Can somebody tell me how many MB it takes to store all data from Motif XS to USB ?  I have done a download to USB selecting “All”, but I only have 1.8 MB.  Is this normal ?

This can be a normal X0A ALL file if you don’t have any user waveforms (samples).

All you need is a 2 gig space USB thumb drive. In fact, I don’t think the XS will recognize a thumb drive much bigger than that anyway. Also, do yourself a favor and back it up on a computer in case something happens to it. (Usually 3 back up devices are most recomended.)

I’m running a 16 Gb Toshiba USB stick and it is fast.

The XS accepts USB media FAT32 formatted.
So theoretically the limit is 64Tb ........................

An ALL file with no user samples or populated songs/patterns in it is less than 1.8Mb. If you have some sequencer data saved in there, then 1.8Mb sounds about right to me.
