MOTIF ES Gospel Sound Pack Gold Edition
“The GOLD Standard Gospel Library for the MOTIF ES.”
The Gold Edition expands the original core sound collection into a complete MOTIF ES Gospel system with 10 User Voices and 27 prepared Performances featuring keyboard layers, worship setups, click tracks, bass splits, shout setups and templates.
Your MOTIF ES must recognize 512MB of compatible installed DIMM sample RAM. Powering down the keyboard erases all sampled sounds loaded into that volatile memory.
This Is Not the Basic Edition
The Complete Gold Edition Upgrade
The original MOTIF ES library supplied the essential bread-and-butter sounds. Gold Edition keeps those core instruments, expands the User Voice bank and introduces a complete collection of prepared Performances.
Expanded User Voice Bank
The six core sounds remain, joined by Jazz Grand, two additional S700 variations and the classic Munchkins sound.
Prepared Performances
Layers, worship setups, shout arrangements, click tracks, bass splits and editable click-track templates are included.
A More Complete Live System
Gold Edition moves beyond individual sounds and gives the MOTIF ES musician prepared combinations for church and Gospel performance.
512MB of DIMM Sample RAM Is Mandatory
This library contains sampled waveforms and cannot be loaded using only the MOTIF ES factory memory. Compatible DIMM sample RAM must be installed inside the keyboard before purchasing.
Verify 512.0MB on the Screen
Open the MOTIF ES sample-memory information screen and personally verify that the keyboard recognizes 512.0MB.
Do not rely only on a seller, previous owner or assumption that memory was installed.
Allow Time to Reload
MOTIF ES DIMM memory is volatile. Powering down or power-cycling the keyboard clears the loaded sampled sounds.
Keep the library files available and reload them before the event begins.

Powering Down Erases the Loaded Sampled Sounds
The expandable DIMM sample RAM inside the MOTIF ES is volatile memory. Turning the keyboard off—or experiencing any power cycle—clears the sampled sounds from working memory.
Your preset banks remain saved, and the purchased files remain on your USB drive or computer. The sampled waveforms must simply be loaded into the keyboard again.
