The Voice mode (page 27) lets you play a wide range of dynamic and authentic instrument sounds (Voices). Only one Voice can be
played simultaneously. Use this mode when you want to play just a single Part. The Voices of the MOTIF-RACK XS are divided into the
following two types:
• Normal Voices (pitched musical instrument-type sounds)
• Drum Voices (percussion/drum sounds)
Multi Mode
The Multi Mode (page 35) lets you set up the MOTIF-RACK XS as a multi-timbral tone generator for use with computer-based DAW
software or external sequencers. You can play various Voices (up to 16 Parts) simultaneously. By assigning different Voices to each
track in a song file of your sequencer, you can play back a complex band or ensemble performance with just a single MOTIF-RACK XS.
