Everyone has their own technique for setting up registration files, and there is no right or wrong when it comes to using this incredible feature. In my case, I prefer using each button in the 3000's bank of 8 as a single song file, and using this technique, it allows me to name each button with that song's name. The greatest thing about registrations, especially with Yamaha keyboards, is their versitility. Lots of options, each of which can be saved independently, and most of which can really enhance your performance. The only unfortunate thing about registrations is many owners never explore all the possibilities the keyboards have to offer. Much of this is because of the poorly written instruction manuals. Thankfully, Joe Waters at PSR-Tutorial has provided PSR users with lots of great, well written lessons that makes the learning curve a lot easier. Joe posted my personal registrations today, some of which I believe forum members will find interesting. However, the Brown Eye Girl and Johnny B Goode registrations will only work if you have the user styles I link to those individual registrations. If you want them, email me and I'll be more than happy to send them via return mail. Additionally, some of the registrations are transposed--mainly for my convenience. Therefore, you may wish to transpose them back to the key of "C" and resave them for your own playing or singing preferences. Enjoy, Gary

Bill... Let me take a crack at this. I think I understand what you are trying to do. When I was using the PSR 2000 I had a similar dilemna.
First...so you don't lose all the stuff you have in USER, copy it all to a floppy.
Then delete your USER file completely.
Now...load into the USER file the styles or other data you need that are on the floppies that have your "original" stuff.
If you already have the registrations you need on a floppy, they will link to the styles in your USER file. If they are on more than one floppy, consolidate them onto one floppy so you don't have to keep changing disks.
If you are going to do a "set" or whole gig of originals, this will do the job.
Now, here is the downside...but it is workable: When you want to go back to the original data you had in USER, you will have to do this process in reverse...deleting the files from USER for your originals and reloading those that you saved on the first floppy.
The process takes a couple of minutes to do it, but it can be done on a short break.
That is how I was doing it before I got the PSR 3000.
On the 3K, all of this is unecessary because you can store just about everything you will ever need using a USB storage device such as a thumbdrive or on the SmartCard.
If you have any registrations that link to external style files, you just have to be sure you have them in the USER area. The 3K has more memory in USER than the 2K...but it is no infinite.
Hope this helps.
Eddie

Originally posted by Matteo: Yes Garry Almost only in live play I use registrations,(every button for one song) But did you read on some paper these settings,and have front of you? Only irritant thing is that i must go in register bank/edit and see what is in this bank ,before I chose some of them, if I don't have book. How You use this ? do You always have a book ? regards! Matteo
[This message has been edited by Matteo (edited 05-31-2005).] I no longer use a book. While performing live, you can access the registrations, then press edit to see what's in the selected bank. That's why I categorize each bank so I know what genre of song I'm selecting next. While singing one song, I can be scrolling through the registrations and be ready to select the next song at the touch of a button. It goes very smooth with a little practice and pretty much eliminates dead time between song. Cheers, Gary ------------------ Travlin' Easy

Bill,
You can store hundreds of registrations on a single floppy disk. Additionally, you can store up to 30 style files on a floppy disk and access them instantly via the user button. Load time is usually one second or less from the disk.
You can also set up the keyboard's MFD using internal and onboard user styles, and access time is intantaneos. When I was playing using the 2000 I always had a dozen user styles in the onboard memory, plus 10 banks of registrations and an MFD with 500 songs on it, and I didn't run out of memory. This allowed me to also keep a Gig Disk in the floppy drive, which is similar to having another 30 or more songs ready to go at the touch of a button. Just a matter of planning things out ahead of time, then sitting down at the keyboard and practicing as if you were at the gig.
Good Luck,
Gary

It's a bit confusing what to do.
My psr2000 is out of memory, can't store anything else in User. I don't want to delete what I have (styles, registrations, voices). Although, I guess I could move something to a floppy if need be.
How would you suggest I create registrations (or something) to store settings for a certain upcoming gig of 30 original songs? Any method strike you as the best way to do it?
P.S. This probably is key... I am out of styles memory and maybe half of the styles I need for these songs are NOT on keyboard, they are on floppy. I guess maybe I could move all User styles to floppy so it's empty, then reload any needed styles for these 30 songs into User. Then, create a floppy disk with Registrations for the 30 songs? I'm confused again. Uh... based on what Gary said, maybe I could just ALL of that on one floppy disk? I guess it would it hold, 30 styles and 30 Registrations.
EDIT: Another can of worms. As far as the big picture, I have over 300 original songs. I might have 150 arranged on keyboard. I'd like to have settings for all 150 SOMEWHERE. Point being, song selection for these original songs from one gig to another is different. Suffice to say, the immediate need is to solve for the next (30 songs) important gig. But there will be more gigs and songs change.
