squeak_D Senior Member Registered: 10/08/00 Posts: 4715 Loc: West Virginia	Hey everyone this is a little off the topic, but Yamaha did something really odd to me today. I went to check in my post office box and I found I had a package waiting for me to pick up at the counter. Well the package was a rather large yellow envelope shipped directly from Yamaha. I opened it and inside was a video instructional manual to the new Yamaha Motif. Well I don't own a Yamaha Motif, and this video manual is strictly for users and owners. It even has a $30.00 price tag on it. How in the world did Yamaha screw this one up? Why would they send me a video manual to a keyboard I don't own? I never asked for it, and how did they know to ship it to my PO Box? Anyone one else find this odd?

The second time they sent me the EX5 manual. I wrote to them in frustration and finally got what I asked for. Nevertheless, they were responsive (unlike KORG) and very polite all the time. Shiral

Well, I have and at that website you can register with Yamaha on the front homepage of MOTIFATOR.com With this, recently the administrator of MOTIFATOR.com announced on the forum that those who registered at MOTIFATOR.com will receive a FREE (that's right, FREE!) video manual in the mail! Believe it or not, MANY people on MOTIFATOR.com forum received a free video manual! If you want to have proof, go to their website at http://www.motifator.com click on "MOTIFORUM" and go under their "OFFICIAL NEWS" at their forum. You'll find a post from the administrator with the information about receiving a free video manual! So, it's not a mess up, but a generous giveaway from Yamaha! Isn't that cool? Well, I think it is! Hopefully, I answered your question. Did you watch the MOTIF video that says "GET MOTIFATED"? I've heard it is VERY useful and tells A LOT about the MOTIF, after all it is 2 hours long! Well, I hope you enjoyed you Christmas! Have a fun and peaceful Holiday!
