Importing PA4X Resources on a PA900

I have a PA900 that I use for smaller gigs because of the lighter weight and built in speakers.

I got some more PA4X resources (styles and sounds) from a friend, and I want to import some of them to my PA4X, and then use some of them on my PA900 as well.

If I only have the resources in a SET exported from the PA4X, is there any way to import the styles and/or sounds to the PA900?

I know that generally resources aren't backwards compatible, but is there any way to convert them, or otherwise get them to import?

Thanks a lot!

Styles:- "PA4X-MIDI out (export) and then PA900-MIDI in (import)" via a sequencer - a lot of work!!!!

Pete :D

That's what I was afraid of :(

Is there any way to convert a style to be compatible with a previous "generation" of Korg keyboards?

Will either the Korg PA Manager (not sure I'd by it for this anyway) or Style Works software be able to do anything?

Thanks.

I could be wrong but I don't think there is any specific software to convert styles backwards

:D

Hi Friends:

Although the solution provided by Pete (i agree it's a lot of work), you can't get the same sounds on PA900; PA4x have compressed ones and PA900 have less ram for multisamples.-
I agree with Pete a convert backwards it's not posible.-
It's true PA900 its lightweight, but also less benefits.-
Pa4x means a little effort to get the best.-
