Remote mode makes the Motif a control surface. Remote is usually off. It
isn't on unless you've pushed the remote button to turn it on.

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?
