MOTIF XS OS Updater V1.12

Download Motif XS OS Updater V1.12

New features

Solved problems;
- Fixed a problem in which the user Waveforms assigned to the Mixing Voices cannot be loaded to the MOTIF XS if you saved the Mixing Voices in the Song mode/Pattern mode as a file type other than “all.”

- Fixed a problem in which the ASSIGN1/2 knob operations in the Song data affect the current Part as well as the Parts specified as the channels for control by MIDI Control Change messages when the Song plays back.

- Fixed a problem in which the wrong Insertion Effect might be selected unexpectedly and could not be corrected by changing the program number of the Performance/Song/Pattern/Master or by changing the mode, depending on both the parameter settings before and those after changing.

Important
- When updating from V1.07 or older to V1.12, all User data (User Voices, User Performances, Songs and so on) will be initialized.
Please make sure that you save all User data to a USB storage device or to a computer connected to the same network before performing this update.
