Hi Gumby (John), welcome to Yamaha Synth and thank you for the question... The answer is, yes...

Please make sure you have downloaded and installed the MOXF6/MOXF8 Remote Tools v1.0.1 for your computer's operating system ( http://download.yamaha.com) This will install the MOXF6/MOX8 Extensions - and the Remote Editor

Go to DEVICES > DEVICE SETUP > MIDI > MIDI PORT SETUP... the "In ALL MIDI INPUTS" column defines what data goes to your MIDI tracks (that should be the "MOXF6/MOXF8-1 Port 1"... Port 1 is used by the MOXF to send MIDI note-on, controllers, tempo, etc. your musical performance data...
Please deselect MOXF6/MOX8-2 - please make sure that there is NO MARK next to Port 2... clear that box. Port 2 will be exclusively for REMOTE CONTROL commands. (If you hear notes when you press front panel buttons - it will be because you did not clear that box for PORT 2!)

Directly below the MIDI PORT SETUP folder find the REMOTE DEVICES folder > the MOXF should be listed… you must be using USB in order to use the REMOTE CONTROL Functions. Here you can select the “Yamaha MOXF6/MOXF8-2” (Port 2) as both IN and OUT. Port 2 is used exclusively for Remote Control commands between the MOXF's DAW REMOTE layer and Cubase. Make sure that PORT 2 is selected in the REMOTE DEVICES folder -

In the MOXF you need to set the CUBASE as your DAW SELECT. (this is the default)
Press [UTILITY]
Press [F1] GENERAL
Press [SF5] REMOTE
Set the DAW SELECT = CUBASE

Back in Cubase you now can launch the "MOXF6/MOXF8 Extension Setup" by going to DEVICES > MOXF6/MOX8 Extension Setup.

On the front panel of the MOXF press the [DAW REMOTE] button to retask the front panel of the MOXF to control Cubase. The transport controls (Stop/Start/Rewind/Fast Forward/To Top, etc are now transport controls for Cubase. The Function buttons have assigned functions as written on the front panel of your MOXF, the SubFunction buttons are assignable:

The [SF1] – [SF6] buttons can be assigned freely to any desired function. When “DAW Select” is set to “Cubase,” you
can use six memories to which functions assigned to the [SF1] – [SF6] buttons are registered. You can register the
functions for the [SF1] – [SF6] buttons to each memory. To switch among Memory settings 1 – 6, use the [A] – [F]
buttons on the MOXF6/MOXF8 panel. -- from the MOXF6/MOX8 Reference Manual page 135

Below you can see that on the SF ASSIGN tab I have selected Category = "TRANSPORT" and Command = "LOCATE NEXT MARKER" as the destination for the [SF1] button... there are too many functions that you can select to assign for me to even tell you a number - but rest assured if you need to remotely control a function in Cubase you can set that up as you require - whenever you require it.

If you look good on the list of COMMANDS you will also find "LOCATE PREVIOUS MARKER" - set that up as [SF2]

Hope that helps.

Wow! Thanks so much! Can't wait to try this out!
