Yamaha Motif XS7 HIGH QUALITY SOUNDS
TO SPARK YOUR CREATIVITY The MOTIF XS provides an exceptionally
broad selection of realistic sounds to spark your creativity, with
a massive 355 MB of high-quality waveforms and samples on
board. A single Voice can have up to eight separate
sound Elements, enabling composite sounds of remarkable complexity and nuance.
Among the standout Voices is a resonant, meticulously recorded concert
grand piano sound that is practically worth the price of
admission by itself. New acoustic piano, electric piano and orchestral
samples - not to mention the richly textured and distinctly
electronic synthesizer waves - give you the sonic tools to
fully realize virtually any style of music and any instrumentation.
Another new feature is the Expanded Articulation (XA) tone generation
system. Using the eight available Elements, XA allows you to
more effectively recreate realistic sound and natural performance techniques -
such as legato, staccato and key release sounds - often
used on acoustic instruments but unavailable or difficult to realize
on electronic keyboards. It also lets you assign Elements to
on/off panel switches, and change sounds within a Voice in
real time - for example, playing a classical guitar voice
and switch between playing normally and playing high harmonics. XA
also offers other unique modes for random and alternate sound
changes as you play. A wide selection of special Mega
Voices provide even more expressive nuance, when used with sequencer
tracks or the special Mega Voice Arpeggios. Mega Voices are
not meant to be played from the keyboard because of
their complex velocity layers, but have special expressive sounds that
are designed to be precisely triggered by recorded data -
for example, letting you create an acoustic guitar track with
authentic sounding muted playing, slides and bell-like harmonics. Other Voice-related
features include a uniquely natural "half damper" effect for acoustic
piano sounds. This gives you nuanced control over the sustained
sound when pressing the damper pedal, depending on how far
down you press the pedal. The MOTIF XS has a
full complement of effects, both insert (Insertion) and send (System),
and includes a special set of VCM (Virtual Circuitry Modeling)
effects that authentically model the elements in analog circuitry, realistically
recreating the uniquely warm characteristics of vintage processing gear. Speaking
of "vintage," the instrument also includes a sophisticated Vocoder effect
that produces classic robotic synthesizer sounds, molded by your speaking
or singing voice through a connected microphone. IDEAL FOR LIVE
PERFORMANCE, SONG CREATING AND ARRANGING The MOTIF XS has so
many sophisticated features that help jump-start your creativity and live
performance potential. One of the most powerful of these is
Arpeggio, which lets you trigger a variety of sequenced phrases
from the keyboard. There are approximately 6,000 different Arpeggio phrases
on board, and you ca
