Voice mode

The Voice Job mode contains various convenient 
operations (called “Jobs”), which are useful in editing 
and archiving your original voices.

◆ Basic Procedure 

In the Voice Play mode, select a voice you wish to 
execute the Job on.

Press the [JOB] button to enter the Voice Job 
Mode.

Select the desired Job menu by pressing the 
appropriate button, [F1] - [F6].

Set the relevant Job parameters.

Press the [ENTER] button. (The display prompts 
you for confirmation.)

Press the [INC/YES] button to execute the Job. 
After the Job has been completed, a “Completed” 
message appears and operation returns to the 
original display.

n To cancel the Job, press the [DEC/NO] button.

For Jobs that take longer to process, you will see the 
message “Executing…” during processing. If you switch 
off the power of the MOTIF while this message is 
displayed, you risk corrupting your data.

Press the [VOICE] button to exit from Voice Job 
mode and return to Voice Play mode. 

• For detailed instructions on steps #3 - #4, see the 

explanations below. 

● [F1] Initialize

This function lets you reset (initialize) all voice 
parameters to their default settings. It also allows 
you to selectively initialize certain parameters, such 
as Common settings, settings for each Element/
Drum key, and so on — very useful when creating a 
completely new voice from scratch. 

❏ Type of parameter to be initialized

When a Normal voice is selected: 
ALL, Common, EL1 ~ 4

When a Drum voice is selected: 
ALL, Common, EL

n If you turn the check mark on, you can select a 

Drum key. For details on selecting a key, see “Basic 
Operation” on page 75. 

When a Plug-in voice is selected: 
ALL, Common, EL

● [F2] Edit Recall

If you are editing a voice and select a different voice 
without storing your edited one, all the edits you’ve 
made will be erased. If this happens, you can use 
Edit Recall to restore the voice with your latest edits 
intact.

● [F3] Copy

From this display you can copy Common and 
Element/Drum Key parameter settings from any 
Voice to the Voice you are editing. This is useful if 
you are creating a Voice and wish to use some 
parameter settings from another Voice.

Select a Voice and data type to be copied. 
❏ Data type

When a Normal voice is selected: 
Common, Element 1 ~ 4

When a Drum voice is selected: 
Common, Drum key C0 ~ C6

When a Plug-in voice is selected: 
Common, Element

n If the source Voice type (Normal/Drum/Plug-in) 

differs from one of the Voice you are currently 
editing (destination), you will only be able to copy 
Common parameters.
