Wolf,
This is what you need to do--
In order for you to do multi timbral / multi tracks / multi channel
sequencing with an external sequencer e.g. Sonar with your Motif both
your
motif and Sonar need to communicate with one another through more than
one
MIDI channel. You will therefore need a MIDI board e.g. edirol um,
sporster,
etc via which your keyboard and Sonar will talk to each other. So get
yourself a MIDI card and a pair of MIDI cables; that's for the hardware
part
of things. You will then need to configure Sonar to work with your MIDI
card. From that point on you will have a standard MIDI set up and things
can
begin to happen for you. If you need to know where to buy MIDI cards and
cables, I would suggest you talk to Dancingdots. If you have further
questions on this you can reach me at my direct e-mail-
"nicaise@xxxxxxx"
and I will give you my phone number. So don't worry you are just a
couple
of steps away.
I hope that helps.

Wolf,
Now that you described your set up I may have a better picture of the
situation. When you say you are connected via USB do you mean that you
actually have absolutely no MIDI interface board (e.g. Edirol UM, PS/E,
etc...) and MIDI cables connecting your Motif to Sonar? The answer to
that
question will determine what I tell you next. The way you are currently
set
up, only channel 1 is transmitting and receiving.
Also if you are in the US you may want to contact me over the phone so
that
we can sort this out for you quickly and get you on your way to
producing
music and all that good stuff.

Hello nicaise D,
thank you for your information. However, I'm afraid, I did not succeed
very
well. Seems like I have not yet found the propper settings for my
Motif.
Can
I describe?:
My Motif is connected via USB.
I set the channels to omni, set local to off, and midi to USB.
With sonar, of course, I use the song or the pattern mode.
After importing the Yamaha_motif.ins-file, I can read all the patch
names
in
the patch browser and also can hear the different instruments.
Now, as long as I choose track one and, in the track properties browse
through the patches I get all the original Motif sounds. But when I do
the
same on other tracks I only get the dry sound of the patch. A distinct
example is the Auto-wawa Guitar. On track one it will sound as
expected,
while on track two i lose the wawa-effect. So, maybe, there stil is
something wrong with my channel settings.
I'd really be happy if you or someone in this list could give me some
help.
Thanks in advance.
Wolfgang

Wolf,
This is a follow up to your problem regarding not getting modulation
to
respond when you are in song mode. Upon further testing modulation
responds
on my machine regardless whether I am in song or pattern mode And the
event
view does show modulation events indeed present. So if you are still
experiencing the problem it may be specific to your machine. In that
case
I
would suggest that you re-initialize your motif to restore it to the
factory
preset and that should pretty much take care of things for you. Be
sure
to
save any thing you may have created on it before re-initialize it.
I hope that helps.

hi, this is a question to all those who with CT use the yamaha motif.
I don't manage to get the modulation controller one work with any
organ
patch I assign to a sonar track. Turning the modulation wheel also
doesn't
have any affect. While I'm using sonar I switch to the song mode. Now
when
I
turn on the voice mode - just to try - the modulation wheel works
properly.
Can anyone give me a hint? Thanks!
