Hello everyone . I recently just purchased a Yamaha motif rack es and i started creating my own custom layered sounds in performance mode but i find it hard to edit the volume of certain layers for example : one of my layers is a Grand Piano, EP , Pad . how do i adjust the volume of the pad and EP so they are not too loud over covering the piano or too low that you can’t hear the layers? Please help it would be Greatly appreciated!!

See Part Edit on page 80 of the Rack ES Owner’s Manual, and Output Volume on page 81.

Thanks!!! but can i do that using old school midi or do i need to hook my rack up to my macbook?

Neither MIDI nor a computer is needed, the settings are done via the Rack ES front panel, as explained on the Owner’s manual pages I referenced.

If you don’t have the manual, a PDF version is available here:
