I played one briefly in a store... it has the usual collection of great-sounding presets. The Yamaha folks just seem to do a great job with the sounds.
Yea but like is there a way that i can sample sounds from the DX7 to the motif because you can do that with the ES series like i think you can sample sounds from a roland d-50 on to a motif es, as well as to a korg triton series.
i have a motif 7 and i wanted to know if there is anyway how i can get the yamaha DX7 sounds on it like the lead brass or if there is a way i can fix a sound to let it sound like it?
@FreestyleLilWayne Well, I have quite a few videos here with the sounds of the original Motif. Many of them have been carried over even into the current Motif models. Personally, I prefer the Motifs over the workstations made by Korg and Roland, although there are others who would disagree. It is a matter of personal preference.
Just a few measures from Van Halen's song "Jump." One of the very rare moments in one of my videos where I actually play a bit of someone else's tune. :)
Yamaha Tyros has the best but you won't like the price tag attached.... best bet is to get a sampling plug in like esx24 and buy sample libraries.... Mojo horns has good sounds and I just found one I like by Zero-g called Phantom Horns..... BTW i have a tyros4 and 5.... they are nice machines for the money....but 1) the sound libraries are very limited for expansion and 2) unless you convert and sample yourself.... the libraries are only limited to tyros use unlike the motif sounds. Hope this helps

Wow- the flute sound is great- those overblown tones from hitting the keys harder is a great touch

you are very skilled at playing, but why using distortion with the wheel on sounds like the sax??
haha thanks, ive been trying to find that song for a long time. great job on the vids, keep doin it!

Have you ever thought about getting a modular synthesizer?
Just wondered if you have looked at the Motif XS and what your impression is?
(I know, so many keyboards, so little time!)

the first sound is very very beautiful, what is the name of the preset?

What about some funk brass on the motif James Brown and Tower of Power style?

I have not used the sampling aspects of the Motif, but you should check out a website called Motifator. All things Motif-related are there.
what kind of motif is this?
IS THAT A SONG AT 1:40??
@FreestyleLilWayne Well, sorry, but I don't know how many sounds the ES version added. Maybe that info is at the Yamaha site.

I'll put it on "the list."
Yes, the Motif has sampling capability.
@FreestyleLilWayne That's the original Motif.

yeah, I bought one for $500. I have 2 motif racks, 1 motif 7 and 1 motif es7
Yes indeed.
@yarkeim Yep. The version that Vybe did though. and He had the XS.

2015 and brass still sound like shit on any synth.
