MOTIF XF Owner’s Manual

The MOTIF XF has a powerful Sampling function that lets you record audio signals—such as vocals from a microphone or
electric guitar—and integrate the resulting Samples with the Voices and Performances of the instrument.
The Sampling mode lets you record sounds—such as vocals from a connected microphone, the signal from an electric guitar, or
audio from an external CD or MP3 player—directly to the instrument, and store them as Samples.
1. Using as a User Voice in the Voice/Performance mode
2. Using as a Phrase or rhythm pattern of an audio track in the Song/Pattern mode
NOTICE
The recorded (edited) sample data is lost when the power is turned off. Make sure to prepare a USB storage device before using the Sampling
function.

Using the Sampling feature
Flash Memory Expansion Module (sold separately)
The sample obtained via the Sampling function can be stored as a Waveform by installing the optional Flash Memory Expansion
Module FL512M/FL1024M to the MOTIF XF. The sample on the Flash Memory Expansion Module will be maintained even if the
power is turned off and can immediately be called up as a Waveform. This is convenient when using a User Voice containing a
Waveform to which the Sample created via the Sampling function has been assigned.
