Steve,

A word about the image I've posted a few posts up.

This list says ...

1. BIAB's Bass track is assigned to send MIDI information on MIDI channel 2. What this means from your keyboard's perspective is that it needs to have a bass sound set up on MIDI channel 2 if it's to produce a suitable sound.

2. Since BIAB transmits its Piano track data on channel 3, then your keyboard needs to have a suitable sound set on MIDI channel 3 so that the data sent by BIAB can play it and sound good.

3. The same is true for all other BIAB tracks. The channel given in the image indicates what MIDI channel on the Motif 8 needs to be assigned a sound.

It's certainly a very advanced and comprehensive keyboard. Have you been back to your Yamaha dealer and asked them to show how to set it up?

Regards,
Noel
