Subject: Survey of Motif workstation owners

From: "Steve Cooke" <smcooke@...>
Date: 2006-02-26

Quite a few people on this list own Motif series workstations, especially
those using the PLG150-AN plug-in board.

Backbeat Books were planning to publish a title called Power Tools for
Yamaha Motif, but unfortunately the book has now been cancelled.

When I raised the issue on Motifator.com's online forum, someone from
KeyFax (the people who run Motifator.com) indicated they might be
interested in producing such a book if it could be shown there was a
genuine demand for one.

Personally, I think there's a lot to be said in favour of a paperback
book that brings together a range of illustrated step-by-step
instructions, practical tips and useful tips for working quickly and
efficiently with the Motif series. It's great to have so many online
support resources out there, but there's nothing to beat a
well-written and illustrated book as a handy source of reference.

Anyway, I've set up a poll to help assess the potential market for
this publication and I do hope you'll participate in this if you're a
Motif user.

You can find the poll on MotiForum at http://tinylink.com/?n3Dt5abaoS

Please note that you'll need to register with the site in order to
vote in the poll.

Many thanks.

Regards,
