I am new to workstations, and just wanted to know if this was possible with any of the Motif models...? |

Yes, you can sample other keyboards just as you can sample any other audio source. It’s never the same as actually using the other keyboard but if you have certain favorite sounds you just can’t do without, it can be done. |

Here’s how I sample other keyboards. I run my Yamaha SY85 through a mixer to boost the signal. (Some keyboard output signals may not be strong enough to get an adequate recording level in your instrument’s sampler. Maybe yours does if it has a preamp.) I take the main outputs of my mixer into the A/D inputs of my Motif 6. Make sure you turn off your mixer’s volume sliders for the instrument you’re recording into, or you will get heck of feedback!!

Good torsogong. That much I figured out by reading the manual but I get lost after that. I am trying to use the Keybank to sample like 7 notes across the keyboard. I don’t know if I acomplished it because the screen doesn’t give you much details. I store the wave and change name on a chosen location but no sound can be heared of what I did. I seriously need help. |
