2 Voice/Multi mode
Determines the mode of the MOTIF-RACK XS, Voice or Multi. As soon as “Voice” or “Multi” is selected
here, the mode of the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument changes accordingly and the Auto Sync window
(page 52) opens. After setting parameters as necessary on this window, click [Start] to execute data
synchronization between the MOTIF-RACK XS Editor and the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument.
3 ONLINE/OFFLINE
Clicking this switches the status of the Editor between “ONLINE” and “OFFLINE.” When “ONLINE” is
indicated, the edited status is completely synchronized between the MOTIF-RACK XS Editor and the
MOTIF-RACK XS instrument, meaning that any parameter edit you make on the MOTIF-RACK XS Editor
is reflected in the same parameter on the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument and vice versa. When OFFLINE is
selected, editing on the MOTIF-RACK XS Editor will not affect the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument and vice
versa even if the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument is connected to a computer.
Note that the indication here is automatically changed according to the status of communication
between the MOTIF-RACK XS Editor and the MOTIF-RACK XS instrument. For example, the ONLINE
status changes automatically to OFFLINE when the cable is disconnected accidentally.

window, clicking here changes the Editor status from OFFLINE to ONLINE without opening the Auto Sync
window.
