MM6/MM8 Owner’s Manual
Main Features
■ High-Quality Voices for Keyboard Performance
The MM6/MM8 contains a wide range of high-quality voices (many based on the
Motif Series voices), ranging from acoustic musical instruments to unique synthesizer
sounds. Use the Category Search function to quickly call up the sounds you want,
based on their instrument type. The MM8 features an 88-key “Graded Hammer” key-
board with action that is virtually indistinguishable from an actual acoustic piano.
■ Play the Keyboard Along with a Pattern
The patterns in the MM6/MM8 were created to give you a wide range of different
musical genres simply by playing back the pattern tracks. Moreover, you can easily
record chord changes to both the patterns and your real time keyboard performance in
the Song mode.
■ Use the Arpeggio
The versatile Arpeggio feature automatically plays drum percussion phrases, guitar
phrases, and analog synthesizer style phrases in response to the keys you play.
■ Save and Switch Between Performance Settings (Performance
Memory)
The Performance Memory lets you conveniently create and store combined settings
for the voices you play (including keyboard splits and layers), the patterns you want to
assign to backing tracks, and other important settings for live performance. These per-
formance settings can be easily recalled by a single button press.
■ Controlling Filter and EG in Real Time
You can control the filter (cutoff and resonance) and EG (attack and release) in real
time by using four knobs on the panel. Even these detailed sonic changes can be saved
in the Performance Memory.
■ Save Performance Data to a USB Storage Device
Transferring data between the MM6/MM8 and your computer is easy because the
MM6/MM8 can store data and setting to standard USB storage devices.
■ Create Music with Your Computer and the Bundled DAW Soft-
ware
You can connect the MM6/MM8 to your computer using a USB cable, and transfer
MIDI data to and from DAW software. With the Bundled DAW software the MM6/
MM8 becomes the central tone generator for your computer based music production
system.
