Hi Bernie
Fundamentally the process is as per the first of my two replies. However if you've already got these style files on a floppy disk then there is no initial work to be done on the keyboard. Providing on that floppy disk for each style file there is a .cmp file that will be the one that EMC Styleworks will use to create a Roland STL file.
Bernie, Styleworks is a lot of money and unless you are going into conversion wholesale it is not value for money per style. Have a look on www.createsongstyles.com in the CSS forum area under Roland and you may find a lot of what you need in styles...just a thought...

I would agree that to buy Universal for $500 would be a stretch, however, two years ago I bought Styleworks XT for my Korg(now gone). Klause will let me upgrade to Universal for $150 Euros. Since the Korg version is dead money, I think it is a no brainer to get Universal for these or any keyboard in the future. Is it cost effective; yes,because I have hundreds of styles better than KN factory styles I want, rather than buy more.

Hello All,

Roger - can the EMC convert Technics styles to play on the Tyros 3? I have hundreds of styles for the KN7 and it would be just great if I could use them on the T3.

Look forward to your reply.

Hi Audrey , I used to own a T2 .
I also had the idea of converting many of my favourite Technics styles to Yamaha .

The emc software is very good for copying the exact structure of the file no problem .

The really difficult part is that you will have to do so much tweaking !!! and i mean a lot of tweaking !!!!!! to make them sound good enough to gig !!

In fact in the end I decided to sell my T2 .

This is only my experience and my opinion .

regards ...Giovanni

Giovanni makes a good point Audrey, but providing the Tyros 3 takes STY files then yes EMC Style works will convert...

Hello Giovanni and Roger,

Thank you both for your replies. It sounds as though it's a lot of time consuming work and as you both know, I'm already 'cheesed off' with the amount of 'tweaking' necessary to get the Tyros3 to my liking, so on second thoughts, I'll not be going down that road. Best keep my KN7000 - then I'll always have the originals to use.

Audrey

Hi Audrey,
next time you are in OZ, bring the KN7 and I will make you a good offer for it. (Only if you can demonstrate it for me). On second thoughts, I will buy it unseen.
See Ya !!!
Ray
