Here are the final Real Styles from the OAS system as with the introduction of the OAA (Open Art Arranger) it’s unlikely that any more will be made for the OAS style system. (The OAA is completely different format that is not recognised by the OAS style section or any conversion programs)
As additional information the OAA completely replaces the OAS style system, fortunately it can read older styles, amongst others.

Interestingly although new OAA styles are constantly added during the many free updates, none (As far as I am aware) feature the Real Drums.

I listened to a couple at random (bossa and disco) and they are embarrassingly awful. They would have shamed my E-20 twenty years ago. Sorry and all that.

Am I totally missing something here? Am I hearing the same thing everyone else is hearing??? Are these supposed to be styles that showcase what a Wersi sounds like "currently"

Bill.., all do respect.. IMO those styles were awful when you compare them to what's out there by the major three.., and not just how the style was programed but the sounds used were medicore at best. When someone said a long time ago "Disco is Dead" Wersi has found a way to kill it all over again. That Disco style was horrible!

I'm sorry Bill.., you and I have totally different perceptions of what sounds good I guess.

I don't know about you guys.., but Wersi is WAY out of the game IMO. What a joke! Are people in the USA buying these things?

Seriously..., if this is the level of style quality that a person is looking for..., I say save yourself 15 grand and buy a Casio instead. No joke.., I've heard better sounding and better programed distorted guitar parts on higher end Casio's Bill.....

Normally I don't like to pile on but.......these are awful. I don't know what to compare it to, except maybe version 1.0 of Band-in-a-box.

Read the post, the previous posts http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/018758.html and the reviews I have posted recently http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum37/HTML/018680.html

Then have a look at this link www.live-styler.de

Which should answer all your questions?

Bill,

Are these third party styles that were converted and used on the Wersi? If so they must be triggering only GM/GS sounds because these styles sound like crap to me. I have a Wersi Abacus Duo Pro and if it sounded like this I'd never use it.

I think you are doing Wersi a great disservice because anyone who hears this will think that is what the Wersi sounds like which isn't the case. The Wersi has some amazing sounds in the factory library, none of which I've heard in these style demos. Could you clarify what these styles are and if they are all GM/GS based?

They are all OAS 7 Factory Styles.

Look up the names using Quickload and you will find them. (Most of them are also under the standard style buttons level 1)

If you have read my review you will know what I think about OAS 7 compared to OAS 6.

Regards

Bill

No offense, Bill, but nobody is posting the demos for the E20 any more, or a PA50 or earlier...

The only thing that has any relevance to this forum is a comparison of the LATEST, greatest stuff. Not a walk down memory lane (unless it is annotated thoroughly - you have a tendency to post stuff and expect us to track down the details of how relevant it is).

Point us to the 'latest, greatest' from Wersi Abacus. Or at least do a LITTLE more to explain what is up and why...

Sounds are not the issue, as OAS 7 uses both the Hypersonic sound engine, (All the new voices) and the Creamware scope system for the rest.

Styles, well as has been said in the reviews, the OAS style engine is about 9 years old (Yes there have been improvements during that time, but none that make a major difference in sound) consequently you will need to hear the OAA (Which is a totally new system) to know what Wersi modern styles sound like.

Point to note, if you listen to any of the professional artists (The ones that play the instruments from local pubs to shows, concert halls and football stadiums) then up until recently (Now the OAA is more established) all of them used there own sequences or setups rather then the OAS styles.

BTW all the Real drum styles use audio loops for the drums, not drum kits.

Regards

Bill

I think these Wersi posts are an elaborate practical joke. It's the only explanation.
