Help with workstation recording

Maybe you can carry your work to computer it will make your job easier instead of dealing with 16track sequencer. In your situation you can use midi to sync your keyboard with cubase, so can directly record what you have in your sequencer in right time position.

I'm thinking on buying a mixer recorder directly... and I did the same that Jammun a couple of times, record by parts the instruments (drums and bass) and then go and explore the leads an everything... let me know how the boss works or what you finally record your songs... It's suppose that the workstation are easier to use... but I still don't get it...

Hi! Thanks for the info. The aw16g looks like a nice bit of kit, although a good bit more expensive than the Boss. I've had a quick look at reviews of the aw16g (very positive), and I also checked out the motifator site. Plenty of stuff there to keep me busy this weekend... guess the laminate flooring will have to keep. One other possible option would be the mLAN16E board which allows the Motif to communicate directly with a computer. looks like i'll need to do a good bit more research, but you've definitely pointed me in the right direction. Cheers!    

I use a Yamaha Motif XS6 workstation for writing songs. However, i'm a bit technically challenged and am more used to working with a piano. The problem I have is transfering my completed songs from the Motif. Cubase is bundled with the Motif and I have installed it on my computer... but I can't be bothered with all that faffing about between workstation and computer. I was thinking of getting a Boss BR-900CD. Can anyone out there tell me if it's possible to record direct from a Motif  XS6 onto the Boss using a simple line out? Thank you all advice greatly appreciated.
