I have watched Bert Smorenburg demo the Motif xf on many youtube and yamaha videos. I realize this may be a naive question but I am new to the digital music.....He plays many popular songs that have multiple tracks and he plays along usually with the melody ( Gaga, Mayer, Black eyed peas). How is this accomplished...Is he generating all his own tracks or is he downloading a midi sequence from the web, making adjustments, adding the Motif sounds of his choice on a DAW, and playing along? thanks |

I would guess he is making those tracks on the product he is demonstrating at the time (That is what is done) - but whether he downloads them (doubt it) or he is creating them himself, the thing is YOU can create your own backing tracks and leave the part that you want to play out so you can play along live. This is easy enough to do. The process is explained in the Owner’s Manual starting on page 37: Creating an original Song. |

The operations are fairly easy. Coming up with ‘what to play’ is the only difficult part.
