Multi Part Editor Files
All Songs in the MOTIF ES can be made up of voices selected from the collection of User Voices
stored in the MOTIF ES. When a voice is modified, each Song that utilizes that voice will be
modified as well and as a result, your Song may not sound the way they did when you first made
them. This is why Multi Part Editor files contain not only Multi data (pan, volume, effects and mixer
settings, etc.) but User Voice data as well, ensuring that the voices which were used when the
Song was made can be saved and recalled.
For example, let’s say you want to play a Multi, but you’ve edited or even overwritten some of the
voices it uses. In this case, if you saved the Multi using Multi Part Editor, you can simply send the
User Voice data from Multi Part Editor back to the MOTIF ES (page 31). The Multi will sound just
as it did when you saved it.
n When transmitting the User Voice data of the Multi Part Editor to the MOTIF ES, the User Voice data saved
in the MOTIF ES will be lost.
Each file contains Multi data (Mixing
data) and the User Voice data used by
the Multi.
All Songs share the same collection of
User Voices.
