Hi

I just stumbled over the description of what seems to be the ultimative keyboard.

This arranger has been patented at April 15 this year. Can't wait to see it!

Enjoy ;-)

Hi Jorgen,

If this is a legit patent, I would LOVE to know who/or what company lodged it??

Dennis

Yamaha...(see Assignee listing in the right-hand column).

Thanks, I saw that but didn't realise that was the company who lodged it...Cool.. Be interesting to see how this develops.

Band in a Box does pretty much the same.
There is also other software available that has similar features.
The patent looks like it refers to hardware, so it will be interesting to see how it compares to the software already out there

Web Patents.... USA people like just WEB patents all what they dream when they are sleeping and then maybe only 0.1% of this patents become a prototype or a real products.
Fortunally this all USA web patents in Europe and Asia are not covered and we can simple read the ideas and make a real products without pay any Fee.

Anyway..the features are really interesting IF they can then realize this hardware/software in short time...
For this all new features need for sure the power of one good PC CPU and amazing OS developers...forget under windows...is not possible at all.

i told before..you have to waiting the Tyros 5 Pro, 76 keys...for sure will make this all features...
For sure then Diki is the first one that will order and replace the G-70....)

Now why on earth would anyone want to provoke DIKI????

I don't want to provoke DIKI at all!
DIKI is only the best specialist on arranger know how and for sure can find some wrong on this all new future arranger features.
Or for sure will ask: STYLES STYLES STYLES....
don't worry...on Tyros 5 Pro you will get the BEST styles available on the world!
Maybe in less than 10 years you can enjoy it..let we see...
cheers

Actually, if you read the patent, it states that you can take an ordinary style and then the patented algorithm will add variations to it to make a new type of style using any of the available tracks.

Isn't this similar to the Korg Karma technology? Only Yamaha is applying it to styles in an arranger.

So the big question is; is this being introduced in the Tyros 3?
