Hi all,

Here's some very nice midi styles for your Ketron. I converted these, but did not tweak or optimise them for the Audya at all. However, they are still great styles indeed.

Enjoy,

Henni

Bernie,
You need the RAR extractor. Mine worked ok.

Henni,
what is the source of these styles? I have thousands of Ketron legacy styles and am wondering if these are duplicates.

Thanks,
Deane

Deane,

Believe me, those are not duplicates of ANYTHING you might have.

Enjoy,

Henni

Update: Okay, I'll let the cat out of the bag - These are the Genos styles that I've successfully converted to the Ketron format. Most of them works perfectly as is - I discovered how to convert Yamaha styles properly at last!

Now if someone would only make the SD9 styles available to me - even one at a time...

Wow!

The latest & greatest Genos styles converted successfully to Ketron and barely a thank you...

Not a single SD9 style made available to me to date despite the fact that I made the SD7 styles work on the Audya when no one else could...

Maybe I'd rather keep all further Ketron style conversions to myself. Especially now that I now know how to convert Yamaha styles properly for the 1st time ever!

What a difference between Ketron & Yamaha users! Sometimes I miss my Yamaha & Yamaha friends.

Hi Henni, thanks for the downloads but I've yet to have any of the Genos conversions or Tyros for that matter, work well on the Audya. They play but the sounds need changing especially Drums. It would take a lot of work to really make them sound good on the Audya.

If you think about it, the Genos styles will never sound the same or as good on the Audya as on the Genos due to the vast difference in on board sounds and effects.

I prefer to spend my time using the Style Modeling feature in the SD40 and SD9 to come up with new styles. That way I know they will sound good but that's just me.

Tx,

I guessed as much. I never thought for a moment they would sound the same, but they form a good basis for those willing to tweak some. I did my best with my HIQ series styles to make other brand converted midi styles sound as good as possible on the Audya, but that took a LOT of work in the midnight hours and I am not getting any younger. I'll keep all my style conversions to myself from now on. Then I only need to soup up the ones I personally like best.

Maybe if I had a Genos or SD9 I would also no longer have bothered to tamper with styles. For now, that's the best I can come up with for the time I'm willing to spend.

Henni
