Important Notices about the CD-ROM

Data Types

This CD-ROM includes two types of data: application software and sampled audio data. Please refer to pages 4 (Windows) and 9 (Macintosh) for software installation instructions, and page 14 for the audio contents. These applications allow you to edit MOTIF data and transfer data between your computer and the MOTIF. You can import the audio data from an audio CD player (or any CD playing/ripping function on your computer) to the MOTIF via its INPUT jacks. For detailed information, refer to the MOTIF Owner’s manual. The application software is contained on track 1 (as recognized on an audio CD player), and the sampled audio data is contained in the subsequent tracks.
Never attempt to play back track 1 (containing the application software) on an audio CD player. Doing so may result in damage to your hearing as well as to your CD player/audio speakers.

Operating System (OS)

The applications in this CD-ROM are provided in versions for both Windows and Macintosh operating systems. The installation procedure and the applications themselves differ depending on the operating system that you are using. Please refer to the appropriate installation instructions.

About Open Plug-in Technology

You can start the Voice Editor for MOTIF or the File Utility software as either a stand-alone software or a plug-in application in the Open Plug-in Technology compatible application. Open Plug-in Technology (OPT) is a newly developed software format that allows control over MIDI devices from a music software sequencer. For example, this allows you to start up and operate various parts of your music system, such as plug-in board editors, and mixing control editors – directly from an OPT-compatible sequencer, without having to use each separately. This also makes it unnecessary to set MIDI drivers for each application, streamlining your music production system and making all operations more convenient and seamless.
About the OPT Le
The client application and its compatibility with OPT can be divided into three levels, as shown below.
vels
Level 1 – OPT Panels provides basic support for opening and displaying OPT control panels that can transmit data via the clients’ external MIDI ports.
Typically this will allow basic hardware editor control panels to operate properly.
Level 2
OPT Processors provides support for real-time MIDI processors and panel automation. Typically this will allow both real-time and offline MIDI
effects (e.g. Arpeggiators, transposers etc.) to operate properly and supply automation to OPT panels.
Level 3 – OPT Views provides support for edit views and MIDI processors/panels that require direct access to client sequencer storage structures. Typically
this will allow sophisticated MIDI edit views to be supported (e.g. List editors, Auto Accompaniment, Data Checkers etc.).

Troubleshooting

The driver cannot be installed.
• Is the USB cable connected correctly?
Check the USB cable connection. Disconnect the USB cable, then connect it again.
• [Windows] Is the USB function enabled on your computer?
When you connect the MOTIF to the computer for the first time, if the
“Add New Hardware Wizard” does not appear, the USB function on the computer may be disabled. Perform the following steps.
1 Double-click “System” in the Control Panel to open the System
Properties window.
2 Double-click the “Device Manager” tab and make sure that no “!” or
“x” marks appear at “Universal serial bus controller” or “USB Root Hub.” If you see an “!” or “x” mark, the USB controller is disabled. For more information, refer to the owner’s manual of your computer.
• [Windows] Is any unknown device registered?
If driver installation fails, the MOTIF will be marked as an “Unknown
device,” and you will not be able to install the driver. Delete the “Unknown device” by following the steps below.
1 Double-click “System” in the Control Panel to open the System
Properties window.
2 Double-click the “Device Manager” tab. With the “View devices by
type” check box checked, look for “Other devices.”
3 If you find “Other devices,” double-click it to extend the tree to look
for “Unknown device.” If one appears, select it and click the [Remove] button.
4 Remove the USB cable from the MOTIF, and make the connection
again.
5 Install the driver again.
When controlling the MOTIF from your computer via USB, the MOTIF does not operate correctly or no sound is heard.
• Did you install the driver?
• Is the USB cable connected correctly?
•Are the volume settings of the tone generator, playback device, and application program set to the appropriate levels?
•Have you selected an appropriate port in the sequence software?
• Check whether the MIDI IN/OUT setting in the Utility mode corresponds to the actually used cable (USB or MIDI).
Cannot suspend or resume the computer correctly.
• Do not suspend the computer while the MIDI application is running.
• If you are using Windows 2000, you may not be able to suspend/resume normally, depending on the particular environment (USB Host Controller, etc.). Even so, simply disconnecting and connecting the USB cable will allow you to use the MOTIF functions again.
How can I delete or re-install the driver?
[Windows Me/98]
1 When the MOTIF is recognized correctly, double-click “System” in
the Control Panel to open the System window.
2 Double-click the “Device Manager” tab, select “YAMAHA USB
MIDI Driver” and delete it.
3 Use the MS-DOS prompt or Explorer to delete the following three
files.
n To delete these files using Explorer, select “Folder Options” from the
Tool (View) menu, and select “Show all files (and folders).”
• \WINDOWS\INF\OTHER\YAMAHAMOTIF6.INF
