Greetings from Uruguay , I recently bought a Motif xs 6. My situation is this: successfully I can use the keys of the motif to play vst instruments in my daw (Studio one 4) but I have had problems using the internal sounds of the motif in the daw (I don’t want to use them by recording as an audio track )
Need some orientation to make it work
At the second tell me how config the midi driver to use the internal sound of the motif in my daw

Hi to Uruguay from Germany! The problem you are currently facing might just be the Base-Channel of the XS not being set to the channel your DAW is transmitting on, but thats a wild guess. (I’m a cubase user, so i cannot help with the DAW)
first, using the audio of the XS in your DAW will be pretty tricky.
think twice, if that’s really what you want. If you want to get audio from the XS to the DAW, you will need the firewire-expansion on the XS and a firewire input on you computer. Be warned, though, this pricey and especially the PC cards are beasts! You will learn many things about your computer, but it will take time until you get this working… My suggestion would be, to record midi to the DAW, have the audio output of the XS routed through the DAW, and after you are satisfied with a given MIDI track, record that to audio (while keeping, but muting the MIDI). Then advance o the next track and so on. You could use the aux-outs of the xs, too (need 4 input-channels on you soundcard, then), this way you could use 2 or three MIDI-Tracks at the same time, but that’s pretty advanced stuff.
hth,

Thanks for the help ralf , I’m going to try cubase 4 , meanwhile the best way is record a a midi event and monitoring the audio trough my mixer. Would like use the xs editor on the same way kontakt works but I dont know how use the studio manager run in cubase like a host app for the editor if you like give some orientation with that. |

Hi!
For my workflow thats currently a rare approach: deeply tweaking the synthsounds while recording. usually i tend to seperate the two aspects, so the missing integration does not matter to me.
best,

Welcome to the forum. Let’s address the port assignment issue in the Editor first. Since the picture you attached apparently isn’t a screen capture from your own computer, some useful information isn’t there.
Some questions…
