That will depend on your audio interface. The Motif XS will allow you to output via the L&R;and the assignable L&R;outputs to your Pro Tools audio interface. |

If you have digi002 you’re all set. Just take each of the 4 outputs from the Motif (L/R and the two assignable) into corresponding audio inputs of your Motif. Experiment with one of the Performances where you can assign each of the 4 voices to one of the Motif outputs. Arm your PT tracks and you should be good to go! |

Well, it is not like four individual outputs (although that is the total). It is actually the Stereo Out, plus to Assignable outputs.
Here is the difference:
The Assignable Outputs (asL&R;) can be used as a stereo pair or you can assign PARTS to just the asL or just the asR. PARTS assigned to the these outputs do not go through the SYSTEM EFFECTS, nor do they go through the MASTER EFFECT or the MASTER EQ. |

Assigning PARTS to OUTPUTS is done as follows:
You would be using SONG mode or PATTERN mode
The normal setting is L&R;.

Julio - Go to http://duc.digidesign.com Search for Yamaha Motif XS or Motif XS. It looks like there are a lot of protools users that export midi from the Motif and import the midi to protools to trigger the motif. They have the protools interface connected with midi cables to the motif. They also use the direct outs as Bad Mister described connected to the DI inputs on the protools interface. This is not as elegant as the AI integration between Yamaha and Cubase (very, very powerful), but I understand the need to track to protools. 1959 |
