Converting Yamaha styles to PA4X

Post by orasikh »

Dear Friends
I have a lot of styles from my previous Yamaha s910 and would like to convert them to my PA4x. I would appreciate your advice how to achieve that. I was trying to find MAC version of the Style Work software for my MacBook Pro but invain
Thanks

Yep the program for converting is STYLE XT UNIVERSAL but PA3x/PA 900, PA 600. PA300/ is the latest Style format which is supported no PA4x format!

Hi,

that´s not easy to do...

If the 910 had the possibility to export styles as MIDI ( like PA4X can do it ) it would be more or less easy. But the 910 doesn´t support this.

The only way to do it is to use "CASM-Editor" for splitting the "musical"-part from the "technical"-part. Then you could import it into the PA4X.

BUT : The CASM-Editor works only up to Tyros2 , so most probably not with PSR 910. And : It´s for PC, not for MAC...

Anyway, it would sound very bad... you´ll ned more than a few minutes to adapt one style in that way that it sounds not like "out of a trash can" ( like most "style works converted" styles do... ).

The internal structures are much too different to make a good ! converting work...

Hi

"a lot of" KORG styles have been converted to Yamaha Styles.
How do they realized this operation ?
Is there no way to take the same procedure but on the other way ?

Hi,

converting from Korg to Yamaha seems to be easier, indeed.

Because Korg can export complete styles as MIDI...
