I have tried to add the Yamaha Motif ES model on Synthsite for some time now but nothing happens.

How long does it take for the Sonicstate people to put it up?

I think it is the best Workstation out there and a big brother to the mighty Motif Classic!

Anybody else tried to add a model in Sonicstate?

As usual, korg and roland are desperately trying to catch up with yamaha's supersynth, the MOTIF ES: Korg releases TRITON EXTREME and Roland releases Fantom-X (not fantom-s), however, when you compare the specifications of these two with the Motif ES, including the sound quality, there is still NO comparison. MOTIF ES WINS! (save for the color LCD screen)

Ears to the streets' OLDER brother from USA writes:
You are wrong, younger kid brother, ears to the streets... Korg triton extreme was released today on korg website, its lower than yamaha's motif es in almost everything:

Triton extreme still uses HI synthesis, not APRIL! Only added feature is the valve tube. It still has only 16 multitimbral parts, NOT 32 like you mentioned

Motif ES has minimum of 128 notes of polyphony, which can be expanded to 256 or more, using expansion boards, while Triton extreme has only 120 notes of polyphony MAXIMUM (same as triton studio)

Motif ES sequencer is 480 ppq resolution, while triton extreme sequencer is only 192 ppq resolution Motif ES has 175 MB wave ROM, triton extreme has only 160 MB wave rom

Motif ES sampler can be expanded to 512 MB, triton extreme sampler can only be upto 96 MB (same as previous tritons)

MOTIF ES has superb phrase generators, while triton extreme still uses the older korg arpeggiators

Motif ES can have upto 8 insert effects, while triton extreme can have only 5 insert effects

KORG RELEASED THIS SYNTH MUCH LATER THAN MOTIF ES, BUT STILL LACKS COMPARED TO ES. TRTION EXTREME IS JUST ANOTHER TRITON STUDIO WITH VALVE TUBE AND A DIFFERENT BLUE COLOR AND SMART MEDIA CARD INSTEAD OF THE FREAKING FLOPPY DRIVE (TRITON IS SLOW TO CATCH UP WITH YAMAHA)....

ANYWAY, WE YAMAHA OWNERS HAVE TO BE PROUD AND STAND UP FOR THE INNOVATIONS OF YAMAHA...

YES ANOTHER THING I COPY AND PASTE FROM TRITON EXTREME SPECIFICATIONS: * Developed under license of physical modeling patents (listed in http://www.sondius-xg.com) owned by Stanford University, USA, and by Yamaha Corporation.

HAHAHAH SO MUCH FOR KORG...screw korg!

MOTIF ES IS THE MOST POWERFUL EXPANDABLE SYNTHESIZER EVER MADE IN HISTORY...ITS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL MOTIF, AND ROCKS OVER YAMAHA'S LITTLE BROTHERS, KEIO ORGAN (KORG) AND ROLAND...

READ MY REVIEW IN THE KORG TRITON STUDIO SECTION TO SEE THE COMPARISONS BETWEEN MOTIF ES AND THE TRITON STUDIO!

BTW I DON'T WORK FOR YAMAHA, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE COMPANY, I JUST CARE ABOUT THE SOUND QUALITY!!!
