Yamaha Motif XS: Hello. I’m Blake Angelos. I’m from Yamaha Corporation in America, here to talk a little bit about the Motif XS. The Motif XS is our flagship work station. It features a wide range of great sounds, like this 9-foot concert grand piano. Pretty much the most expressive work station on the market. You have a lot of elements of the sounds such as key-off sampling, articulations on different types of sounds built into the unit. Bottom line is that you have a great deal of expression: harmonics, slides, all built into this extremely expressive work station. You have a wide variety of performances which give you basically a full band playing behind you, and anything like that. If this is an idea for a song, it’s just a matter of playing that into this sequence, and those are tracked onto the sequencer built in. The Motif, also, over the next few months, we’re going to release a lot of new samples on Motivator.com, which is our website for it, the Motif expanded sample pack. It will include a new piano that’s taken from our S700, $250,000 handmade concert grand. We’re going to include that on the website coming up over the next few months, add a whole lot of new sounds to it such as a new strings and new scat choir. And that’s a little overview of what we have from the Motif XS from Yamaha. Thanks.
