Hi Motifators, I have recently bought the Firewire board for my Motif XF. While setting everything up with my iMac (running OS 10.6.8), the Yamaha Steinberg FW driver does not show the XF6 as it is supposed to do. Everything is greyed out and I can only “reset device number”. In cubase I see something flashing in the bottom right corner when I play on the Motif, but nothing happens besides that.... Also in the audio/midi setup on the iMac there is no Motif to be selected. What can I do? I’m lost! Thank, Edgar |

Welcome to the forum.
You didn’t mention…
See http://www.motifator.com/index.php/support/view/motif_xf_ysfw_setup_mac_with_cubase
Just to be sure, this is the current driver for the OS version you’re running:
I hope that helps. |

Hi Mr Din, Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I have done that already. It seems to not recognise the device being connected. I have also tried the newer driver (1.7.4) but no luck either. Unistalled now and back to 1.7.3 in combination with the V1.1.1 for Mac. Any other thoughts?
Thanks again,
|

What cabling are you using between the XF and iMac? Does Yamaha Steinberg FW show up in System Preferences? If so, what happens when you click on it? |

Hi, Thanks for your help. I’m using a 9 (male) to 6(male) firewire cable. The Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver has 2 tabs: General and About (but no Motif...). The sample rate, Word clock and Clock Source are all grey. I can only select: reset device number; this doen’t seem to do anything for me.... |
