Hello: Wondering if there is any information or links that anyone can provide on using the motif with MS. I can get the sliders to map but nothing else. thanks

Thanks for the reponse. well..first thing i've noticed is that my macbook pro is not recognizing my motif under utilities/ audio midi. This probably explains why I can't see any midi details in MS for my midi keyboard under preferences/midi/setup. I did go and download the midi drivers from yamaha and that did not work. I th ought this keyboard would be recognized as a legacy device. I'm trying to map path up and down to the motif's up and down buttons on the keyboard

version 10.6.4 MS 2

Just purchased mainely for MS. Haven't spent any time in logic.

thanks i've been going through the video tutorials to learn MS. I can use the motif to trigger MS sounds, soft synths. I just can't seem to assign other controls within the motif to MS. My sliders on the motif are assignable. Still mac os is not recognizing the motif even though I checked that the drivers are present under library/audio/midi/yamaha usb mididriver.plugin

from within the motif, i've set it up to communicated via usb cable. There is a DAW option wich I set to Logic.

Great thanks I will try this today. I have a UC33 but was trying to avoid carrying more hardware if possible.

I've learned so much from the mainstage 2 videos. they are great.!!! The suggestion came up to use the built in audio output of the mac book pro instead of using an audio interface. I have a firewire audio interface. If i'm only using it for audio puroses and i'm not connecting anything else to it, should I just use the laptop's mini audio out? Will this use up more CPU cycles? Thanks

Thanks i'm using Maudio firewire (can't remember the model). Bill Burgess had mentioned that he's had some fire wire interfaces die on him when it mattered most and to carry a mini audio with a male XLR's as a backup. My goal is to try and minimize additional equipment to have to carry, but if there is a noticeable improvement in sound quality, I'll keep using it.

Wow I took a look at the Apogee duet. Really small looking. Allot smaller than the maudio firewire i'm using. I might look into getting something like that.
