What we are doing here is setting up so that we
can (via MIDI) …

1) …remote control the 01X via Studio Manager

software. “Studio Manager” can be thought of as
mirror of the internal digital mixer.

2) …remote control the Digital Audio Workstation

(DAW) sequencer from the front panel of the 01X
(when the 01X’s red Remote is lit) – there are an
unlimited number of control channels in Remote
mode in banks of 8 channels.

3) …remote control the Motif ES via the “Multi-Part

Editor for Motif ES” from the 01X (when the red
Remote is flashing [SHIFT] + [REMOTE]). Motif ES
parameters will be shown in the 01X screen.

4) …remote control the Motif Rack via Multi-Part Editor

for Motif Rack from the Motif ES front panel – this
will be using the Motif ES’s ability to act as a
general remote control device.

STUDIO MANAGER System Setup

Under the FILE menu find SYSTEM SETUP.

Studio Manager SYSTEM SETUP shown above –

remote control is on mLAN PORT 4. The function
of Studio Manager is to be a bi-directional and

simultaneous control over the internal 01X

digital mixer. This will become clearer as you
begin to work. When you make a change on the

front panel of the 01X it will be immediately

reflected on the Studio Manager software and vice
versa. Studio Manager will also save all your

Libraries: Input/Output Patch library, EQ library,

Dynamics library and Effects library. The beauty

of Studio Manager is it is a representation of
exactly what you are doing on the hardware 01X.

Studio Manager files (.x1x) will contain not only a

snapshot of the initial condition of the 01X for
each session – it can contain all the Library files.

That is, all your Effect setups, EQ library, Dynamic

Processor library, Scenes and Input/Output Patch
library. [See the Power User on “Studio Manager”

for more details].
