Hi!
I'm testing Sonar! And I have to say, it's working really good with Jaws so
far.
Is there a reference of often used key commands? I couldn't find until yet. It would be nice to be able to navigate through the MIDI Channels, set markers, move through the notes with keys, etc.


So, all of you said, I can use every sounds of the Motif XS when recording MIDI. But how can I par example record different types of flutes, or the first sound in the electric Piano Sounds (Button 2 in the categories), or this synth sounds who are somethimes more "Noise" than musical tones? (sorry I don't find the right word ...)

And there is also a problem: The Channal for Drums doesn't Sound right in some Midis. How can I get the right Dum Set? I was successful to find the list of MIDI Patches with 128 instruments. But I didn't find such thing like Drum Set ...

Thanks for your help and kind regards
Benjamin

O wow, I had mentioned the mo access site on the first post and since he
said he didn't find them I figured google, that actually showed up nothing
but es ins files, so I figured they weren't available yet, I didn't look
at
the MoAccess myself since I don't own an sx, I was just giving him
pointers
lol...

D!J!X!

Hey, come on. How can you not know where the instrument definitions are
located? They're in the Resources section on MoAccess.info, and I only
talk
about them two or three times a week <smile>.

Unfortunately jaws and cubase don't work too good, sonar is the only most
accessible package you'll find...  I did try googling the sx ins file and
couldn't find anything, so the other alternative is to use the data list
for
the sx and look at bank numbers and voice numbers and stuff and send them
to
sonar that way, by inserting a patch change even or something...I'm
surprised, I'd imagine someone would have made one by now...

HTH, D!J!X!

Hi!
No, I don't have the instrument definitions for the XS. I think, it isn't
available yet. Par example on motifator.com you can find these lists for
any
Motifs, but not for the XS.

I guess, I have to wait. Anyway, I also want to record audio tracks. I
haven't sonar. But with my motif XS I got Cubase AI. Is this program also
good for Jaws?

Benjamin

Hello, do you have the sx's instrument definitions for sonar?  If so,
import it using the options>instruments>port
number/channel>define>import.
Then
you can use  the track properties to navigate to the specific bank,
and select the specific instrument.  They should be labeled; at least
on the es file they are labeled, as pre1-6, user1-3, plg1-3, pre
drums, user drums, etc etc. If you haven't gotten the sx ins file,
search for it on google (I'm not sure if it's even available yet; I
would imagine so) or if you have it and haven't imported, let me know
if you need help with it.

HTH, D!J!X!

You're so greath! That was the problem! Thank you very much!

Do you know, which Program or bank Number are in MIDI used to create
Drums?
Par example, I want to add Drums to a song.
I know that mostly Drums are on kanal 10. But which program?

Are you in song or pattern mode in the motif sx?  You have to be in
multitimberal  mode, which are song or pattern, in order to hear more

than

1
instrument/voice out of the motif...

Hi Everyone!

Finally I got my Motif XS 8! I waited since July ...

My Problem: I installed the USB Driver for MIDI Connection. But the
MIDI-In doesn't work probperly. I can always only hear one
instrument.
My biggest wish: I would like to open MIDI-Files with the Quick
Windows Sequencer  QWS, modify them and create own songs.

I already activated the USB to Host in the Motif XS. Is there
something else I should do?

Kind regards
Benjamin
