Auto settings of Remote Device
With Extensions for Steinberg DAW installed, the MOTIF XS
connected to a computer via an IEEE1394 cable will be regis-
tered as the Remote Device of Cubase. Also, the detailed settings
such as MIDI Ports will be set automatically. You can confirm
these points by selecting [Devices]
→
[Device Setup] to call up
the Device Setup dialog box.
For details about function assignments, refer to the Owner's
Manual and Data List 2 of the MOTIF XS.
The Remote Device name shown in Cubase and the MIDI Port
name are as follows:
Remote Device name :
Yamaha MOTIF XS
MIDI In and Out Port name :
MOTIF XS Remote
• Even if the MIDI Port is changed, it will be reset to the above one
when Cubase is restarted.
• The Remote Control function is available also when the MOTIF XS
is connected to a computer via a USB cable. In this case, click [+]
from the Device Setup window to call up the Device List, and then
select “Yamaha MOTIF XS.” You will also need to set the MIDI
Ports manually in this case.

In the initial setting, “All MIDI Inputs” may be applied to
the MOTIF XS Remote port. This means that MIDI mes-
sages generated by operating Remote Controls such as
Transport Control on the MOTIF XS panel may be
recorded to a track of a Cubase Project. You will need to
remove the “All MIDI Inputs” from “MOTIF XS Remote”
via the following instructions so that MIDI messages
unnecessary for Song creation are not recorded to a track
of a Cubase Project.
1. Select [Devices]
→ [Device Setup] to call up the Device
Setup dialog box.
2. Select “MIDI Port Setup” from the Device column.
3. Remove the checkmark from the “All Inputs” column in
the “mLAN MIDI In/MOTIF XS remote” row.
4. Click [OK] to close the Device Setup dialog box
NOTE
• This setting will be maintained the next time you start up Cubase.
• Please refer to the Cubase Operation Guide for more information
on setting up Cubase parameters.
