Wide range of dynamic and authentic Voices—in a 1U rack-mounted tone generator
•
Wide range of dynamic and authentic Voices of the original top-of-the-line Yamaha MOTIF XS Synthesizer—to
give you whatever sound you need, for any musical style.
•
Comprehensive effect processing, including Insertion Effects for up to eight Parts, independent three-band Part
Equalizers for each Part, high-quality Reverb Effects and VCM Effects, provides pro-level sound enhancement
for your music creation and performance.
■
Simple, intuitive panel layout
A detailed 160x64 dot graphic display provides comprehensive and easy-to-understand control over virtually all
operations. Use the various buttons and the Encoder Knob to quickly and easily edit any of the parameters.
■
Large selection of versatile, instantly selectable multiple Voice setups—Multi Mode (page 35)
The MOTIF-RACK XS also features 128 different Multis, each specially programmed with its own effect, equalizer
and other settings, and each designed particularly for a specific style of music or application—letting you
quickly and easily call up the settings you need.
■
Powerful Arpeggio feature with four different types (page 40)
Arpeggio automatically plays a variety of sequenced phrases in response to the keys you play. This function is
especially powerful with Drum Voices—letting you easily call up various rhythm patterns at the touch of a key,
and providing instant inspiration for your performance. With Normal Voices, Arpeggio changes harmonically
according to the chords you play, helping you as you compose or perform. Up to four Arpeggios can be running
simultaneously, and of course, in perfect sync. Accent feature and Random SFX feature give you even greater
expressive, realtime control over Arpeggio playback.

Five Knobs (page 29)
Comprehensive control with five knobs lets you adjust parameter values in real time, including the Effect settings
applied to the Voice and Multi, allowing you to change the sound dynamically as you perform or record.
