anyone try these S970 converted audio styles on S950 yet?........
I haven't had a chance yet just wondering if it's an improvement over the original ones on the S950 ..?

Hi DNJ,

Tx for the styles. Always welome

The S970 onboard styles mostly sound better on the S950 unconverted, as those unclude the new effects on the guitar voices which is quite good. I would really like an unconverted copy of the above. (buildtofly@yahoo.com if you maybe would) The S950 plays most of those S970 modified voices accurately as is. There are very, very few styles with any voices in it that the S950 cannot play. (maybe four of five only)

In my opinion, the only reason the S970 sounds better than the S950 is because of the better & newer mix of it's styles. I feel a LOT better now. The S970 does not have the Tyros human choir voices, so no big deal really.

Oh yes, & off course there are a few new DJ loops & dance multipads. But then these also play well on the S950. As for the other new functions: I really have no special need for them. So for me, coming from the S950: it's either a Tyros 5 or no upgrade at all.

I say again, one of the reasons I like Yamaha is the fact that the styles of the newer models play reasonably well on the older models. With i.e. Ketron, this is not even possible as it seems you can play the older styles on the newer models, but not the other way around. They are actually shooting themselves in the foot with this limitation they put on their newer models. No wonder Yamaha is doing so well with their sales in comparison. There should be ABSOLUTELY no reason why the SD7 styles should not also play well in the bigger, flagship Audya apart from greed which works against them in the long run.

I think that the S970 has 8 more Mega!Voices but they're all guitars, basses, and strings. No new category of Mega! Voice. So the styles should sound fine on the S950. Many of them will sound a little better on the S970 because of the Real Brushes and because of some additional DSPs.

The dance styles might be another story. I don't play them, but I notice that there are many new synth sounds on the S970.

Hi again,

I think I can safely state that Yamaha has successfully made a major shift towards making the new PSR S970 also more attractive to the much younger players. Much, much more newer & more modern stuff on there than ever before in any previous PSR series. Well done Yamaha!

Will not work, because those dance styles are miles away from what the younger people think is dance music

Bachus, how about providing us with some of your examples.

Hi Dnj,

I shared these somewhere. However, I would like to give credit to the person who extracted & assembled these as it is a LOT of work. If you care, please let me know in private at my email as per above. I always give credit where it is due.

Even only a first name will do for my purposes.

Thank you so much,

Henni

Tx, I'll go read and give the person his credit due.

Hi again Dnj,

No one over at that thread knows who the author is. I'm still searching & you're the only one in the know.

Those are indeed the S970 audio styles converted to the S950. Not the Tyros 5 audio styles as I already have those. Neither the onboard S950 audio styles.

Someone went through a LOT!!! of work to create these. I shared his work & I cannot even give the man proper credit. It really is a shame though.

In any case, I realize anew Yamaha is the absolute master when it comes to styles. Just in the last three weeks, I found a zillion very, very good new styles for my S950. This more than makes up for the new SD7 & S970 which I cannot afford at the moment. I too have my share of excitement amidst all of this!
