Q:
My optical output is not working on my Motif.Why?
 
A:
The devices you are trying to connect to have digital inputs that look similar to Motif's TDIF digital output but they are ADAT light pipe digital inputs. This is an 8 channel proprietary Alesis digital interface. The output on Motif is Stereo TDIF.

You need to connect Motif 's digital output to a stereo TDIF input for it to work.

SPDIF ( Sony Phillips Digital Interface ) is a 2 channel stereo digital audio interface format.


TDIF ( Tascam Digital Interface) is an 8 channel digital audio interface format.
