Last week I asked a question about changing the tempo of a song in the Motif Es. Here's the answer. Inserting a tempo change In Song mode press: 1. Record (buttons to the right of the faders. 1st button on the left, bottom row), then F1 (two rows under the LCD. Bottom row, button all the way to the left). 2. Use the right directional button (just below the data wheel, on the right, middle button) and go to Rec. track (3 presses to the right, press the 'up' directional 3 times). 3. Turn data wheel counterclockwise until tempo's displayed (two full circles). 4. Press edit/F5 c 5. 001:1:000 120.0 will be displayed (the curser defaults to the first 3 numbers, for measure). 6. The first 3 numbers are the measure, the middle number's the beat, and the last 3 numbers are the gate. 7. 120 is the tempo to be adjusted. Use the inc / dec buttons to adjust to the desired measure (both are offset, just below the data wheel. Each button press lowers or raises the measure by 1). 8. Use the directional buttons and go to 120.0 (3 directional buttons presses to the right) and use the inc / dec buttons to adjust to the desired tempo (both are offset, just below the data wheel. Each button press lowers or raises tempo 1 beat per minute). 9. When ready press F6 ONE TIME to set the PC in place (under the LCD again, bottom row, first from the right). No reaction from the Motif is displayed, so if you press F6 more than once more than on PC will be inserted. 10. Press the exit button (3 inches to the right of the F6 button) when finished, and now your tempo change has been inserted. To insert more than one tempo change repeat steps 8 and 9 until finished. It isn't required to enter a change, back out of the tempo change screen, just to go back in to create a new tempo change. If you know which measures you need the changes in, simply set the measure number, tempo change, then F6. -----Original Message----- From: moaccess-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:moaccess-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bobbi Blood Sent: Sunday, April 06, 2014 11:04 PM To: MoAccess@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [MoAccess] Audio tutorials for motif xf. Okay, so then, what you'd need to do is set up what is called a master. This is not one of the modes I am familiar with, however, so I'm afraid I'm not able to give you specific instructions as to how to achieve your particular goal. I can tell you, though, that master mode is precisely what you need to, say, create a performance or a mix and then access it with the touch of a button. If I were live player, I'd probably be more familiar with this mode and have more information to give you. Perhaps you can see if you can find some information on the Motifator forum about Master Mode. I have found in the past that Motifator has a lot of good questions and answers there. I have learned much of what I know from there. http://www.motifator.com/ HTH!
