In the Song / Pattern Mixing mode, the only parts
that sound are the currectly selected (edited)
part, and parts having the same receive channel
as the selected one.
MIDI cables by themselves cannot
handle data from multiple ports. If a
MIDI cable is used to transmit data
from an external sequencer, only
the Port 1 parts are used. To take
advantage of the multiple ports of
the MOTIF, use a USB cable.
When the Multi-Part Plug-in board and two Single Part Plug-in
boards have been installed:
Each track of music (MIDI) data sounds a
corresponding part on the MOTIF,
according to the MIDI channel settings.
(The receive channel for each part must
match the transmit channel of each track.)
