How do i get my sound back on motif after using the local control on and off, I mean I was using it as a virtual instrument controller in my DAW, but after disconnecting it and going back to trying to play it as a standalone, I gets no sound out of it. Can anyone help, any suggestion would do.
After messing around I got it back right, thanks anyway now I can't wait to get my Motif Music Production Video
"messing around" is cool... Just for those in such a bind... remember... "Local Control On/Off" is responsible for allowing the Controllers (keys, wheels, knobs, sliders, etc) to address the "local" (internal) tone generator when ON, and when set to OFF they generate MIDI messages that are directed OUT via MIDI
Local Control is a MIDI routing function.
You should always concern yourself with both MIDI routing and AUDIO. It always seems to come down to MIDI and AUDIO routing.
Here is your audio checklist:
Press [UTILITY]
Press [F1] GENERAL
Press [SF1] PLAY
Make sure your VOLUME = 127
(MIDI files with Fade Outs can adjust this global Audio Output level)
Press [F2] I/O
Here you can set the "FW Monitor Setup = Stand alone"
(If set to "with PC" then audio can only be heard via VSTi routing through a VST3 compatible DAW software).
These two settings will directly impact your AUDIO output.
Just FYI.
