I just recieved the prs9000 TO HOST cable from Yamaha today.
I downloaded and installed the cbx and song filer programs from yamaha site.
I can play a Song that is on my computer and it does come thur my prs9000 now.
But when I start song Filer program it says can't connnect.
Please explain procedure or direct me to site or post that shows step my step to do it.
Can I download directories on my pc and put them in my prs9000 hard drive thur the cable?
Thanks

please can you tell me where you've downloaded the "song filer" program. I've never heard about such a program for the Psr9000 or 9000pro before.

I don't think, that you can access your keyboards hard drive with this cable. I can do this with my X1, but not with my 9000pro (I would be happy if it was possible).

here is a good yamaha site that has both files:
http://www.yamahapkclub.com/english/download/top_dwn.htm

it says this about the program:

Song Filer V1.00 for Windows

With the Song Filer software, you can receive and transmit data between your computer and your musical instrument. You can also use it to manage the files stored on your musical instrument via your computer.

Hi,

thank you for that link. I've downloaded the program and will try it at home this evening. But I think it will not work for the 9000, because the descripction says:
"Free Software to receive and transmit MIDI data between your computer and your musical instrument. (EZ-30's Flash ROM/ DD-55's RAM)."
Michael

The filer software is only intended for a small select number of yamaha instruments, I dont think it will work with the psr9000 or 9000 pro, or indeed many other psr keyboards. I seemed to remember it was intended for djx and dd machines.

Regards
Simon
