When I add an organ Voice to my Performance the Rotary Effect goes missing. Do I have to save this as a User Voice with the rotary Insert Effect? I checked the proper boxes in the Effects menu and it says I’m using three Insert Effects, including the Part my organ is using. Am I missing something? |

If I remember correctly, besides the MOXF, you also have a MOX. The MOX is limited to the dual Insertion Effects being applied to three Parts, but the MOXF can have up to eight, so the number shouldn’t be an issue in a Performance. 1) Are you starting with an Initialized Performance? 2) Are you saying by pressing [PERFORM] > [EDIT] > [COMMON] > [F6]EFFECT > [SF2]INS SW you verified that the effect is turned on for the required Parts? 3) Which specific Voice are you having problems with? |

I’m working on the MOXF now. It was a preset Performance with four parts, Piano, Bass, Guitar Drums. So it was never initialized per se. I took out the guitar and turned that Part (3) into a tone wheel organ. And then I checked in Effects to make sure the Ins FX switch was on for Part 3. Still don’t get the rotary effect. The Voice is Progressy, but I tried various B3 type Voices and none of them keep their rotary FX. I’m thinking there’s some setting “left over” from the Preset when that Part was a Light Blues guitar. |

Sorry, I left a couple of button pushes out of my question #2 above (now corrected). There are settings in both Common Edit and Part Edit. From your reply, I’m not sure which you’ve checked.
Common Edit:
Probably - that’s why I asked if you had started with an initialized Performance. Please look at both of the switch settings, they should agree. -------------- Or, you could initialize a Performance, use the COPY Job (see page 70 of the MOXF Reference Manual) to copy the Common and Part 1, 2 and 4 settings from your Performance to the initialized one, and then set up Part 3. |

If rather than the Rotary Speaker effect not being present, it’s just that the Mod Wheel isn’t controlling it, see [F5]RCV SW (Receive Switch) on page 69 of the Reference Manual. |

I’m sure the solution is there in your suggestions. I have had this trouble before when working from a Preset Performance, and it kind of defeats the value of having presets to tweak. I realize its partially just my ignorance about certain parameters, but the irony is that I avoid using the Perf Creator because I also find myself chasing my tail in that mode too, especially when it comes to arpeggio parameters. And working straight from an Initialized Performance is seldom simple either. |

I’m not going to try to convince you that the various “MO” models are easy to program - they’re not, but they get easier the more you work with them, especially if you learn how to copy things from one Program (Voice/Program/Mixing) to another. As I’ve said before, the effort is rewarded. Do you remember which factory Performance you started with? If it’s one that’s also found on the XF, I could look at Part 3 and determine what’s happening. |
