Yamaha MOTIF XS7 Manuel D’Utilisation

The setting of the tone generator block for Song/Pattern playback is referred to as Mixing. The Mixing mode lets you change 
the Voice and effect settings for each Part. 
To enter the Mixing mode, press the [MIXING] button in the Song mode or Pattern mode. 

n The Mixing mode cannot be called up from the Voice mode, Performance mode, or Master mode. 

This section explains in detail about the Mixing mode and what you can do in the Mixing mode. 

In the Song/Pattern mode, the internal tone generator block 
functions as the multi-timbral tone generator in order to 
receive and handle MIDI sequence data consisting of 
multiple channels. The settings for the multi-timbral tone 
generator are collectively referred to as a “Mixing.” A 
Mixing program is provided for each Song or Pattern. 
Selecting a different Song/Pattern calls up the different 
Mixing program. 

The Mixing Edit mode consists of two sub modes: Common 
Edit and Part Edit. Common Edit lets you edit the global 
settings common to all Parts, such as the Master Effect, the 
Master EQ, and the Controller settings. Part Edit lets you 
adjust various parameters for each of 16 Parts according 
to the corresponding Song/Pattern track. 

In the Mixing mode, two EQ blocks and three Effect blocks 
are available. 
The two EQ blocks in the Mixing mode are Part EQ and 
Master EQ. Part EQ is applied to each of the Mixing Parts 
and can be set in the EQ display (page 236) of Part Edit. In 
addition, the Part EQ parameters can be adjusted at the 
same time for all parts in the Part EQ display (page 233) of 
Common Edit. On the other hand, Master EQ is applied to 
the overall sound (all the Mixing Parts) and can be set in 
the Master EQ display (page 234) of Common Edit. 
The Effect blocks in the Mixing mode are Reverb, Chorus, 
and Master Effect. Reverb and Chorus are applied to the 
overall sound and the related parameters can be set in the 
Reverb/Chorus display (page 235) of Common Edit. The 
depth (send level) of the Reverb/Chorus can be set for 
each Part in the Connect display (page 234) of Part Edit. 
On the other hand, Master Effect is applied to the overall 
sound (all the Mixing Parts) and can be set in the Master 
Effect display (page 234) of Common Edit.
