Ok, just made some new experiment test with the last available Live Styler:
is full nice working and also can be used with our giga soundbank GM.
in the setup is available to configure the all midi outs ports and also to integrate on same Live Styler engine the VST or SF2 soundfonts.
I will try to buy this EdgeSounds SoniqBear GM120Pro: http://www.ntonyx.com/sf.htm
for hear IF this XG banks can cover the yamaha styles sounds too.
the best way is to clone the Tyros 3 under Giga Format with the extreme sample converter, but at this moment our sound designer have cloned only the 70%, need some more time for complete it.
About MS arranger, the qranger have a own format, like a session SEQ file and is not compatile with other styles.
For loading other brand styles, we have first to use the ENC style converter and use the Export to SEQ midifile format and then import on Qranger: http://www.lionstracs.com/demo/qranger/QrangerEMCmulti.wmv
the work then is to mixing again the all volumes and setup the correct sounds IF you will not use the basic giga GM sounds.
with the Live Styler can be one interesting features, because then you can only copy the yamaha styles on the MS Hard disk and play it all direct, without any modification.
From our side, we can editing the MS arranger interface to manage the TWO arranger enines in realtime: Qranger and Live Styler.
If one style have the .QTR ( qtractor) extension, the style will be played in qranger, is the style have the .psr extension, will be played from Live Styler. http://www.lionstracs.com/demo/qranger/msqrangermain.jpg
All the OS will be trasparent and easy for the MS user.
Can be interesting for you there?I hope that things like this will be part of the community discovering the possibillities of the MS..... and then sharing thier discoveries with the rest of the community...
This would leave MS with delivering the sounds and tools, and the community with adding new options which can be sounds, styles, tools and even more....
As said before..Linux is a community thing, and so should the MS be...
Advice..... create a MS package that people can install on any PC they want (with standard specs) so they can toy around with the programs and tools and find out more about the lovely heart of the MS...
I am sure that when people get accustomed with the MS and a coupled midi keyboard, they will choose a Mediastation for on stage too.....
Share the software, its what made M$, Intel and IBM what they are now.....And people will buy the hardware....
Give the community the tools... and they will create what the MS needs.....killer styles and aplications....You just can't do it all in house ... The project is way to huge and aspiring for that.
