Can i plugin the USB cable from the XS to my system?. IN that case what will be the job of the 2496?.
I want to have a quality(Professional) recording in home(only keyboard track and bass & lead guitar). These tracks will be recorded in my home and will be given to studio for voice recording and mixing.
What software is recommended? (Cubase or Sonar or Neundo or Protools)
what connection is recommeneded from the XS to PC? (S/PDIF or USB or MIDI)
If i am connecting USB, do i need to change the sound card which supports USB port?

Hi,
Welcome to R.O. If you don't get any good replies here you might want to try a forum that deals specifically with your equipment. These might help if you have not already tried them

Also just a point of etiquette you shouldn't post the same question in multiple forums here. Good luck.
I believe you cannot get audio tracks into your computer via usb
I believe you cannot get audio tracks into your computer via usb from the XS. However, I did just read the XS comes with firewire. You will have to refer to your owners manual on system requirements for your ieee 1394(firewire) to your computer.
You may need a new firewire card so you can utilize the power of it. Use the firewire connection if possible. If not, use the s/pdif which is digital straight to your 2496 card.
The M audio 2496 will be the way you get your audio into your machine, that is both 1/4" L+R input and S/PDIF. I am not familiar with the Motif xs, otherwise I would know exactly what the issue is.
To answer your question about connectivity:
1st choice - Firewire (this connection should be the only one needed for all data)
2dn- Usb + S/PDIF
3rd- Midi + S/PDIF
4th- Analog audio out> mixer> M audio 2496 + Usb or Midi
