Jazzmammal: The Motif does not explicitly have a GM mode. It does have a GM sound bank (one of 16).



taken from the Yamaha Motif-Rack ES.doc file in the bb folder

***************************************

-make sure the synth is in MULTI mode (press MULTI twice)

-from the GM menu in BB, select Send MIDI Message | Auto-
send GM mode on at startup.

-to verify that your Motif is in GM mode, simultaneously
press SHIFT + PART> and scroll to channel 10. You should
now see: VoiceNo. = 1, BankMSB = 127, BankLSB = 0

Like most all Yamaha synth modules, the Motif-Rack ES
requires bank select/program change messages to set the drum
channel (ch 10): MSB=127, LSB=0, Program Change = 1. Sending
a GM Mode ON SYSEX command from BIAB will accomplish this.

For the Motif, sending a GM Mode ON command is preferable
to sending an XG Mode ON. Although sending an XG Mode On
message will set up the drum channel to GM mode, the voices
(patches) on adjacent channels will stay set your Motif's
MULTI settings. Sending a GM Mode ON will set all channels
to GM mode.
