Steve, you guys are getting way off track for this point in time. Just set it up for GM/XG like I said earlier. GM works automatically, no need for you to mess with setting up midi channels, figuring out patch maps, ins files or any of that stuff. Simply find out how you put your Motif in GM or XG mode (Yamaha's version of GM) and you're done. Biab sends all midi data in GM mode by default. Once you get that working then we can see about having you access the higher patches. If your Motif has a good sounding GM soundbank you may not care about the rest.

The big advantage of using a GM synth is you don't have to do anything, it's a nobrainer. The big disadvantage is some GM soundbanks sound weak and people start looking for better sounds.
