Yamaha Motif Xf8 Vst
I just recently got the Motif XS Editor VST working in a VST2 host via a VST3 wrapper, so I was curious what might be the problem here and decided to look into it. Unlike the last time I took a look at Reaper, VST3 is now in fact supported there. After giving it a try myself, it does seem to work as long as one particular step taken, similar to when running in a VST2 host. If you wish to skip the detailed tutorial, this particular step is shown in the attached images. Barring some surprising change in the way that the XF Editor VST functions, things should be identical there as well as in the MOXF Editor VST.
Disclaimer: I'm not at all familiar with Reaper, so my test was carried out using default settings and I can't say whether there might be some configuration issues that could get in the way if things aren't in a default state.

- Audio Return Ports. Please set up your AUDIO by going to the Motif XF VST Editor FILE VSTi SETUP On the top item select your audio interface as the LEFT and RIGHT Return - the Steinberg USB AUDIO Driver. You need to setup the Motif XF VST to RETURN audio through your UR22.
- Motif Xf Vst Plugin Download Torrent. The MOTIF XS Editor Standalone / VST, based on the “VST3 technology” by Steinberg, works as a VST3 plug-in with Cubase series. The MOTIF XS Editor Standalone / VST also works as the same way as other VST instrument software, allowing you to save the edited settings of the MOTIF XS, or use.
- First, I created a new project. From the Track menu, I choose 'Insert virtual instrument on new track..'
- From the window that pops up, select the appropriate VST (XF, XS, or MOXF).
- Reaper will suggest adding tracks for all of the Motif's digital outputs. If you are using an XS/XF with an mLAN/FireWire connection, or if you have a MOXF (which uses USB for both MIDI and audio), you may want to accept this suggestion. Otherwise, you won't actually be able to use those digital outputs and so you should decline.
Note: I'm presently testing on a computer without FireWire ports, so I can't test whether these digital inputs actually work as expected within Reaper.
- Within the VST, under the File menu select 'Setup..'
- At the top left under 'Data Port', select the connection matching the cable you've used to connect your Motif to your computer.
- If you are using USB, the 'Detail' option will most likely be 'Off' and you will see the message 'Ports have not been properly set.' Change the 'Detail' option to 'On'.
- If using USB, with 'Detail' now set to 'On', more options will become available. For 'Port 4' select 'Motif XF-4' (or XS, or MOXF) in both boxes.
Note: Under 'Port 1 / MIDI Out', the only option available will be 'Not Assigned'. This is due to some difference between Cubase's VST3 implementation and other DAWs (at least both Reaper and Studio One). From what I have found, the other DAWs claim to be in compliance with the VST3 standard, while Yamaha/Steinberg support will say the problem is with those other DAWs. In any case, at present, Port 1 MIDI output is not available when using one of these VSTs with Reaper. Thankfully this is not at all a showstopper; I'll describe the workaround in a bit.
Please be careful: these Editor VSTs are capable of completely rewriting the User data in your Motif/MOXF. Make a backup of your data, and then be sure that you have the synchronization set in the direction you actually want (either Motif -> PC or PC -> Motif). You should generally only use 'PC -> Motif' synchronization if you are loading a previously saved Editor file.
- With Port 4 assigned, the VST should now be able to establish a connection with your Yamaha hardware. Configure the rest of the synchronization settings as you desire, then click 'OK'.
- If you set 'Auto Start' to off, you will now manually start the connection. Click the 'OFFLINE' button, review the settings, then click Start. After some time for data transfer, the connection should be established!
- As mentioned earlier, Port 1 MIDI output through the VST is non-functional in Reaper. Port 4 is used for all data and parameter manipulation in the Editor window, while Port 1 is used for note data. So, instead, you will have to create a separate track to send note messages to the Motif.
- Outside the VST in Reaper, select Options menu and choose 'Preferences..'
- Under MIDI Devices, in the MIDI Outputs section, ensure that port 1 is enabled (called something like 'Yamaha MOTIF XF-1'). Click Apply and close the window.
- Select the Track menu and choose 'Insert new track'
- In the mixer section at the bottom of the project window, click the 'Route' button on your newly created track
- Set the MIDI Hardware Output to your Motif.
