Hi Stone,
Much like finding your first Easter eggs...you know, in a DVDisc?
Now onto the next wonderful surprises our respected friends from Yamaha have for us to look forward to… Any intelligent speculations? Chas |

Hi guys. So it has to be a USB adaptor that lights up when you plug it into the motif xf ya? I bought a wireless USB adaptor but it doesn’t light up when I put it into the motif xf. I guess that’s why I cant make a connection ya? Does the buffalo USB have software that you have to install? Cause I think that’s where the problem lies. I’ve done all the steps in the supplementary manual but I can’t seem to get connection. |

Hi ,
After you describe all the steps you’ve done, I’ll happily help you configure what you missed.
But here is basicaly it:
On Motif XF in Voice Mode Press UTILITY, then Press in this order: F1 then SF3 then INC/YES
Exit that screen now press F5 and then SF2 and down arrow to Interface set Midi In/Out to network. Now to thee app settings…
Set the Motif for the particular app, Voice for Voice Editor, or Song or Pattern Mode for the Performance Editor and so on. On the iPad, you Might want to reboot the iPad before you change to Motif Wi-Fi too.
In the iPad app click the little cog wheel in the top right corner to configure the app.
good luck Chas |

Hi Bad_Mister! Do I realy need to use the ad-hoc mode to connect iPad with Motif XF using those iPad apps? I just didn’t find any instructions on that in Motif XF Supplementary Manual. In the section 3 ‘Make the connection setup’ I read that connection may be done with ‘Infrasrtucture’ or ‘ad-hoc’ modes.

Yet another attempt to implement wireless MIDI connection. 1. I have the following USB WiFi adaptor:
Wifi Adapter Flenco 600Mbps WiFi Dongle Mini Dual Band 2.4G/5G USB Wireless Network Adapter Support for Win 7/8/8.1/10/XP/Vista
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B078MHKFJ9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2. Motif XF8 with OS ver 1.5 3. IPad model MD518C/A with IOS 10.3.3 I get the same results as others in this thread, having followed all the same suggestions they tried. In essence, the Wifi adaptor blinks its light in a PC but shows no signs of life when inserted into the Motif. I need an up to date list (March 2019) of compatible WiFi adapters. Jacob |
