5 Device No.
Set the Device number to the same as the value specified in the MIDI display of the Utility mode on the
MOTIF XF itself. When the Device number on the MOTIF XF is set to “All,” set the Device No. here to “1.”
6 Auto Sync Setting
This section lets you set how the data synchronization between the MOTIF XF Editor and the MOTIF XF
instrument is executed when “OFFLINE” is changed to “ONLINE.” Actual data synchronization is
executed from the Auto Sync window (page 52) called up automatically under certain circumstances
such as clicking the [OFFLINE] button, starting the MOTIF XF Editor and opening a new file on the Editor.
Global
Determines whether or not the Global data (see page 4) is synchronized and which data (MOTIF XF
Editor or MOTIF XF itself) is synchronized with the other.
Current
Determines whether or not the Current data (see page 4) is synchronized and which data (MOTIF XF
Editor or MOTIF XF itself) is synchronized with the other.
Voice
Determines whether or not the Voice data (see page 4) is synchronized and which data (MOTIF XF
Editor or MOTIF XF itself) is synchronized with the other.
Auto Start
When this is set to “On” and one of the following operations is executed, data synchronization will be
started automatically as soon as the Auto Sync window is opened.
• When clicking “OFFLINE” after setting the MIDI IN/OUT parameter correctly in the Utility mode on the MOTIF
XF, setting the MIDI Ports correctly on the computer, and making a proper connection.
• When the connection between the MOTIF XF and a computer are corrected after appropriately correcting
the setup of the MOTIF XF and the computer.
• When the settings on the MOTIF XF instrument and the computer are corrected after appropriately
reconnecting the devices.
• When the settings on the MOTIF XF instrument and the computer are corrected after appropriately
launching the MOTIF XF Editor.
n The parameters set here apply also to the parameters having the same names in the Auto Sync window.
NOTICE
When the Auto Start parameter is set to “On,” data synchronization is started automatically under certain
circumstances (page 52) such as clicking the [OFFLINE] button, starting the Editor and opening a new file on the
Editor. Keep in mind that this will cause unexpected data loss on the MOTIF XF Editor or the MOTIF XF itself, since
new data automatically overwrites old data upon data synchronization. Make sure to save your important data before
using the MOTIF XF Editor.
7 Knob Guide
Determines whether or not the Knob Guide (knob editing area) appears when adjusting a knob. Setting
this to On conveniently enlarges the knob editing area (as shown), making it much easier to edit a knob’s
parameter.
