Okay. How do I get to the local mode setting, and I notice that every time I 
switch to song mode, a guitar voice comes up as the default instrument. Of 
course I am able to sort of select a number of voices through the keypad on the 
right, but there isn't as wide of a choice list as I have when I am in voice 
mode. Darn it all I just wish Sonar would . well . just work with this 
synthesizer straight out of the box! As yall can see I'm a bit frustrated.

    Then what does the remote mode do? What's its purpose? I thought you said 
that you should have it switched off when working in Sonar.

      It doesn't sound like the Motif is in the song mode. Push the song button.

      You don't need to do anything with a remote setting in Utility mode. The 
remote button turns on and off the control surface mode, which has no affect on 
recording MIDI tracks.

      I got the midi ports on the xs to be recognized in sonar, but now 
whenever I try and record or playback something, I get no metronome and nothing 
from the xs. As an example, when I try and change the patches to prepare the 
track for recording, the patches on the xs show up fine in Sonar, but whenever 
I arrow up and down, Sonar doesn't tell the xs to switch patches to match the 
patch selection. I might arrow to a trumpet patch but I still get a grand piano 
when I play the xs while I'm in the patch selection box. I downloaded sonar 
real producer 6, and I'm creating midi-only tracks, no audio. If I recall, the 
manual says something about turning off remote mode on the midi page under the 
utility menu? I haven't done that yet. However, doesn't the remote on/off 
button do the same thing?

        The MIDI ports for the Motif appear in Options|MIDI Devices. You must 
place checkmarks next to all of the Yamaha ports in order for them to show up 
as input and output choices on individual tracks.

        If the ports don't show up in MIDI Devices, then you didn't install the 
Motif USB drivers, or you didn't install the drivers for the MIDI interface 
where the Motif is attached.

        Hi. I downloaded a trial of sonar 6 producer or something like that, 
haven't used sonar in a long while. For some reason, the xs is not showing up 
as a midi controler for inputs and outputs. What should I do?
