Drivers Motif Xs6 Midi
Part 1 This is a basic tute on MOTIF (but similar to other master controller keyboards) set up for MIDI to read into MIDI application (CUBASE/GARAGEBAND/LOGIC) via USB, local control settings. Yamaha Steinberg FW Driver enables audio/MIDI signals to be transferred between a computer and following devices compatible with the YamahaSteinberg FW Driver via IEEE1394 cables.Yamaha MOTIF XS8-Yamaha MOTIF XS6/7（if optional mLAN16E2 board had been installed）-Yamaha MOTIF-RACK XS（if optional mLAN16E2 board had been installed）. The Motif USB interface is a MIDI interface; if you want to record the XS audio into Logic you will have to link the Firewire interface (that should be installed by default into the XS8) and install the right drivers (if nedeed).
When properly installed, the driver names are displayed by MIDI sequencing software (MOTIX XS6 examples). Set the MIDI port according to the desired functions. Select MIDI Port 1 to transfer MIDI data from the sequencing software to the MOTIF XS, and to record MIDI note and controller data from the MOTIF XS to the software.
For Windows Vista/XP select Yamaha MOTIF XS6-1 . For Mac OS X select YAMAHA MOTIF XS6 Port 1 . For example, to play the MOTIF XS from MIDI data recorded on a Cubase 4 MIDI track, click Output Routing in the inspector and select Yamaha MOTIF XS6-1 from the pop-up window. TIP: Select MIDI Port 2 to use the remote control functions. The MIDI port selection will be made automatically. (Refer to Controlling a DAW on Your Computer from the MOTIF XS on page 51 of the MOTIF XS owners manual.) For Windows Vista/XP select Yamaha MOTIF XS6-2 .
For Mac OS X select YAMAHA MOTIF XS6 Port 2 . TIP: The MOTIF XS MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connectors can be used as a MIDI interface. When using the MOTIF XS MIDI OUT connector to an external tone module, or to connect an external MIDI controller to the MOTIF XS MIDI IN, select MIDI Port 3 to record MIDI data to sequencing software. For Windows Vista/XP select Yamaha MOTIF XS6-3 .
For Mac OS X select YAMAHA MOTIF XS6 Port 3 . CAUTION: Re: MIDI Port 2 and 4 MIDI Port 2 (Yamaha MOTIF XS6-2) is used for the transfer of remote control MIDI data, and MIDI Port 4 (Yamaha MOTIF XS6-4) is used for transfer of MOTIF XS Editor control MIDI data. This type of data is unnecessary when recording MIDI data from the MOTIF XS or playing the MOTIF XS from an external MIDI device.
Use the following procedures to prevent MIDI data from these ports from being recorded to the MIDI tracks of MIDI sequencing software. Steinberg Cubase 4 1. Select Device Settings from the Device menu. In MIDI port Setup, uncheck the Include All MIDI Inputs item for Yamaha MOTIF XS6-2 and Yamaha MOTIF XS6-4 . ' Apple Logic Pro 8 1. Select Environment from the Window menu.
Select the Click & Ports layer from the pull-down menu. Delete the connection between the SUM and Input Notes objects of the Physical Input object. Connect YAMAHA MOTIF XS6 Port 1 and YAMAHA MOTIF XS6 Port 3 of the Physical Input object to Input Notes . (Refer to the software owner's manual for details.). To make the same settings in other sequencing applications, refer to the appropriate software owner's manual.
You may know KARMA from the fact that it's been an important feature of many Korg high-end workstations, such as the Kronos, OASYS, M3 and original Karma Workstation. KARMA Developer Stephen Kay has now made it possible for Yamaha owners with a Motif XF, XS, MOXF, MOX, S70/S90 XS or Rack-XS to have an even more advanced version (v 3.3) of the same KARMA technology with the new release of KARMA Motif Software. Running on your PC (Mac/Windows), KARMA Motif provides you with all of the inspirational and interactive KARMA features of Korg's flagship workstations and then some - at a fraction of the cost. The only difference is that the KARMA engine is provided by the computer, not built-in to the keyboard. Yet it feels 'built-in' since KARMA sends parameters and text information directly to the keyboard's Remote Mode display so that you can operate the software without even looking at the computer. KARMA Motif uses the Song/Mixing/Multi Mode of the Motif-based instruments to provide 16 part multi-timbral templates with the kind of fully interactive real-time controlled grooves that only KARMA can produce.
The Motif XF, XS, MOXF, MOX and S70/S90 XS DAW Remote Mode can be used for powerful and inspirational real-time control of your grooves. External controllers such as Steinberg's CMC Series and even Yamaha iPad apps can be easily integrated for further control. Generate unique musical effects in real-time including: full-blown backing tracks, techno arpeggios & effects; dynamic drum/bass/synth grooves; dense rhythmic & melodic textures; natural sounding glissandos; guitar strumming and finger-picking; random effects; auto-accompaniment effects; gliding portamento and pitch bend effects.
Includes 491 Generated Effects (GEs, the individual phrase patterns) and 64 Performances using the instrument's Song/Mixing/Multi mode, where each of the 64 songs is a complete, 16 part multi-track KARMA algorithmic music groove. Each Performance features six KARMA Modules, with a left hand and right hand zone for controlling KARMA and soloing on top of it, and eight fully voiced and completely different scenes. The instrument's arps are also integrated in each Performance as additional elements that can be triggered via the Intelligent Chord Trigger Transposition features. And since you are already in Song Mode, you're just one step away from recording your KARMA-fied musical performances into the internal sequencer - or you can route the output to any DAW for external sequencing.
Furthermore, a KARMA Performance can call up any Voice, Performance, Song, Pattern, or Master slot when loading, so that KARMA can be used in any of the instrument's modes. Actual User Comments Version 3.2: 'Your product is still my best ever investment for its value.' - Arpad 'You have the best customer service I ever experienced.
Thanks a lot for this outstanding product, it already brought me so much joy!' - Michael Version 3.1: 'KARMA Motif in its initial avatar was always an excellent piece of software and a great companion for the Motif series of synthesizers, but in the new 3.1 release you've really made it shine even more! With the added support for MOXF, MOX, Rack-XS (in addition to Motif XS/XF) and, very importantly, for OS X 10.7 and beyond, KMo has taken a giant leap forward. A must-have software for any Motif-lover with a desire to fly beyond the sky!'
- vsharma.india Version 3.0: 'A brilliant product. Very easy to use on Motif. Most OUTSTANDING documentation, equally brilliant! Web site absolutely FIRST CLASS. Quality throughout.' - Tom 'I've been through almost everthing and every Performance, everything working fine on my copy.
It is hard to stop playing, I've been at it since yesterday evening late.' - 16bars 'haven't got off Industrial Strength (first performance) yet - 12 hours - changing the GE data and voices on Song. Got Smoke On The Water at the moment:-) Historic Software - thank you!' - Mic 'Extraordinary effort.! This is no ordinary software - I now completely understand why it took so long. There are just too many things going on here - mind boggling to say the least.'
- vsharma.india 'I'm LOVING KARMA (KMo). I'm a crappy keyboard player - actually I am really just a guitar player with a bunch of synths.
My Motif XS7 is/was basically a big space sucking sound module! I'm not up on Song mode, Master mode, etc. But within 15 minutes with KMo - my interest was complete re-kindled in taking some real time to learn that beast and KARMA (I will probably will never use the XS7 without KARMA)! Great piece of SW!' - Larry 'It's in - it's on - it rocks! Stephen, it's a brilliant addition to the MOTIF - great job well done! Judging from the 'buzz' in the forums there's a lot of happy KMo users out there!

Speaking of the Forums, I must compliment you on the format and clarity of the KARMA forums/info/docs etc. Additionally, my thanks to all the knowledgeable forum members who, via their postings, also contribute to assisting my vertical learning curve! - (as I have absolutely no idea how all the technology works - just know that it is great and makes music!)' - F#dim 'Pure bliss - karma 3.0 is jaw dropping, I just want to thank you so much for making such am amazing tool!! Everytime I sit down and play with karma motif 3.0 I become more enamored with it. Time seems to fly by me haha. The performances are stunning!!
I'm an owner of km3 (KARMA M3) too - which is awesome and has been my musical companion for a few years along with my other boards. I've gotta say karma motif is vastly superior! I can't describe how fluid and seamless karma feels with the motif. It's really a match made in heaven - a perfect marriage for hardware and software. I always knew karma + motif would be magical. Thank you so much Stephen!!'
- Flyby '.just got my KARMA MOTIF software today, yes it sure is a masterpiece! Every part of this software you can see the pain-staking attention applied to the programming! I have a KORG M3, a KRONOS. That I just love.
One big part of them is KARMA!! But now my MOTIFS XS/XF, well they are like New Keyboards again. I got the software installed, And all I said was WOW!UNREAL!! So so very deep. I could go on and on about this KARMA MOTIF SOFTWARE.
As a professional Composer/Artist for over 40 years, I can see many new inspired compositions.' - TotallyKenny.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) What is KARMA? KARMA® (Kay Algorithmic Realtime Music Architecture) is a patented algorithmic MIDI data generating technology that takes input notes and controller movements and generates complex musical phrases and effects - from single melodic phrases you can integrate into your productions, to complete backing tracks suitable for song creation. KARMA provides independent real-time control over various aspects of a musical phrase, such as rhythm, duration, accents, chord density, pitch bending, tonal variation, panning, repeats, wave-forms, randomization, etc.
Some people refer to it as 'an arpeggiator on steroids,' although even that description doesn't do it justice. It's simply the most advanced music generation technology available! Why is KARMA different from an arranger keyboard, or an algorithmic composer? KARMA is a parameter-based approach to generating musical effects and phrases, rather than a musical data-based approach. It is not a system that plays back prerecorded MIDI phrases through Note Transposition Tables, like most arranger systems (or phrase generation systems).
It is also not a system where you set up parameters, press a button, and sit back and listen to the 'music' it generates - it is not the type of system that is supposed to 'evolve' a piece all by itself, according to parameter settings. That's because one of the ideas behind KARMA is that the user is always in control of how the music is generated.
If you want the rhythmic complexity to increase at a certain point, well then, you vary the parameter(s) that can cause that to happen with a real-time control at the point that you want it to happen. Of course, KARMA provides scenes that can change many parameters all at the same time at once, essentially shifting the music being generated to a completely different variation instantly. What is KARMA Motif? It's Karma-Lab's newest third generation KARMA 3 technology, in a standalone PC/Mac software program exlusively designed for a group of Yamaha instruments (Motif XF, XS, MOXF, MOX, S70/S90 XS and Rack-XS). It's an even more-advanced version of the same KARMA Technology that is built into Korg's award-winning Kronos, M3, and Oasys Workstation keyboards.
By utilizing your computer and the software, connected to your Yamaha instruments via Yamaha's USB or FW Driver, you can effectively 'add KARMA to your Yamaha', turning it into a unique, fully interactive real-time controlled groove machine unlike anything else! Does it somehow install 'into' the Yamaha instrument? No, it cannot be installed directly into the device. It runs on your computer, and communicates with your Motif-based instrument via MIDI through Yamaha's USB or FireWire driver (or even a standard MIDI Interface, although this is not recommended).

There are no modifications to the instrument (other than loading our data files containing voices and songs/multis) or the instrument's OS (operating system). However, when using KARMA Motif with your keyboard's Remote Mode controlling the software, a 'Real-Time Information Stream' of parameters and text and values is sent from the software directly to the screen of the keyboard, allowing you to control the software without looking at the computer and making it feel as if the software is actually inside the keyboard. Examples of this powerful feature can be found here:.
Yamaha Motif Xs6 Keyboard
How do I use KARMA Motif? Using KARMA Motif is similar to using the on-board arpeggiators of the Yamaha instrument, except far more advanced and versatile.
KARMA has hundreds of parameters that can be varied in real-time, either from the on screen sliders and switches in the 'Realtime Controls Editor,' or via knobs, sliders and switches from an external control device, such as the Steinberg CMC-QC or CMC-PD, the Novation Remote 25, the Korg Nano series, etc. You can jam with it, use it for inspiration to spark new song ideas, use it generate individual bass lines, synth parts, drum grooves etc. For your own tracks - it's almost like a loop collection that never gets stale, since the movement of a single knob or slider can give you a whole new loop.
And it's easy to store your own variations and patterns in additional banks within the software - you can even import simple MIDI phrases and have them instantly turned into KARMA Generated Effects (GEs) that go far beyond the capabilities of the original phrases. How many Performances and Generated Effects does it come with (and are there more)? KARMA Motif comes with 64 KARMA Performances, each of them corresponding to one of 64 Songs in the keyboards's Song Mode (or 64 Multis in the S70/S90 XS or Rack-XS Multi-Mode). Each song/multi is a complete, 16 part multi-track six-module KARMA algorithmic music groove, with a left hand and right hand zone for controlling KARMA and soloing on top of it, and eight fully voiced and completely different scenes. All of the EQ settings, IFX and MFX are professionally programmed, along with edits to the Voices and Drum Kits to create awesome sounding mixes right out of the box. The instrument's onboard arps are also integrated in each Performances as additional elements that can be added via KARMA's Intelligent Chord Trigger Transposition features. KARMA Motif comes with 491 Generated Effects (also referred to as GEs, which are individual phrase patterns).
You can view the Performance list here, and Performance Notes for each of them: Our first 'Expansion Pack' of 32 additional Performances and 133 new GEs has now been released: You can view the Performance list here, and Performance Notes for each of them: (we plan at least another two sets and have another 54 Performances in various stages of completion at the time this was last updated.) You can find out whne they are released on the. Can I record the results of the KARMA generation? Yes, the impressive results generated by KARMA Motif can be recorded either as audio or as MIDI data.
We tried to make it particularly easy to record a KARMA Performance into your Yamaha instrument's internal sequencer. You can record a single Control Track with all of the button pushes, keyboard licks, controller moves, etc., such that playing it back completely recreates the Performance. Then, you can dump the output of that to separate MIDI tracks.
Or, you could record the final results directly to audio tracks in an external DAW or recording device. Secondly, the MIDI data generated by KARMA Motif can be recorded into external software sequencers such as Sonar, DP, Logic, and Cubase (using Virtual Interapplication Ports). You can then route the output of KARMA directly into your software-based sequencing program - the MIDI data can then be played back, edited, overdubbed etc. And become part of your project, while you use KARMA Motif to generate other parts. We have detailed tutorials on 'Sequencing with KARMA Motif' that can be viewed (with other tutorials) on the Can I use KARMA Motif with other synths and soft synths? Yes, but only if you actually have one of the supported Yamaha models connected to the software. The XF, XS, MOXF, MOX, S70/S90 XS or Rack-XS must be located on the global port settings.
Then, you can send the algorithmic effects being generated by KARMA to any device that is part of your MIDI setup. By using KMo's Virtual Ports, you can also control many soft synths and audio generating programs such as Reason, plug-ins inside your favorite DAW, etc. I don't have one of the supported Yamaha instruments - are there different versions that I can use with other keyboards? Please visit the.
There are also versions for the, as well as legacy versions for the and. Is there a demo version I can try out? Not at the moment, but we may produce one in the future.
