Hi, The band is discussing fly in gigs, where I have would not be able to bring my Motif XF. What are the challenges and possibilities of using one or more racks for this?
Are the voices compatible?
thanks! Eric |

Incompatible Data-Possibly limited conversion via Melas Editors

Ah, So even on the simplest level… a single voice on the XF would not transfer to a single voice on the Rack XS? thanks for the reply! Eric |

With just XF files, not a single Voice can be loaded to a Rack XS. With third-party software the compatibility might still be limited. The XF has Preset Waveforms and Arps not found in the Rack XS - obviously if an XF Voice used any of them, the XS couldn’t duplicate that Voice.
Even an XS keyboard model can be somewhat of a challenge.
The XF has been around long enough that it would seem a decent backline company should be able to provide one. |

Yes, i tried two Backline tests, one in San Diego, and found 1, and San Fransico they had like 6 and mostly xf8’s. So My odds are good based on the how close the venue would be to a major city. thanks for the reply! Eric |
