"He has been using the MOTIF including all series for 10 years.
He is mainly interested in the clavinet sounds and organ sounds.
" Well I've been there since the beginning of the MOTIF. It's now the tenth anniversary, and each generation of the MOTIF has increased the quality.
Now, with this new, latest MOTIF XF, I think it's reached a very high level. It satisfies all of my keyboard needs. I don't need another keyboard for me.
So congratulations also to Yamaha technicians for producing such a great instrument and happy anniversary"."

"He has been working as a Yamaha demonstrator, a product demonstrator, for more than 10 years.
'All the major musicians worldwide were playing the MOTIF on stage, just because it had so many instantly usable sounds.
And you know, Yamaha rocks! We all know that! It has been 10 years now,
and I truly hope that we're going to keep working for another 10 years, so happy anniversary!'"

Chick's Mark V

"He was using Mark.V in his Elektric Band performances, and it always became difficult to keep it repaired. .
So he decided to sample the instrument, and that's when he came around to the process of actually sampling the Rhodes a couple of years ago.

So then right at that time, the new MOTIF with flash drive was produced.
And so the Yamaha engineers took the large file and make it fit comfortably in the flash drive.
When Chick tried it he was very happy to see that the sound is beautiful...
All of the effort that he put into making the sample was realized into the flash drive, and now a voice in the XF.
