Part of my musical arsenal is a Korg i3 which is a MIDI arranger with dedicated buttons for intro, fills, endings, transpose, etc.

Is there a built-in General MIDI mode to put my MOTIF_XS6 into so that the MIDI output of the i3 will play the instrument sets [within reason] properly?

Any help and suggestions are appreciated.

i don’t have a xs but what you are talking about is basically intro...section a: verse 1...section b: chorus...section c: etc, it’s been the same way for years.

and you have 16 sections to work with, which you can chain together then convert to song....add scene and temp changes..

“Is there a built-in General MIDI mode to put my MOTIF_XS6 into so that the MIDI output of the i3 will play the instrument sets [within reason] properly?”

Press [SONG] or [PATTERN] mode and select a blank location
Press [MIXING]
Press [JOB]
Press [F1] INIT
Check the boxes that that say:
“All parameters”
and
“Initialize selected Parts to GM”
Press [ENTER] to execute.

This will setup the MIXING program so that the GM bank is selected for all 16 PARTS with the GM Drum kit assigned to PART 10.

Phil, thanking you in advance, i shall set that up and jack my i3 and try it out--will let you know how it goes
