Controlling a computer from the instrument
Cursor [<] and [>] buttons
By moving the cursor left/right, you can change the track or
part to controlled by the data dial and [INC/YES]/[DEC/NO]
buttons. For example, when the cursor is at the upper box in
the display, pressing the Cursor [.] button moves through the
columns in succession (1, 2, 3, 4...). After 4, the cursor is
hidden and wraps around to 1. When the cursor is shown in
the display, the parameter at which the cursor is located can
be edited by the data dial, [INC/YES] and [DEC/NO] buttons.
When the cursor is hidden, the data dial and [INC/YES]/[DEC/
NO] buttons can be used for their normal function —
controlling the song position.
Cursor [ ] and [ ] buttons
When the Mode is set to "General," the Cursor [ ]/[ ]
buttons perform the same function as that of the DISPLAY
[ ]/[ ] buttons on the 01X.
When the Mode is set to something other than "General," the
Cursor [ ]/[ ] buttons perform the same function as that of
the Cursor [ ]/[ ] buttons on the Mackie Control and Logic
Control.
[EXIT] button
When the Mode is set to "General," this button performs the
same function as that of the [PAGE SHIFT] button on the 01X.
When the Mode is set to something other than "General," the
button has no control function.

These buttons are assigned to perform the same functions as
the buttons directly over the faders on the 01X, Mackie
Control and Logic Control.

Owner's Manual
The eight knobs on the 01X, Mackie Control
and Logic Control can also be used as
switches. However, since the four Knobs on
the MOTIF ES do not have switch capability,
the [PRE1] - [PRE4] buttons are used instead.
The functions of the eight [REC/RDY] buttons
on the Mackie Control and Logic Control are
assigned to these buttons. Please note that
these buttons are not available when the
Mode is set to "General."
The functions of the eight [SOLO] buttons on
the Mackie Control and Logic Control are
assigned to these buttons. Please note that
these buttons are not available when the
Mode is set to "General."
When the Mode is set to "General," the
functions of the nine [SEL] buttons on the 01X
are assigned to these buttons. When the
Mode is set to something other than
"General," the functions of the eight [MUTE]
buttons on the Mackie Control and Logic
Control are assigned to the [1] - [8] buttons.
When the Mode is set to "General," the
functions of the nine [ON] buttons on the 01X
are assigned to these buttons. When the
Mode is set to something other than
"General," the functions of the eight [SELECT]
buttons on the Mackie Control and Logic
Control are assigned to the [9] - [16] buttons.
