Is it possible to solo each individual SAMPLE on Drum channel? I love the fast way of using the internal Seq! BUT only in the writing part, mixing, not so much… ;)
1. I layer the beat in pattern mode until it feels solid.
I understand that a FW card will allow multi track out (and digital) but how can I prevent the drum track not ending up as a mix of ALL sounds as a mono/stereo track in my DAW? I need Kick/Snare ect separated. I really hope someone has an answer, cause this is important and a dead end for me and my new Motif XF6. /Chris Angelo |

I don’t get it! By saying voice element, I immediately think of the 8 elements that makes up every voice (you can use faders to mute/solo these). If you mean parts or tracks as in the 16 midi tracks of the performance then if you lay your drums over multiple tracks, if you are not using the FW16E card (which can get this trick done for you) then the only way I think to do that with audio cable recording is to record each track one at a time. Again, I don’t know what you meant so my answer could be completely irrelevant to what you are actually asking. |

Most of the terminology you use makes no sense, sorry.
We do understand this part of you post however.
Each drum can be routed to its own discreet output as necessary, for example here is a possible setup
This routing takes place within the Drum Kit you are using
Press [MIXING]
Return to [MIXING]
You certainly don’t have to do them one at a time.... In this regard, no other workstation in its class can do what the Motif XF can do! That’s why it is the best in class! You have 14 assignable FW outputs which can be configured as mono or odd/even stereo pairs as you require. The FW buses are able to carry one or more signals to the DAW. It is called a ‘bus’ because it can carry one or more passengers (signals) along a designated route from point A to point B. |

Thanks! I re-edited my post, of course I meant samples, not voices. Sorry. Bad_Mister. Thanks it sounds good. FW seems useful. Is there a solo function for for each sample in a drumkit while playing a whole song? If not FW is the only way I guess. |

Chris, check out this article and see if it helps you out.
This article (you have to download it), should help out too…

Is there a “DRUM CONSTRUCTION TOOLS” DOCUMENT for an XF? I searched and didn’t find one. I know the XS is close, but not exact. Does anyone know where I can find one for the XF? |

I believe the XS version is the only one offered. |
