I forgot to mention that once you enable the USB port and turn local
control off, you then need to press either "song" or the "Pattern" button and
then move the wheel until you get to an empty song or pattern. This is needed
to use the motif as a multi-channal instrument in Sonar. You will need to do
that everytime you want to go into Sonar.
There is also a list for blind musicians who use the motif keyboards. I think
you can subscribe to the list by going to:
www.freelists.org/list/moaccess
You will get good information through that list.

Hi. I have a Midi keyboard, with quote 25 keys. Yes, I said 25. Not mutch ay? I
know. But any ways. I use it some times to lay down drumbs, and when I set the
delay down to 15 it buffers really bad, some times. When it's working fine,
it's not. And I can play but some times when I open the project at a later
time, it doesn, it just buffers. Why's this?
And I need to know what buttons are what, on the motif to get it up on midi.
Whare's the voice button, the utility button, and I now whare the f1 through 6
and sf1 to 6 are, but what about that remoat on slash off button? Next to the
screen?
What order do I go?
Song, then like, whare should I go next?
What position?
From a blind way of fiewing things?
How do you know whare to go, and what to push?
I
'm still trying to get the hang of the bar count before recording a pattern.
Lol

Did you experiment with the parameters? It's a little fiddly but once you get
the hang of it you shouldn't have any problems.
May the peace of God which passes all understanding gard your heart and mind
in Christ Jesus.
God bless you!

Motif xs button layout.
October 20, 2007.
Edition 1.
Introductory notes:
This document was written with braille users in mind. It may be possible to put
braille labels underneath some of the buttons. Please keep in mind that this
document was created based on the layout of an xs 8. The 76 and 61 key versions
of the xs may differ in how many buttons they offer the user. It may be
necessary to modify this document to suit those models. Throughout this
document, you will notice phrases like button 1, button 2, etc. Button 1
indicates the button that starts off a vertical or horizontal series of
buttons. For example, in a horizontal row of 3 buttons, button 1 would be the
first button in the row and would be on the left, button 3 would be the last
button in the row and would be on the right.
Structure
The document will be structured in such a way that lets the user quickly locate
the button they desire, without having to go chronologically through the entire
series of buttons to find what they are looking for. Also note that in some
instances, some buttons are toggle controls, meaning that they cycle to
different parameters depending on how many times the user presses the button.
Some of these parameters have been noted. Any user can make modifications to
this document at any time, provided they share the revised edition with all
users of the MoAccess mailing list. If you have any questions or feedback on
this document, please contact Jes Smith at the email address listed at the end
of this document.
Top row.
The top row contains 4 buttons located in a vertical list. The first button is
the select part control. The button has three parameters: Tone 1, tone 2, and
aRP FX. When the synthesizer is powered on, this control defaults to tone 1.
Note:
Each parameter of the select part control will change the setting of the 8
knobs. The settings are as follows.
Parameter, knob number, knob setting:
Tone 1: Knob 1, cutoff.
Tone 1, knob 2, resonance.
Tone 1, knob 3, attack.
Tone 1, knob 4, decay.
Tone 1, knob 5, sustain.
Tone 1, knob 6, release.
Tone 1, knob 7, assign 1.
Tone 1, knob 8, assign 2.
Tone 2
Tone 2, knob 1, eQ Low.
Tone 2, knob 2, eQ Mid F.
Tone 2, knob 3, eQ mid.
Tone 2, knob 4, eQ, midQ.
Tone 2, knob 5, eQ high.
Tone 2, knob 6, pan.
Tone 2, knob 7, reverb.
Tone 2, knob 8, chorus.
ARP fx
ARP fx, knob 1, swing.
ARP fx, knob 2, quantize value.
ARP fx, knob 3, quantize strength.
ARP fx, knob 4, gate time.
ARP fx, knob 5, velocity.
ARP fx, knob 6, octave range.
ARP fx, knob 7, unit multiply.
ARP fx, knob 8, tempo.
The second button in the top row below the select part control is labeled
multipart control. This button appears to do nothing when repeatedly pressed,
however there are three lights just to the right of the multipart control
button. The first light is labeled reverb, the second light is labeled chorus,
and the third light is labeled pan.
The third button on the top row is the assignable function 1.
The fourth button is the assignable function 2.
To the right of the eight knobs there are several more rows of buttons. Again,
some are toggles.
Top row.
There are only two buttons on the top row.
Button 1, remote mode on/off.
Button 2, arpeggio on/off.
Effect Bypass mode
Below the remote and arpeggio toggle controls is a row of three buttons, which
are in the effect bypass mode.
Button 1, insertion.
Button 2, system.
Button 3, master effect.
The next two buttons are the octave controls.
Button 1, octave down.
Button 2, octave up.

Under the octave controls are two rows of three buttons, and are designated
with "sequence transport" as the label. Row 1.
Button 1, beginning of sequence.
Button 2, rewind.
Button 3, fast forward.

To the right of the dial are the following buttons.
Note:
This list is taken from the order in which the buttons appear on the
synthesizer in orientation to the data dial. (Bryan and list, I will need
feedback on how best to represent the following layout to new users, but this
is how I would orient myself): Far left of dial, Button 1, dec/no. Far right
of the dial, button 2, dec/yes. Below the dial are the four arrow keys, layed
out just like on a pc keyboard. Below all four arrows, button 1, exit, button
2, enter.
