I can draw a sore comparison to Apple here: I heart my 2008 Mac Pro, but the newest update is underwhelming in its lack of superb advances (boasting a '1.3x' speed gain over the previous gen on some of their marketing pages is sad!). Overall, I'm disappointed that subsequent generations from the old-guard of hardware synth manufacturers tend to be incremental and lodged too much in tradition. Therefore, Yamaha's focus is off: instead of trying to compete on spec counts where they've been soundly trounced time and time again, they should focus on the robustness of their hardware, e.g., 'For live players, it's as solid as a tank!' (I don't know if that's actually true of the Motif XF, but with prices like that, it had better be.)

I'm disappointed when I download some soft synths and it boasts many presets but most of them don't make use of mod wheel, aftertouch (highly underrated), etc.

The 'arpeggiators' make me think of how Korg Karma doesn't have a great software synth counterpart yet. HOWEVER, numbers aside, where these 'legacy' devices continue to have a foothold is when veteran sound designers make sounds (regardless of raw memory count) expressive and articulate and use the hardware controllers to make it playable live without a second thought. Disappointed to see Erik Norlander make such a claim too - his demo song for the Alesis QS-series over a decade ago is a fave, but spec-wise, they're stretching.

In comparison with that, '2 GB of additional content' isn't impressive either. '741 MB' is meagre compared to many virtual instrument sample libraries it's misleading to call it 'enormous' in a day and age where 2TB hard drives cost less than US$100.

Scalability through standard-equipped USB and Ethernet and the FW16E option.

DAW integration through remote control, an editor software.

Cubase AI - a DAW software application from Steinberg.

Category Search feature that provides instant access to the Voices you want.

Improvement of usability thanks to the use of a new GUI.

The popular FSX (MOTIF XF6/7) and BH (MOTIF XF8) keyboards.

Enhanced sampling through 128MB of onboard SD-RAM.

384 types of performances based on approximately 7800 types of arpeggiators.

Reproduction of the unique, natural, warm sounds of vintage instruments through VCM effects.

Realization of unique instrument performance methods through the XA (Expanded Articulation) tone generation system.

Up to 2GB of additional content available through separately sold flash memory.

An additional 128 Voices and 8 drum kits, for a total of 1,353 high-quality Voices.

Comprehensive high sound quality, including an enormous 741MB of waveforms.

вЂњYou can truly make this instrument your own you can truly give it your own personality.вЂќ вЂњWhatвЂ™s incredible about the Motif XF is that we now have two gigabytes of Flash RAM available this really allows an unparalleled level of customization,вЂќ said Erik Norlander, sound designer at Sonic Reality.

User-generated or downloaded sounds saved onto these modules only need to be loaded once and are always inside the Motif XF until the user replaces them. What makes the Motif XF truly customizable is the 2 GB of additional content that can be loaded onto optional Flash RAM expansion modules, located in two slots on the XF that accommodate, including the proprietary FL512M (512MB) and FL1024M (1 GB) Yamaha flash option boards. Motif XF includes 741 MB of internal Wave ROM, the largest internal sound library ever created for a keyboard, according to Yamaha, including detailed digital recreations of two Yamaha acoustic grand piano sounds, realistic acoustic instruments, vintage synths and hip-hop sounds. Yamaha has introduced its вЂњnext generationвЂќ keyboard workstation, the Motif XF series, which features a ginormous sample library.
