Quick Guide
Assigning desired Voices to each
Part
Performances can be made up of a maximum of four Parts
(Voices), selected from the internal tone generator Parts 1 - 4 and
Plug-in Board Parts 1 - 2. You can create a Performance by
layering several Voices together, and by assigning different Voices
to separate ranges of the keyboard.
1. Press the [SHIFT] + [PERFORM] buttons to enter the
Performance mode, then select a Performance to be
edited (page 30).
If you are creating a Performance from scratch, use the convenient
Initialize function (in the [UTILITY] JobSel display) to initialize a
Performance in the User Banks (page 47).
2. Press the [EDIT] button once or twice to call up the
Performance Voice Assign mode.
The following display appears.
Selecting Performances from a computer
As in the Voice mode, you can select Performances on this
instrument from your computer software by specifying the
following MIDI messages (page 24). The Bank Select MSB/LSB
values for changing the Performance are following:
Bank Select MSB (Control #000) = 63
Bank Select LSB (Control #032) = 64
n When switching the mode (e.g., changing the Voice mode to the
Performance mode), transmit the proper Mode Change message (System
Exclusive) before the Bank Select MSB to the MOTIF-RACK ES (page 95).
n After the Bank Select MSB/LSB, transmit the proper Program Change
message to select the Performance Program Number.

Each Performance can contain a maximum of four Parts, each of

Elements of a Voice (page 26).
