What is the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor?
MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor is a convenient tool which lets you edit/create Control Templates for the MOX6/
MOX8 Music Synthesizer. These Control Templates let you assign the appropriate functions for your favorite
VSTi to the Knobs on the MOX6/MOX8. While the MOX6/MOX8 handles up to 50 Control Templates (in a
single Bank), the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor can be used to create and organize multiple Bank files, each
of which contain 50 Control Templates. Data of a single Bank containing 50 Control Templates created on the
MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor can be transferred from the computer to the MOX6/MOX8 and saved to the
computer as a single Bank file (.X4R).
Data structure of the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor
Within the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor, you can select a Bank file then edit each one of the 50 Control
Template contained in the selected Bank. After finishing your edits of the selected Bank (called “Current
Bank”), save the Bank data to a file by using the “Save” or “Save As…” menu. The Bank data saved to the file
can be recalled when starting the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor next time.
Refer to the illustration below to understand the data structure of the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor.

Operation flow from starting the application to
closing it
The MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor is a software contained in the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Tools. After installing
the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor and related applications by following the Installation Guide of the MOX6/
MOX8 Remote Tools, follow the instructions below. Before starting, make sure that the MOX6/MOX8 is
properly connected to the computer via a USB cable. There is no single way to use the many components in
the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor. Your editing needs and preferences may differ; however, the following
example gives you a simple step-by-step guide in how to use the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor.
n For details about connection between the MOX6/MOX8 instrument and a computer, refer to the Owners Manual of the
MOX6/MOX8.
n On the MOX6/MOX8, press the [UTILITY] to enter the Utility mode, then press the [F6] MIDI followed by the [SF4] OTHER.
On this display, set the MIDI In/Out parameter to “USB,” then press the [STORE] button to store this Utility setting.
n After completing installation of the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor, start the DAW software once then quit it. This operation is
necessary to scan through the DAW software for obtaining the VSTi-related information. Only DAW software produced by
Steinberg (such as Cubase) can be scanned.
1. Start the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor with the following operations.
Windows
[Start]
[All Programs] [Yamaha MOX6_MOX8 Remote Editor] [MOX6_MOX8
Remote Editor]
Mac
[Applications]
[Yamaha] [MOX6_MOX8] [MOX6_MOX8 Remote Editor]
The Auto Sync window appears and the settings of the 50 Control Templates on the MOX6/MOX8 are
transferred automatically to the Current Bank (page 9) of the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor.
Operation flow from starting the application to closing it
MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor Owner’s Manual

After transfer has been successfully completed, the Edit window appears.
n If data transfer in the Auto Sync window fails even when the MOX6/MOX8 and computer are connected
properly, make sure to set the MIDI In/Out parameter to “USB” and the Device Number parameter to “1” or “All
in the Utility MIDI display on the MOX6/MOX8.
2.Select “Setup” from the [File] menu to call up the Setup window.
3.Confirm that the MIDI Port is set to “Yamaha MOX6/MOX8,” then select the desired DAW
software from the DAW Select column.
If the MOX6/MOX8 and the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor are connected properly via USB, you can
confirm that the MIDI Port is set to “Yamaha MOX6/MOX8” when the above window appears. The DAW
selection is necessary for performing the Scan operation (“VSTi Database” menu in the [File] menu) and
obtaining the VSTi-related information.

4.Click [OK] to start the Scan operation.
The VSTi plug-ins registered to the specified DAW software will be scanned and the information
necessary for editing will be obtained.
After the scanning is completed, the previous display will appear. The setup of the MOX6/MOX8 Remote
Editor is finished.
n If the VSTi scanning is not performed when you click [OK] in step 4, select [File] [VSTi Database] [Full
Scan] to execute scanning.
5.Start the DAW software (for example, Cubase).
6.Press the [DAW REMOTE] button on the MOX6/MOX8 instrument to enter the Remote
mode.
7. Select the Control Template, then edit the selected Control Template on the Edit window.
Perform the editing referring to the “MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor Window (
page 6
)” and “Menu (
page 9
).”
When the ONLINE status is turned on (when the MOX6/MOX8 and the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor are
connected properly via USB), setting the parameters on the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor affects the
settings of the same parameters on the MOX6/MOX8 in real time. This gives you a convenient and useful
way to edit while actually controlling the VSTi.
n Make sure to execute the [STORE] (page 6) operation before turning off the MOX6/MOX8 instrument.
Otherwise the editied Template data in the instrument will be lost.
8.After your editing session is finished, select [File] [Save] (or [Save As...]) to save the
bank to a file.
9.Click at the top left corner to quit the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor.
If the edited Bank data has not been saved yet, messages appear prompting you to save it. Save a Bank
file to quit the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor.

Troubleshooting
Even when I click the triangular button at the right of VSTi Select/Input box in the Edit
window, the VSTi plug-ins registered to the DAW software are not shown as expected.
The MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor may not properly recognize the VSTi registered in the DAW
software. Select [File] [VSTi Database] [Full Scan] to search the VSTi information (page 11).
The parameters set on the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor are not displayed on the
MOX6/MOX8.
The display on the MOX6/MOX8 is based on the information sent from Cubase (see the illustration
above). Start Cubase and select the corresponding VSTi within Cubase.
Even when I change the VSTi on the DAW software such as Cubase, the Control
Template on the MOX6/MOX8 does not change corresponding to the newly selected
VSTi.
The VSTi-related information is obtained through the Extension software (see the illustration below).
Make sure that the latest MOX6/MOX8 Extension is installed.
Make sure that the VSTi name displayed on the DAW software is the same as the one shown in the
VSTi Select/Input box (page 7).
Data transfer between the MOX6/MOX8 Remote Editor, MOX6/MOX8 and DAW software:
Turning the Knobs on the MOX6/MOX8 affects Remote parameters other than those
intended for control.
In Cubase, remove the checkmarks of “ALL MIDI Inputs” corresponding to MIDI Ports 2 and 5 for the
MOX6/MOX8 instrument.
Even when I click the triangular button at the right of Control Parameter in the Edit
window, the appropriate Control Parameters are not shown.
Make sure that the VSTi is correctly selected in the VSTi Select/Input box (page 7). If you have input
the VSTi name directly, make sure that the spelling is correct and the placement of spaces (if any) is
correct. We recommend that you select the VSTi by clicking the triangular button at the right of VSTi
Select/Input box, instead of inputting the VSTi name directly.

On the DAW software other than Cubase, the set parameters are not controlled.
The Remote control functions are available only for Cubase. Set the Remote/CC buttons (page 7) to
“CC.”
Make sure to select a parameter except to “Cubase” on the Daw Select display of the Utility mode in
the MOX6/MOX8 instrument.
Even when I select another track on the DAW software, the VSTi to be controlled does
not change; instead, the VSTi which is assigned to the previously selected track
remains under control.
When using Cubase, select [Editing]-[Project & Mixer] on the Preferences dialog, then checkmark
both “Sync Project and Mixer Selection” and “Enable Record on Selected Track.”
When using Cubase, select “Yamaha MOX6/MOX8” in the Remote Device Setup window, then select
Port 2 for the MOX6/MOX8 as the MIDI Input/Output.
Make sure to set the MOX6/MOX8 instrument to the Remote mode. (page 5)
