The Best of the Legendary Motif XF Workstation
----------------------------------------------
We’ve updated the popular MOX Series with the latest MOTIF XF
technology by adding more sounds, more effects and even a Flash
board option slot. Because it’s compatible with MOTIF XF and MOX
data, MOXF has a huge collection of sound and sample libraries
and optional software available right away. Expandable, portable,
affordable, and compatible with a wide range of other products,
these instruments brings MOTIF music production power to a whole
new generation of musicians and producers.
A Universe of Sounds from a Decade of Motifs
--------------------------------------------
The new MOXF series combines a MOTIF XF sound engine and Flash
memory expandability, a MIDI keyboard controller with extensive
DAW and VST control, USB Audio/MIDI interfacing, onboard
sequencing, and an extensive DAW / VST software bundle.
High Quality Sounds of All Varieties
------------------------------------
The MOXF boasts a rich collection of instrument voices that
includes pianos, electric pianos, strings, wind instruments,
orchestral sounds, guitars, basses, and drums, as well as a wide
variety of vintage and modern synth sounds.
MOTIF XF sound engine
---------------------
Of special note are the detailed digital re-creations of two
Yamaha grand pianos (a 9-ft CFIIIS and a 7-ft S6) that only an
acoustic piano manufacturer could achieve. The finely-detailed
reproduction of even very subtle nuances has resulted in
exquisitely crafted piano voices that will satisfy even the most
demanding players. Now containing a huge total of 741 MB of
waveforms, and featuring all-new content, the MOXF offers 136 new
voices including the superb S6 grand piano, keyboard sounds such
as clavinets and organs, and a range of new sounds from genres as
diverse as orchestral and hip-hop.
Performance mode to enhance your creativity
-------------------------------------------
Performance mode allows you to combine multiple voices together
(up to 4 parts) and play them on one MIDI channel, so that you
can play dynamic layer sounds or even solos along with drums and
bass backing tracks. With the interactive Arp engine, playing
simple chords or even single notes gives you complete musical
performances to inspire your creativity. The MOXF has 256 preset
performances in a wide variety of music styles including rock,
world, hip hop, jazz, and more.
Advanced computer integration makes the MOXF the center of your
music production studio
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The MOXF comes with a variety of music production software that
allows you to integrate it with your computer setup. These
include the MOXF Editor for detailed editing of voice and mixing
parameters, MOXF Remote Editor, a convenient tool that lets you
edit and create control templates for your favorite VST
instruments, and Remote Tools, which makes integration with
Cubase software incredibly simple. A single USB cable is all you
need to transmit both audio and MIDI data between the MOXF and
your computer. The MOXF features a built-in 4-in 2-out USB audio
interface so you can record its internal sounds, and two
dedicated audio inputs that can be used to capture guitars and
vocals all recorded directly to your computer.
Music production with Cubase AI 7
---------------------------------
Cubase AI 7 is a version of Steinberg’s DAW (Digital Audio
Workstation) software made specifically to integrate with Yamaha
music production synthesizers. Because the MOXF features both a
MIDI and an audio interface you can record up to 32 audio and 48
MIDI tracks. You can even connect an analog mixer, microphone or
guitar to the analog inputs, you can record any instrument to
your computer via the MOXF. With built-in effects and the ability
to control up to 16 VST instruments, Cubase AI lets you perform
the complete computer music production process, including
notation, scoring, and automated mixing.
Easy operation and comprehensive controls
-----------------------------------------
Category search mode features 16 different instrument categories,
each with its own sub-categories, so getting the sound you need
is a fast and intuitive process. With Performance Creator you can
easily build up layer or split performances with a single button
press. Start with a voice you like, and then press LAYER to have
the MOXF choose a suitable layer sound. Press SPLIT to call up a
left hand bass sound automatically, and then go to DRUM ASSIGN to
access the huge variety of built-in rhythm patterns available.
Awesome piano action -- on the go!
----------------------------------
A lightweight body (MOXF6: 7.1kg (15.7lbs), MOXF8: 14.9kg
(32.9lbs)) means that carrying the MOXF to rehearsals or gigs is
easy— pound-for-pound these are the most powerful workstations
Yamaha has ever made. The MOXF8 features an 88-key GHS keyboard
that provides authentic, realistic keyboard response—much like
the playing feel of an acoustic piano—with a heavy touch in the
bass register that changes to a lighter one in the treble, and a
natural gradation of touch in between. Meanwhile, the MOXF6
offers a 61-key, semi-weighted keyboard that has been designed
and adjusted so that you can easily and expressively play the
rich variety of sounds the instrument offers.
