Yamaha MOTIF Rack ES for Production Studio, Keyboard and LiveWith the growth of project studios and computer-based production, customers now demand versatile, powerful products that can fit into smaller spaces. Yamaha combines the sonic power of the Yamaha Motif ES music production synthesizer and the convenience of a compact 1-RU rack mounted system with the debut of the Motif Rack ES, an ideal addition to any personal music production studio, keyboard workstation or live performance system.“A rack mounted version of the Motif ES has been one of our most requested products,” states Athan Billias, director of Technology Products, Yamaha Corporation of America. “The Motif Rack ES will certainly appeal to customers who don’t necessarily need another keyboard, yet want to tap into the power and sound bank of the Motif ES, as well as those who want to expand their current systems.” Currently available, the Motif Rack ES inherits the advanced features of its keyboard counterpart, giving users the creative freedom that is the hallmark of the Yamaha Motif line – an enhanced synthesis engine, massive Wave ROM (175 MB in 16-bit linear format), 128 notes of polyphony, MegaVoice technology and “Phrase Factory” arpeggiator. Effects processing includes a newly designed Reverb algorithm, eight Insert Effects, 5-band Master EQ and 3-band EQs (per Part in Multi Mode). All data is compatible with current Yamaha Motif ES systems, and hands-on control is never far away with an intuitive user interface and 160 x 40 dot LCD that provides quick access to all functions. Two slots will accept Yamaha’s PLG Series modular synthesis plug-in boards for further expansion. Connections include USB-MIDI interface and MIDI IN/OUT/THRU, plus Stereo, Digital and Optical outs, four individual outputs and headphone jack. Editing application software for the Motif Rack ES includes a Voice Editor, Multipart Editor and Studio Manager V2 host software for the latest Windows and Mac platforms. The Motif Rack ES also supports Studio Connections Recall – a cross-platform total recall solution, and the first product from the Studio Connections initiative between Yamaha and Steinberg. Instant Inspiration! You need lots of sonic choices from authentic to innovative, that's why there are 1,152 Voices and 65 different Drum kits in the MOTIF-RACK ES. With the most advanced synthesis on the market, MOTIF-RACK ES 128 note polyphony, 16-part Mix architecture and 32 multi libraries insure you have the all the flexibility you need. 2 system Effects, 8 types of Mastering Effects, a 5-band master EQ, 8 simultaneous Insertion Effects, and 3-band equalization for each of the 16 Parts in a Mix let you tailor your sound exactly the way you want. The two Modular Synthesis Plug-in System expansion slots let you expand your system with more voices, effects and polyphony. 128 programmable Performances that layer and split up to 4 voices will start your creativity flowing. A USB Port, Digital I/O and Studio Connections Recall compatible software editors, let you easily integrate the MOTIF-RACK ES into your computer music system. Sonic Inspiration – From authentic emulation to creative innovation The MOTIF-RACK ES delivers a massive collection of studio quality sounds for a wide variety of musical genres. The 1,152 voices and 65 drum kits are easily accessible via the front panel Category Search function. From the Emulative Sounds of acoustic piano and orchestra to the Extreme Synthesis of cutting-edge hip-hop and electronica, the MOTIFRACK ES delivers the sonic power you need. Performances that layer and split up to four Voices and over 1,700 arpeggios from realistic Guitar strumming, to Drum Grooves to classic techno riffs, inspire new musical ideas to get your creativity flowing. Flexible Architecture to meet all your synthesis needs Thanks to Yamaha’s advanced synthesis technology, the MOTIF-RACK ES tone generator boasts 128 note polyphony and 16 Mix Parts so it’s an ideal multi timbral sound source. The synth engine offers 18 different Filter types and faster, more precise envelope controls. There are even Mix Voices so you can edit and create your own Voices while listening to your songs and store them right along with the song data. More Effects give you more control over your music The MOTIF-RACK ES has more effects than any other rack module available today. In Mix Mode, you can use 8 dual Insertion Effects simultaneously. For instance, you can have a rotary effects on the organ, distortion on the backing guitar, delay plus overdrive on the guitar solo, Compressor and EQ on the Bass, and a unique Reverb on the Drums and still have plenty of Insertion Effects left over. The Two System effects let you add just the right amount of Reverb and Chorus/Delay to any Part via the effect sends and returns. After putting everything together, the 3-band EQ for each Part lets you get just the right tonal balance in your Mix. Finally the 8 types of Master Effects (including Multi Band Compression) and 5 Band Master EQ, give your finished productions the same professional quality mastered sound as commercially produced CDs.
