Good question, a motif is "a short succession of notes producing a single impression; a brief melodic or rhythmic formula out of which longer passages are developed." Like an arpeggio or a lick. My question is how is this accomplished in BIAB. It seems this would need a bit of time, so you have to give it room to play. Can't lay out a 1/16th chordal run and expect the moftif to make itself evident. So maybe it does not play the chord but rather just the an individual chord tone(s) for as long as it has time until it hits the next chord. I hope to find the time some day to figure all this out.

And regarding what Mario said. Sounds interesting, but is that true?
