Creating User Arpeggios

Actually, there is no direct operation for recording Arpeggios. First, you have to record a Phrase to a Song track. Then, use the appropriate Song Job function to convert the data to Arpeggio data.

The MOTIF is loaded with such a wealth of different features, functions and operations, you may find it difficult to locate and call up the particular feature you need.This is where the Master function comes in handy. You can use it to memorize the operations you use most often in each mode, and call them up instantly anytime you need them with a single button press. The MOTIF has space for a total of 128 of your own User Master settings.

•Zone(*) is available only when you specify “Voice” or “Performance” in the Memory display in the Master Play mode and store the settings to a User Master. Details are described later.

•Parameters other than those shown above (e.g., Knob/Slider settings) can be stored. See page 273 for details.

Keep in mind that the settings you can store to a User Master in the Voice/Performance mode differ from those you can store in the Song/Pattern mode. Here are the main differences:

●Storing settings in the Song/Pattern mode

In general, you can store specific Song numbers in the Song mode, Pattern numbers in the Pattern mode.

nOperations and settings in File mode, Utility mode and Sampling mode cannot be stored to a User Master.

●Storing settings in the Voice/Performance mode

In addition to specific Voice or Performance numbers, you can also store master keyboard functions — such as the Zone settings, in which the MOTIF keyboard is divided into up to four different Zones.
