Today i toyed with an acoustic piano and a clarinet
Added some delay and echo to the piano
Tuned the filter and eq to make the piano more present in the low
Added some more release to the envelope and made attack a bit slower
And then a tiny bit of wah wah..

And then added the clarinet at 50% volume..
And set it to mono.. and disabled damper pedal..
Added some chorus..

Worked very well..
In the end you can layer any sound this way,
Because what i did was actually creating a new sound..

Yes, and what I don't like in Yamaha keyboards, is that it's not easy to use this new sound creation when you want in any style
For that you need to use OTS or REGISTRATION

This is what I want to do, to manage create and select sounds of my PSR from vArranger

Whats wrong witb registrations to just save panel voices? They are easy to recall in another style if you have them organised well

I like to have all my sounds available at any time for any styles, also, I need memory to remember what sound are inside OTS and REGISTRATIONS 1 2 3 4... and this finally limit to only use sounds that are actually previously organised, and never try something else when you have an idea on stage

Good news I can now manage the Yamaha DSP from vArranger, and play with the OTS from Yamaha Styles

Great, Dan. Will this be in a new update?

Yes !
The Yamaha OTS sound combinations are great
This is incredible to see how much effort Yamaha put on the perfection of the sound in every aspect
DSP, EQ, volumes, controllers...
Nothing is neglected
Such a high level of sound programmers and intelligence in their choice !
And they hide all the hard work so the musician can sit and play

This is also the missing point, when they don't really allow you to tune sounds and styles as good as they do

I actually have a PSR keyboard that includes only 2 RIGHT parts

This is interesting to load a Tyros 3 style in vArranger, and play the OTS sounds that have 3 RIGHT parts. The same PSR will sound a lot better

Hi Dan!
What does that mean? That I could use Varranger togher with a Yamaha keyboard and get additional features to the keyboard controlled by Varranger?

When this will be ready, I will use it personally with my PSRA3000 to :

- Play the Yamaha sounds from a second keyboard that is a lot better than the PSR
- Play with Aftertouch. Even if the PSR keybaord does not have aftertouch, it reacts to it from outside
- Try all the OTS from the huge Yamaha style library, and save the best OTS as my favorites presets list to be available on every styles
- Tune the presets to my taste more easily with a big screen
- Be able to play 5 Rights layered instruments together. Not only 2
- Maybe play the styles from vArranger too... later, when it will be as good as the original, as vArranger is somewhere more easy to use for playlists, displaying pdf etc... tuning volumes etc and save... easily
