how to change style without changing keyboard set

Post by AlanETM »

I want to change the style on a song which has been saved without changing the keyboard set.
If I go to song book and the write page and change the style the keyboard set changes.
How do I stop this happening?

Select your song
In SONGBOOK, IN THE "WRITE" (BOTTOM) TAB:-
...Under STYLE/SONG change to the new style
...UNDER KEYBOARD SET uncheck "WRITE" (keyboard sets will remain the same)
...Press WRITE to save changes

...?
Pete has explained well the process if in Songbook, you want to keep the style without changing the keyboard set [1-4]

On the other hand, in Style mode, if you want to change the style and keep the four keyboard sets unchanged,
go to the Global > General Controls > Lock > Control page and lock Keyboard Set 1-4, (see screen shot below).
When this lock is closed, the four currently selected Keyboard Sets are preserved, when choosing a different Style or SongBook Entry.

Hope that helps.

If you turn off the panel button STYLE TO KBD SET, the keyboard set will not change along with the style

This action does not work when using SONGBOOK songs.
Also this action will only prevent the "current" KEYBOARD SET from changing and not the 1-4 keyboard sets with the style.
