If you are a little bit curious about how the yamaha megavoices are sounding with the Ketron SD2 and vArranger, you can listen it here :

The original discussion was here, where a french man posted some yamaha styles from his Tyros KB and mp3 recordings, and asked me to play the same styles with vArranger and Ketron SD2

The mp3 is the sound you get directly out of the box without any tweaking on screen.




I also want to inform you that now vArranger can play Ketron, Yamaha and Roland styles, and that a new virtual synth will be added to vArranger very soon.

It will start with a minimal but correct soundbank and then we will improve the sounds.

The SoundFont format will be available later?

Another great news to come :

When you are controlling the software with a KORG nanokontrol 2 , (or any compatible controller) you will have the LED FEEDBACK from vArranger. That mean that if you select the variation B, the led of variation B will light, exactly like on hardware arrangers.

Great news Dan......appreciate your efforts...Merry Xmas

Good stuff Dan
Long time no talk
Hope all is well
Happy Holidays...

Dan, would it be possible in future to do more than the intro, a couple of bars of only one Variation and the Outro..?

Without a couple of chord changes, and a fill to a new Variation, it's kind of hard to hear how successful the translation, and the overall vArranger is actually working. Those transition points are usually the place any weirdness tends to show up.
