Mike, I agree that the inability of the Motif-ES to recognize chords in inverted form is a serious limitation. However, it is not accurate to say you "can't play an inverted arpeggiated Chord." If you "finger" an inverted chord fully while the Motif-ES is in normal arpeggio mode, the inverted chord will be arpeggiated. Of course, chord recognition is not used in normal arpeggio mode.
