I have been sequencing with a Motif ES8, and more recently, an XF8. Usually, I use a different track for each voice, but there are times when I want different voices on the same part. How can I switch back and forth between different voices in the same track in song mode? |

Insert a PC (Program Change) command in the track data a few clock pulse before you need the sound to change. See page 150 of the Reference Manual “Editing MIDI Events (Song Edit)” > “Event List display and Insert Event window” See this article here on Motifator that shows how to select specific Voices and how to insert that data into the sequence Bank Select and Program Change Motif XF If you get stuck post back here. |

Hi. Does a cross-reference table exist that shows the specific MSB/LSB/Data numbers for each voice within each bank on the Motif? Thanks, in advance. |

Assuming that I understand your question…
The Voice List and Drum Voice List are in the Data List. If you don’t have it handy, you can download the PDF:
The MSB and LSB are given at the top of each bank table, and the PC value is one less than the number of each Voice in the table. Of course, the support article that Bad_Mister provided a link to gives the MSB/LSB (it’s also in the Data List), and the PC value is easily determined from the Voice’s location in the XF. |

Man, if it were a snake it could’ve bit me. I was looking at these tables last night and missed the heading. That’s exactly what I am looking for. Thanks (again) 5pin! |

You’re welcome. At least some things related to the XF aren’t too convoluted. Â :-) |
