Hi Fran,
I agree. I was originally going to try & rename the the.cst's to 8beat etc, but I decided against it. If anything ever goes wrong and I've got it listed on spread sheet or database it's just a case of looking the styles (.cst's) up & reloading the .cst's back into the custom style area and resaving. Plus I prefer to know which keyboard they originated from.
I've also kept the individual .cst's in matching folders in the computer. ie all the 8 beat .cst's are in one folder, 8 beat ballad in another etc , along with the spreadsheet page to identify them. If I accidently overwrite one in the KN I can just load it back in.
It makes it easy to keep them organized plus gives the ability to add more as you go.
I decided to keep a 32 meg card just for keeping the KN reprise styles plus the ones I bought over the years. I use the 32 meg card just for auditioning styles when I'm looking for a style to go with a song.
I've got a 64 meg card that I'll use when I finally start organizing the styles for particular songs.
Apparently there's software available for organizing styles , but with the Aussie dollar being so low, it makes it too expensive at the moment. So far my system seems to work, though the SD card system is a bit of a learning curve. I'm forever sorting styles. My husband thinks I'm nuts (heehee)
Glad to hear you got yours sorted out, I'm just about there. It was wonderful of Technics to give us all the previous styles.
best wishes
Rikki

Rikki,
I have done the same, using a Works Data Base. A hard file makes it easier for me to track a particular style.
The Technics 7000 Internet page may want to include this. Save a lot of work for thier 7000 Fans.
