Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the
gaps on the panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power
immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then
have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service
personnel.
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument,
since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the
instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons,
switches or connectors.
Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high
or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the
ears, consult a physician.
Saving and backing up your data
DRAM data (see page 186) is lost when you turn off the power to
the instrument. Save the data to a SmartMedia/USB storage
device.
Never attempt to turn off the power while data is being written to
Flash ROM (while an “Executing...” or “Please keep power on”
message is shown). Turning the power off in this state results in
loss of all user data and may cause the system to freeze (due to
corruption of data in the Flash ROM). This means that this
synthesizer may not be able to start up properly, even when
turning the power on next time.
Backing up the SmartMedia/external media
•To protect against data loss through media damage, we
recommend that you save your important data onto two
SmartMedia/external media.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost
or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Owner’s Manual
Main Features
Wide range of
dynamic and authentic voices
. Use
the
Category Search
function to quickly call up the
sounds you want, based on their instrument type.
Performance mode
lets you use four different voices
together — in layers or in a keyboard split.
Integrated Sampling Sequencer
— seamlessly
combines audio and MIDI recording.
Full
Sample recording and editing
features, and up
to 512MB of sample memory (with optional DIMM
modules).
Wide
data compatibility
lets you load AIFF and WAV
files, as well as samples and program/voice data
from other popular samplers, such as the Yamaha A-
series.
Convenient
Resampling
function lets you sample
the sound of the MOTIF itself directly. Play your own
melodies, riffs and rhythms — and use them as
samples.
Unique
Slice feature
automatically chops up your
rhythms and riffs into their individual beats and notes.
This lets you manipulate the component parts of your
sample loops as MIDI data, and gives you the power
to easily change tempo and even the rhythmic feel,
without disturbing the pitch or sound quality.
Extensive
effect processing
, with Reverb (20 types),
Chorus (49 types), eight separate Insertion blocks
each of which has two blocks
(total 116 types),
Master Effect (8 types), and a digital equalizer (3-band
Part EQ and 5-band Master EQ).
Comprehensive
real-time control with four knobs
and four sliders
— letting you adjust filter, levels,
effects, EG, and more, while you play.
Pattern mode
functions let you craft different rhythmic
sections and riffs as individual elements — which you
can easily and intuitively combine in real time to create
full rhythm tracks.
In addition to being able to create User voices in the
Voice mode, you can create special
Mixing voices
for
Songs and Patterns. These voices can be edited and
stored in the Song/Pattern mode, making it
exceptionally easy and convenient to create voices for
use with Songs and Patterns.
The versatile
Arpeggio
feature automatically plays a
variety of sequenced phrases in response to the keys you
play. This function is especially powerful with drum voices
— letting you easily call up various rhythm patterns at the
touch of a key, and providing instant inspiration for song
creation and performance. When used with normal
voices, the Arpeggio phrase changes harmonically and
melodically with the chords you play, giving you intuitive
control over the patterns as you compose or perform.
Arpeggios can be triggered not only according to the keys
you play, but also by how strongly you play them — for
even greater performance power.

Once you’ve collected all the audio samples, loops,
MIDI data, and patterns you need for your song, use
Pattern Chain
to arrange the pieces in real time. This
hands-on approach makes it easier than ever to come
up with great ideas and amazing songs.
Song Scene
is another powerful tool that lets you take
“snapshots” of the sequencer track settings (such as
pan, volume, track mute and so on). Then, during
playback or recording, simply switch among the
Scenes for instant, dynamic changes.
Master mode
— for using the MOTIF ES as a master
keyboard controller (with independent Zones), and for
easily reconfiguring the instrument between Voice/
Performance play and Song/Pattern play in live
applications.
Exceptionally
easy-to-understand interface
with two-
tiered operation buttons: [F1] - [F6] and [SF1] - [SF5]
Remote Control
— for operating your favorite
sequencing software from the panel controls. Mute
tracks, control transport (Play, Stop, Record, etc.), mix
both MIDI and audio tracks (up to 16) with this
instrument’s knobs and sliders, pan the tracks, control
EQ, and tweak effect sends — all without ever touching
the mouse.
Three
Modular Synthesis Plug-in System
slots let
you upgrade the MOTIF ES with a completely new
synthesizer or sound-processing engine. These Plug-in
boards give you more voices, more effects, more
polyphony and more instrument parts. Plus, special
Plug-in voices have already been programmed and
stored to the MOTIF ES, ready to be played as soon as
you install the proper board.
A full rear panel of input/output connections provides
maximum interfacing flexibility. These include
Assignable Outputs, A/D Inputs, MIDI, two USB
connectors and a memory card slot. Moreover, an
optional AIEB2 or mLAN16E board can be installed.
The
mLAN interface
is particularly powerful — making
it possible to transfer both digital audio and MIDI data
via a single broadband cable.
The instrument features
two USB connectors
— USB
TO HOST for connecting to computer, and USB TO
DEVICE for connecting to storage devices, such as a
hard disk drive or flash disk.
Included software
— the CD-ROM accompanying
your instrument (Tools for MOTIF ES) features a variety
of convenient and powerful programs for using the
MOTIF ES with a computer. These include the
Voice
Editor
which provides comprehensive, easy-to-use
editing features and parameters, and a

1 Keyboard
The MOTIF ES6 features a 61-key keyboard, while the
MOTIF ES7 has 76 keys and the MOTIF ES8 has 88 keys.
All are equipped with a touch response feature (both initial
touch and aftertouch). With initial touch, the instrument
senses how strongly or softly you play the keys, and uses
that playing strength to affect the sound in various ways,
depending on the selected voice. With aftertouch, the
instrument senses how much pressure you apply to the
keys while playing, and uses that pressure to affect the
sound in various ways, depending on the selected voice.
Moreover, any of a variety of functions can be assigned to
aftertouch for each voice.
2 OCTAVE [UP] and [DOWN] buttons Page 63
Use these buttons to change the note range of the
keyboard. To restore the normal octave setting, press both
buttons simultaneously.
n Because of its extended keyboard, the MOTIF ES8 does not have
OCTAVE buttons.
3 Pitch bend wheel Page 64
Controls the pitch bend effect. You can also assign other
functions to this controller.
4 Modulation wheel Page 64
Controls the modulation effect. You can also assign other
functions to this controller.
5 Ribbon controller Page 65
This Controller is touch sensitive, and is controlled by
running your finger lightly across its surface laterally.
You can also assign other functions to this controller.
6 MASTER VOLUME
Adjusts the volume of the overall sound, as output from
the rear-panel OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks as well as
the PHONES jack.
7 Four KNOB CONTROL FUNCTION buttons and
four Knobs Page 50
These four highly versatile knobs let you adjust various
aspects or parameters of the current Voice. Use the
[KNOB CONTROL FUNCTION] buttons to change the
parameter set for the knobs. The corresponding LED
lights to indicate which group of parameters are active.

The Controls & Connectors
8 [CS1] - [CS4] (Control Slider) Page 51
These sliders control the volume of four elements which
make up a Normal Voice in the Voice mode, the volume of
four parts in the Performance mode, the volume of four
parts including the current part in the Song mode/Pattern
mode, and the volume of four zones in the Master mode.
n If all of the Control Sliders are set to the minimum, you may not
hear any sound from the instrument, even when playing the
keyboard or a song/pattern. If this is the case, raise all the sliders
to a suitable level.
n The [MASTER VOLUME] slider adjusts the output level from this
instrument. On the other hand, the Control Slider adjusts the MIDI
volume value for the corresponding element or part.
9 REMOTE buttons Page 147
The Remote mode lets you control sequencer software on
your computer from the panel controls of the instrument.
Turn the [ON/OFF] button on to enter the Remote mode.
You can use the [R-AUDIO/G-MIDI] button to switch
control between your audio tracks (red lamp) and MIDI
tracks (green lamp), when Mode A or B is set to “General”
([UTILITY] [F4] CTL ASN [SF4] REMOTE).
n When setting the MIDI IN/OUT parameter to “MIDI” ([UTILITY]
[F5] MIDI [SF4] OTHER) or setting both of Mode A and Mode B
to “off” ([UTILITY] [F4] CTL ASN [SF4] REMOTE), you
cannot enter the Remote mode even by pressing the REMOTE
[ON/OFF] button. Set these parameters to appropriate values
(page 148) then enter the Remote mode.
) EFFECT buttons Page 177
The extensive effect section of the instrument provides
Insertion effects (eight sets, with two effect units per set),
System effects (Reverb and Chorus), and Master effects.
The effects can be applied to the keyboard-played voices
and to Song/Pattern playback. These three buttons enable
you to turn the corresponding Effect blocks (as printed on
the panel) on or off with a single touch.
Keep in mind that the [INSERTION] and [SYSTEM] buttons
are bypass switches, while the [MASTER EFFECT] button
is an on/off switch. The distinction is important — when
the lamp of the [INSERTION] or [SYSTEM] button is on,
the effect is off (or bypassed). The [MASTER EFFECT]
button is the opposite: when the lamp is on, the Master
effect is on. Also, to access the Master Effect setting
display, press and hold the [MASTER EFFECT] button for
a second or two.
! [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button Page 66
Press this button to enable or disable playback of the
Arpeggio for each Voice, Performance, Song, or Pattern. If
the Arpeggio Switch of the selected part is set to off in the
Performance/Song/Pattern mode, however, pressing this
button has no effect.
