Hi omar and everyone- Omar, are you still selling that motif es 6? If so, can you e-mail me off list please? I am looking to buy one. I actually am cementing my studio set up now and whatever i purchase for now will be lasting me for the next few years at least. I picked up the fantom xr mainly for it's expandibility with the roland srx expansion cards, since it can hold 6 of them. I luckily found it really cheap on ebay and it is in excellent condition. In order to purchase the motif es6, i am selling my motif rack es and a fatar studio logic sl880 fully weighted midi controller keyboard. Both are in great condition and i am selling the keyboard along with a very good heavy duty stand and a sustaine pedal. I was going to put them up on ebay but if anyone is interested, i will sell the rack es for $1000 and the keyboard will sell in the $300 range. Yes the fantom manual is pretty inaccessible as with most of the pdf manuals i've looked at but at least for me, it lets me know sort of basic info on what controls the module has. I however am definitely very enthusiastic about the yamaha motif es6, since from what i've heard on the motif help mailing list, it is very accessible if you are willing to memorize buttons and menus and i am definitely willing to spend hours at it if it means i can use the keyboard mostly by myself.
