Quick Start Guide
Playing the Master Demo
The MOTIF has so many powerful features, functions, and modes, it may seem difficult to understand them all and
grasp how they work together. One good place to start learning about the various pieces in the MOTIF puzzle is the
Master mode.
Master programs are special setups that let you work across the mode boundaries of the MOTIF (Voice, Performance,
Song, and Pattern), and let you instantly select a desired configuration for the entire instrument. We’ve programmed
a variety of Master programs to show you how this powerful feature can be used. Try some of these out now. (You’ll
be setting up your own Master programs later in this Guide.)
