Connecting to External Audio Equipment

Since the MOTIF ES has no built-in speakers, you'll need an external audio system or a set of stereo headphones to properly
monitor it. The following illustrations show various connection examples; use the one most similar to your intended setup.

Audio Output

Connecting stereo powered speakers (analog output)
For optimum, accurate reproduction of the instrument's rich sounds, effects and full stereo image, use a pair of powered
speakers. Connect the powered speakers to the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks on the rear panel.

When using just one powered speaker, connect it to the OUTPUT L/MONO jack on the rear panel.
Connecting a mixer
There are extra audio outputs in addition to the OUTPUT (L/MONO and R) jacks. Connect these outputs to a mixer for separately
controlling the analog outputs of Drum keys or parts (Performance, Song, and Pattern). You can expand the output capabilities
by installing the optional I/O board (AIEB2) or the optional mLAN16E. Installing the AIEB2 adds six extra OUTPUT jacks, while
installing the mLAN16E expands the output capabilities with fourteen addition digital outputs, over a single FireWire (IEEE 1394)
connector/cable. For details on how to set the Part/output jack assignments, refer to the chart below.
