An anonymous source just provided me with the 15 or so CVP209 OTS styles that were missing from the styles I posted. I will post them immediately. Get them while they are hot.

Hi Larry: Many Thanks AGAIN for coming thru for us all again. WOW! This makes the entire CVP209 collection w/OTS . . . .
well almost . . . yeah, I know you didn't want to hear this . . . but . . .

It seems that the style 'JazzBallad1' was posted by mistake, instead of the intended 'J-Ballad1" style. These are actually two different styles, as 'JazzBallad1' is already included as an internal style in the PSR2000. If you can locate 'J-Ballad1' please let us know. With "J-Ballad', we'll have 'EVERY' CVP209 with OTS file not already included in the PSR2000. By the way, were the OTS settings made by Yamaha or were they setup by your anonymous source?

Yes, J-Ballad1 is still missing from this 3 floppy collection of wonderful styles with OTS settings. I will try to get them, but I can't make any promises.

The OTS were created for the CVP209 and happen to translate well onto the PSR2000. I'm sure that they have a way of defaulting to a different voice when the PSR2000 doesn't have a voice found in a style or in an OTS. That is why the styles and OTSs sound so good.

Larry: I just checked the CVP+OTS #5 zip file you uploaded to the Yahoo Groups site and "J-Ballad2" is actually already included. All we need is the "J-Ballad1" file. BTW - Congratulation on your 'new' baby, and I wasn't speaking of the PSR2000 THIS time

Yes, I'm a dad now!

We just had a baby 3 weeks ago. She is even more fun than my PSR2000.

Now that we have the OTSs to these styles, I'm checking them out more. The Cool8Beat is fantastic. The folk rock would be perfect for "Like a Rolling Stone". There are so many fantastic styles. It's just nice to have the OTSs for them because they would take too long to create even if it were a group project. And this way, we don't have to rely on using registration banks to create OTSs for these styles.
Of course, we can easily edit the OTSs and resave the styles with the new setting. Cool!
I'm really digging the Sweet Soprano Sax on the PSR2000. It is really sweet and soulful the way they created that slow attack on it.

Hi Larry,
first of all, congratulations for your newborn daughter; I know that she will grow up as an happy girl, with all the beautiful music she will hear from you.
I have now a technical question, that I have already asked before, but this time I will try to be more specific: since you mentioned the beautiful Soprano Sax of the PSR 2000, can you or any other Yamaha owner please comment about the similarity between the Sweet Soprano Sax (and others Sweet Voices) in the PSR 2000 and the PSR 9000? I really loved the 9000 woodwinds and organs and I am thinking to add a 2000 to my setup, provided its sounds aren't affected by any "sonic compromise" compared to its big brother.
Thanks in advance,
Andrea

Congratulations Beakybird !!!!

I am sure growing up in a musical household will be a creative experience for her.

Thank you for the congrats! Yes, it is really a great feeling cuddling with my three-week old daughter.

Dreamer, it is my impression that the PSR2000 has the almost all the sounds of the PSR9000, but there are about 18 voices that aren't there on the PSR2000. The ones that are there are just as good except for the ones that are actually sampled. I really love the way the PSR2000 sounds. And it is half the weight.

Larry

Congrats Beakybird!

As an "old-timer" in the child-raising business, I can only say, "Best of Luck, and Keep your eyes on the road ahead." Every day holds a surprise.

Regards,
Steve

Congratulations Beakybird,
You better enjoy cuddling that baby girl while you can! Next thing you know they're teenagers! "Dad" can I use the car! Then they're married and gone!
All the Best,
Nobby
