I've had no problems .
As Donny mentioned a number of the members that have had problems appear to be constantly loading other members user files including stuff from earlier model keyboards like the pa1x.
When the PA's load & save as a .set file, the set can include global settings, samples all sorts of stuff.
They probably don't have a choice as a lot of the styles they're sharing seem to be oriental styles which include drumkits & samples.
If one doesn't understand the system & you start loading other peoples stuff, they may be getting in a bit of a mess if they load stuff incorrectly..
When I share I style, I only save the style itself, & warn people to load the style as an individual style , not as a set.
best wishes
Rikki
George, yes thanks for the clarification.
I thought my post would raise a few eyebrows.
As Donny mentioned in another post the PA800 is a great board for live play. Sure it doesn't have the variety of styles that would be ideal or even the great variety of 3rd party sytles that Yammie has. But for the part time work I do playing music it has everything I need and then some.
Rikki each time I make any major changes or additions to my Songbook or STS I back up the data to a .set file. When I get my new board can I just load those .set files without risk of causing a problem? Those .set files do not include any files outside of the what is built into the PA800.
Donny, never thought of myself as the "Sheriff."
thanks for your well wishes.
Cass thanks and yes in SZ time we'll be sticking with our respective boards for sometime. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying that e60 sounds like a great board.
Bottom line is if Yamaha had offered a 76 key version of Tyros2 or even the PSR3000 at the time I owned those boards I may have never strayed from home, I would have stayed with Yamaha.
I like the PA800 enough where I settled on 61 keys back in November. At the time the PA2xPro was a consideration I just didn't want to wait until January for it.
