Hi Tim,

When I purchased the motif (I can't think how many years ago, it was from the first batch of Motif modules to be sent to the UK), there really wasn't anything to match its Library of quality patches.

I've not tried using it with Sonar yet.

I have a hardware Sequencer which I used to use with my Motif, I'd like to be able to record these sequencer tracks on to Sonar in real time as my sequencer has no USB. Is it possible to record a multi tracked sequenced project straight to Sonar using midi in real time?

Well, I can give my own age away as well - I'm still a hardware freak,
despite the fact that some of the software stuff is completely stunning.
Sometimes I just want to put my hands on an instrument and play.  I've
several clients who use Motif models and adore them and Adrian's tutorials
are superb and you must have liked its sound, or you wouldn't have bought
it.  Glad to see that you're resurrecting it.

Best wishes.

Thanks Tim,

I Mistakenly thought the Motif tutorial email was from someone who wasn't
aware that there are people on the email list who can't see at all.

I foolishly resisted moving over to softsynths and the like for years.
everything I used I memorised, Korg T3 Work Station, four Modules, Three
effect units, compressors, Real to Real, Dat players and Creator on the
Atari 1040. I understood all the systems better than the guys who sold them
to me.
I memorised every single screen. I used to show people how to record to
anolog real to real with symti and how you could have the sequencer in time
with your anolog recordings.
This is all giving my Age away.
The reason for me saying this is: Caketalking is incredible! It's great to
be able to keep your mind on the music without wishing you had the IQ of a
NASA Scientist, although, I truly believe some of you guys could work for
NASA.

Hi,I wouldn't stress
Over this - it just goes to show that accessibility is a somewhat nebulous
term and that a method that works for some doesn't work for all.  If it
makes you feel any better, I'm rubbish at working things by remembering
patterns of button presses with no feedback.

Best wishes.

Hi all,

Darren H just informed me that a lot of the musicians on this site use the
Motif? talk about putting my big foot in it?
Well truly against the ropes, I must say, it was the Yamaha RM1X more than
the Motif that used to fry my Brain.
The RM1X is a Dance Station accessible by counting cursor positions,
counting clicks on knobs and all that Jazz.
I use to use it mainly as a sequencer.

The Motif I used was the rack Version, not two many of the buttons were
dual
function so it wasn't too hard to navigate.

Please don't tell me there are RM1X fans on this site?
I'm beginning to feel like Ricky Hatton.

Hi all,

Regarding tutorials for the Motif, it's a real brain drainer!
remembering all the Pages and having to count cursor movements and values.

I'm proud to say, thanks to you guys at DD I'm able to put my Motif
in the loft.

Goodnight Motif.

Steve W
