Question for MOXF users

[Keybass]

How difficult is it to load non-Yamaha samples like the Arturia products into the flash memory?

 

Particularly the Moog and Oberheim libraries.

Loading non-Yamaha samples that are properly set up for Yamaha is no more difficult than loading Yamaha samples, and there are plenty on motifator.com and elsewhere.

 

Loading non-Yamaha samples that are not already set up for Yamaha is more difficult, and there are various software tools available to assist you in creating Yamaha-compatible files out of other kinds of samples, or ones you generate yourself.

 

However, the Arturia products aren't samples at all, they are virtual synths. You can't load that functionality into the MOXF. If you have some particular Arturia sounds that you like, you might be able to sample those particular sounds and bring them into the MOXF, but that's not nearly the same as bringing in the actual functionality of those virtual instruments.

Of course!

 

Thanks for the great answer, I really appreciate it.
