"The compact Yamaha MOTIF-Rack XS gives you an enormous selection of Voices based on the popular, professional-level MOTIF XS, studio-level effect processing, five real-time Control Knobs for tweaking 20 different parameters as you play, a wide-ranging library of convenient Multi-part presets, thousands of automatic Arpeggios at your fingertips, and seamless hardware/software integration...

Utilizing the very same Voices and the same tone generation architecture as the famed MOTIF XS, the compact MOTIF-Rack XS gives you everything you need for your studio productions and live performances. Boasting a full 1,152 voices and 65 drum kits, this versatile tone generator is packed full of luscious grand pianos, realistic sounds for virtually every instrument in the orchestra, vintage organs and electric pianos, expressive guitars, powerful basses, synthesizer sounds of every stripe, from classic to cutting-edge contemporary, ethnic instruments, as well as a huge variety of drum kits and percussion sets to perfectly match any music style.

What's more, the Yamaha MOTIF-Rack XS has a synthesis engine filled with 355 MB of waveform data, for a total of 2,670 separate waveforms - an amazingly broad selection of building blocks you can use to create your own Voices. These can be saved to the three User Voice banks, letting you store up to 384 of your original Voices on the instrument itself.

Versatile Multi-Mode For Full Music Production

The Multi presets provide a convenient library or multi-instrument settings you can instantly call up when composing or arranging. Each has several different Parts pre-programmed with special Voices and other settings for a variety of music genres and applications, such as r&b, hip-hop, jazz, film soundtrack, electronica, Latin styles, ballad, rock and much, much more. Just select the template you want, and instantly start recording your own song demos or full-fledged recordings. Up to 128 of your own original User Multis can be stored, too.

Studio-Quality Effects

The awesome sonic power of the MOTIF-Rack XS continues with the comprehensive, professional-level effects. Providing eight Insertion effects, two System effects, a Master effect block, as well as independent Part EQ and Master EQ, this instrument gives you more processing power than any other rack module. While the System effects (Reverb and Chorus) let you sweeten each instrument Part in the overall mix, the Insertion effects (53 available types) let you enhance or transform individual instruments as needed. The MOTIF-Rack XS also has various recently developed VCM effects, reproducing the sound of vintage processors and expensive effect units."
